Watch Heidi Klum take a brutal tumble on America's Got Talent Fantasy League set: 'It's just funny'

The model and judge ended up with a "deep" scratch and someone had to "come and glue it shut."

Heidi Klum ended up with a lot more than a bruised ego after slipping and falling on the set of America's Got Talent Fantasy League.

The model, judge, and Halloween icon has shared an exclusive video of her taking a brutal tumble that required medical attention while she was recently shooting the reality competition series.

In the clip, which she unveiled while visiting The Tonight Show on Friday, Klum can be seen holding hands with fellow judge Mel B and waving to the audience when she suddenly falls and lands hard on her side behind the judges' table with an audible thud.

"Are you okay?" Howie Mandel asks, rushing to help a laughing Klum as she lies on the ground.

Mel B exclaims, "That was a fall! You nearly pulled me down!"

Taking the moment in stride, Klum then stands up, fixes her dress and hair, and throws her hands in the air to a loud round of applause from the crowd.

Back on The Tonight Show, host Jimmy Fallon was completely stunned by her quick recovery. "That's a fall," he said, putting his hands to his face. "Oh my god!"

"I know!" Klum replied. "Did you hear Mel? She was like, 'You almost pulled me down.' She told me that four times. Simon [Cowell] just leaned over to me and he's like, 'Make more of it.'"

"But it's so funny, the schadenfreude that happens, you know, the word when someone falls, everyone [screams]," she continued. "It's just funny."

It wasn't all laughs for Klum, though, as Fallon also showed an image of her leg with blood running down it afterward. "It literally looks like a cat scratch, but it was deep," she said. "Someone had to come and glue it shut. Have you ever had something glued shut?"

"…No," Fallon replied after a lengthy pause.

"It's amazing," she said. "They put this super glue in your wound and it just [glues shut] with like a little butterfly thing on it." To prove her point, Klum presented her bandaged elbow and kicked out her leg, revealing two large butterfly stitches on her shin.

"Honestly, it looked funnier than it [felt]," she confessed.

"You can't do this to Heidi Klum!" Fallon declared in a warning to slippery floors everywhere.
