Disney has a real racket paying people bargain basement wages and still has them caring about the job. Happiest place on earth, right?
I think this was less “caring about their job” and more “caring about people”. Yes, it sucks that he was injured on the job, and will likely end up spending a ton in medical bills, ongoing health issues, etc… But people don’t tend to jump in front of danger just because it’s their job.
I’ve done similarly stupid things on the clock to prevent people from getting injured. Not because I was worried about my employer, but because I didn’t want to see people get injured. If it was just gear getting damaged, I’d stand back and watch it go; the company has insurance for that. But it becomes a sort of trolley problem when you see someone (or a group of people) about to get injured, and decide to do nothing to stop it.
And based on the audio, the audience doesn't seem to realize the boulder is off track.
That "it's coming right for us" is way too upbeat to sense any danger.
I used to study acting in New York, they were always trying to recruit actors for a 'role' in their retail store in times square, while paying minimum wage and ignoring student schedules.
