In the stunt show, there is a reenactment of the well-known scene from the beginning of the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark, where Indiana Jones is chased by a boulder after triggering the booby trap by removing the golden idol.

In the video, you can see how the boulder used in the show leaves the track and heads towards the crowd. A cast member then steps in, protecting guests and stops the boulder from entering the crowd.

In doing so, it appears the cast member misjudges the force of the oncoming prop and takes an unexpected direct hit and falls forcefully to the ground. He is helped up very slowly by other cast members, indicating a potential injury.

No further details are available at this time, and no statement has been released by Disney.
