on 8/2/2008 You're not dropping any weight on your right foot when you step across. Tai Otoshi means "body drop," it is your weight dropping that makes uke fall. In this clip all I see is tori stepping across and pulling uke around with the hands. Try moving the kuzushi off uke's little toe, stepping across, dropping weight with the right foot, and projecting the hands out rather than around in a circular (garuma) fashion.
