 The Nothing approaches and Rockbiter looks worried, trees hit out in   direction of the camera and in the US version Rockbiter just drives away   with his bike then (7 seconds, probably taken from the material that showed   Rockbiter arriving before). The German version doesnt show him driving   away, but has a different and longer scene following here: Bastian jumps up   in fright after the trees hit out, then the schools caretaker enters the   attic and carries a bunch of teaching material, the man stumbles, falls and   complains. Bastian hides until the caretaker leaves the attic, jumps on his   mattress and continues reading the book then (1 minute, 5 seconds).
