Epic Stunt Spectacular
Exploding Nazi Plane
Extras needed on the set for explosive action with Indy and Marion!

More lights, more sounds and plenty of action await guests at the "Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular!" in Disney's Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World Resort. Following the installation of all new state-of-the-art lighting, sound and other technical show enhancements, Indy and crew are wowing audiences with earth-shattering crashes, fiery explosions and other glimpses into the art of movie-making.

"Guests see completely rebuilt scenes -- we even have a new airplane," says show producer Joe Kivett. "But mostly, the show reflects the incredible technical advances that weren’t around when the show opened in 1989."

Inspired by the blockbuster film "Raiders of the Lost Ark," the show recreates edge-of-your-seat scenes with 17 stunt performers demonstrating techniques Hollywood uses to fool moviegoers into thinking a favorite celebrity has taken a punch, fall or bullet. The sequence of scenes lasts 32 minutes and is staged in a 2,000-seat amphitheater allowing guests a close-up view of the action. From the audience, 9-10 volunteers are selected at the beginning of each show to participate as extras.

Professional stunt performers are joined by the "extras" wearing costumes native to the Middle-Eastern setting. They act as bystanders while Indiana saves Marion, the heroine in "Raiders of the Lost Ark," from the machine-gun fire of German soldiers and an out-of-control truck that explodes on impact.
