An incident occurred at a Disney theme park involving a worker and a large rubber prop designed to simulate a giant boulder. The worker was involved in a scene where he was preparing to stop a 180-kg fake boulder from hitting an audience. Video footage shows the worker being knocked off his feet by the rubber prop, which weighed approximately 400 pounds. The injury was minor, and the individual is currently recovering. The event highlights the safety protocols associated with live shows and the use of large-scale theatrical props in theme parks. Such incidents are typically reviewed to improve safety measures and prevent future accidents. The use of foam and rubber props is standard in stunt work to ensure safety, yet accidents can still occur when timing or handling misalign with expectations.
