I wonder what the British Board of Film Classification would think. Seems people are more worried about sex, bad language and fake violence than watching somebody die. Nissan probably has no idea that they are linked in this way.

I also saw the footage of them rolling his corpse on the ground, to deafening shouts of, "Allahu akbar". Apparently, there's some of his former "rats" and "cockroaches" dragging his body as well.

I was given a PSA about second hand smoke before the clip. The dangers of this world are myriad.
