As an American, I never saw this deleted scene in Austin Powers. Apparently it was included in the theatrical versions overseas, but never in American theaters or TV.

But it was a bonus feature on the VHS release, so there is that.
that was mild
yeah, somebody edited it to fade into the deleted scene, but the scene itself was after the credits I believe, in some versions
I always wanted to see this joke in a spy movie. All those henchmen getting wiped out — in the real world you know there’d be issues.
Lots of “serious” movies where twenty hench-guys get killed and then the lead bad guy; “Now I’m getting angry.” Like, there wouldn’t be a few million dollars in fallout from losing 20 guys?
It also reminds me of Tarzan, when a dozen or so natives get killed off by a tiger or falling off the narrow cliffs, the white explorers all group up, count each other and say; “Thank God nobody was injured.”
Wait, this scene isn’t in the US version? Then what about the scene later on where it cuts the headless henchman’s bachelor party?
Edit: Clarification! I’m in the UK, just confused about how the movie is edited in the US version… Sounds screwy! 😛
It was after the credits on my VHS
I knew that kid’s name was Billy before she even said it.
The best henchman scene ever.

I see why it was cut. It felt a little flat to me.
[Clerks did this way better.](https://youtu.be/iQdDRrcAOjA?t=59)
There was also a second scene much like this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hD3w_VdTG30

The steamroller scene. I think played by the comedian from madtv, what I personally find funny is that Austin and the woman (idk her name) get off of the steamroller like right after killing the man, like they could’ve just spared his life by walking a few feet.
Wasn’t this a recurrent joke in the movie? Every time a baddie died they show something like that. For example this is another:

The missing lesbian scene.
This movie always reminds me of when deleted scenes and extras were put after the movie/credits on VHS like a bonus track.
There is another deleted scene where Austin Powers hypnotized Christian Slater. I don’t think this was ever included even as an extra in the US version.

It’s not shown in this clip, but Christian Slater shows back up when the evil layer is collapsing. Also instead of “judo chop” Austin Powers would say “Chinese chop”
I feel so bad seeing kids that young be fat
The kid in the scene was a neighbor when I was younger. His name is Bobby Brewer
But it was on the US VHS release.
The actress seemed so familiar to me, so I checked: it’s [Lois Chiles](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001042/), better known for her role as Dr Goodhead in *Moonraker*.
Mirror?
As a Real American, I saw this scene on the bonus features on the DVD. All true patriots own a copy of Austin Powers on DVD.
Pretty sure they broadcast this version when it was on TV here in the UK.
Tthat explains the looks I got from All my American friends every time i referred to that steamroller episode.
Reminded me of Glenn the Gromflomite from Rick and Morty that a fan made a month ago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYbtfzDr_Jw
looks like something out of the Venture Bro’s.
For real? One of my favourite parts of the movie.
Why on earth was it removed?
Damn, that was dark.
Can confirm – this scene was in the film here in Australian cinemas
I saw that in the theater in America… i think
There’s another similar scene where the dead henchman misses his own bachelor party at Hooters and his mates receive the phone call. I wonder if that was cut from the US version too.
After watching the clip I’m ok with that.
This reminded me of Alpha Protocol where after each mission you had a stat to see how many orphans you left.
“Look what I can do!”
*gets ran over by steam roller.
Just confirmed by my French husband, to me, American who had never seen this scene.
No joke TBS did a special when they first aired AP back in the day on a Friday or Saturday night. They showed this clip. I think Rob Lowe might have even hosted the special. I thought about the deleted scene every time I watched AP. I began to think I imagined it because none of my friends had seen it and I never had seen the scene again, until now. Thank you!
I can confirm that scene was in the Australian release.
I was working in a cinema at the time. I think I saw that movie and Mystery Men far too many times.
American here. I knew I wasn’t crazy. Nobody else remembered this scene. Now I know.
Yeah. I watched it on Netflix last week and was wondering where that scene was. In Australia there was also another scene in one of the others where a bunch of one of the henchmens mates found out he died while holding a party for him at hooters.
I remember seeing that scene at one stage, might have been a friend’s copy he brought over.
Personally, it’s a bit weird because in a comedy spy film like Austin Powers, I feel it’s out of place because it’s pretty grim in contrast to the camp attitude all throughout the film.
That was pretty lame :/
Austin Powers is 20 years old now, damn.
Got it on the dvd in europe! There’s another scene like this one btw.
It was funny, but I can see why they deleted it.
Surely the horrific murder was kept in?
I remember seeing this in the cinemas in Australia, but when I’ve seen it aired on TV later it was missing. Was beginning to think I’d imagined it.
This wasn’t it the US release? Being in the UK, this is the scene I remember most from the film.
Oh my gosh. You guys never saw this? This makes so much sense now!! We got this scene in the Australian theatrical version and in the DVD release. So a couple years ago, when Taken 2 was released, I put up a still frame series of this scene, ending with the quote “no one ever thinks how things affect the family of a henchman” and said it was basically the premise for the Liam Neeson movieTaken 2 (which literally is about the family of a dead henchman taking revenge on Liam Neeson).
Post obvs bombed. I DIDNT KNOW YOU GUYS HADN’T SEEN THIS SCENE! Aargh!
Hey, you can’t go humanize people the authorities say are evil.
I used to play G.I. Joes and army men with my brother when we were kids. Every time one of the guys was killed he would make up back stories about how their wife and kids would cry and grow up without a father. It made me feel kinda bad for killing them.
This reminds me of a skit (can’t remember what comedy show did it) where the hideout gets raided on a henchman’s first day.
What?! This was the only redeeming joke from the entire series. This was what put it up in my estimation. Would be fascinated to know why it was removed from the US version.
Dang!! Lucky!!
[Broforce did something pretty similar](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8oJN0ZuGSA) and it was hilarious coming out of nowhere!
