A 30-year-old performer has died during training for the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular show at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida, US.

Named locally as Anislav Varbanov, the stuntman is the third staff member to die at the resort in the past seven weeks.

The death comes just days after a 47-year-old performer died following an on-stage fall during another show, Captain Jack's Pirate Tutorial and seven weeks after a 21-year-old monorail driver died in a collision with another train on 5 July.
