High-speed video of in vitro fracture of the proximal femur

In vitro sideways fall: fracture was filmed with a high-speed camera (20000fps). The first sign of fracture on the medial side is visible in frame (B). Frame (A) was taken 0.8msec before (B). Fracture is completely visible in (C), 114msec after frame (B)
