Classic.
Oh, and glad you're OK. :)
Also, what camera are you running? The lack of blurriness in the still is remarkable.

Damn, those chain drops... caught myself on my stem with that before. Hope you're okay.
I'm also impressed with the camera.

Holy shit. Chain drop under load? That's no good, had that start happening to my beater commuter recently, get that sorted right away, you don't want to drop a chain under load when you're in front of a bus. Glad you're okay.
And yes, pic is cool.

I used to drop chains frequently till I realized I needed a new chain and cassette due to wear. Every time I pedaled under load it would jump or auto-shift.

I clapped out my rain bike beater's whole drive train. Iron City replaced the crankset, bottom bracket, chain, cassette. That skipping under load up front is really dangerous.

It's from a Go Pro Hero 4 Silver set to its highest video quality setting(which might be 4K I forget right now). I have to delete videos about once every 3 days off of a 64 GB card and charge it about every other day but I figure it's worth it since on other settings it can be hard to catch clear still frames from the video for things like plates.

Did the same on 5th Ave last spring. Front wheel shot to the right I was so off-balanced, broke my rib on the roadside curb after doing a forward flip.
In 2012, my leg shot forward onto the big ring for the same reason, cut into the back of my leg pretty good.
Now I bug the heck out of my bike mechanic to triple-check the drivetrain. So paranoid!

Maybe you guys should consider my approach: never pedal that hard.
