Sabotage - No Flying Car!

After seeing the Sabotage video hundreds of times during the glory days of MTV, I couldn't help but notice there's a big change between the MTV version and the version on the Spike Jonze DVD. It happens after the quieter break-it-down segment about halfway thru, then there's the buildup and a huge WHOAAAAAA! I always recall seeing the ole blue car come flying over the hill right at the WHOA. But on the DVD there's like some dummy being thrown off the roof at that point. What happened? Did MTV censor this video? I personally love up the car shot.

P.S. I found it strange that most of the cursing was bleeped out on the DVD, most noticeably during the Biggy video. Why on earth are the videos censored on a DVD? I'm not a fan of that.

I just rented this like 2 days ago, and I saw the flying car?

I'm not sure what you are talking about.

The Beastie Boys say in the commentary that there was a MTV edit that didnt have the knife bit or the dummy flying through the air and hitting the ground because it was too violent
