Rayman 2 deleted cutscene??

So I was messing around with Cheat Engine in the level that razorbeard's cutscenes happen in (three at least), and at one point I died during the cutscene. This restarted the cutscene, but to my surprise it didn't show the first cutscene but the second one.

After some messing around I managed to die a few times in the cutscene and with some cheat engine magic place myself and the camera in the razorbeard cabin, and I was surprised that an unused animation was repeatedly playing. It appears to be an animation of the henchmen that guard his office getting fired (or at least walking away), and razorbeard being sort of angry, although I'm not sure if it's intentional. I wonder why this was removed and what was originally supposed to be in the full cutscene.

Here's a link to a video of the 'cutscene'/animation on twitch
 
Interesting. They seem to be looking for something, or looking out for someone (catching them? Doing what?). And Razorface indeed seems quite pissed. Cool that you found this - whatever other hidden treasures you find buried in R2, I'm first in line at your doorstep to hear the news! ;D
 
"You two go and make sure that this yellow haired pest stays onboard and is in shooting vicinity! Use that blue thing as a bait if necessary!"
 
Haha that's a pretty cool find indeed! I wonder why Razorbeard wasn't sitting in his chair.. That was glitcthy as HEK
 
After some more experimenting it seems that this isn't really a cutscene, but default animations for the actors to play when no correct animation was found. The henchmen animation is used in the cutscene just before entering the echoing caves, but I have no idea what razorbeard's animation is used for :P
