When Britney Spears fell down during a video shoot for "Outrageous" earlier this month, the impact was immediate.

Her fall has set off a chain of events that's resulted in the cancellation of her summer tour — something insiders are estimating will cost her as much as $1 million a week in lost revenue from ticket and merchandise sales (see "Britney Busts Knee, Complicating Video Shoot And Tour").

But what of the fall itself? Still pictures from paparazzi showed a play-by-play of the incident but failed to capture the essence of the moment — the onset of injury, the expression on the singer's face, her puzzled dancers' reactions as they reached to give her a helping hand. However, MTV News has procured footage of the incident, which gives more of a sense of how sudden the injury was and how Spears reacted, through a local band shooting footage on the same street.

 
  "Britney Cancels Tour"), there's no word yet if her video for "Outrageous" will be scrapped as well, or what would be required to salvage the footage already shot.
