Is there any question?
The longer version has applause and a shot of the cadets clapping. after 10:20
The Fox video has no applause and the image seems to skip. During that skip we miss the shot of the clapping cadets. The Fox video seems to lose all ambient sound for those few seconds. Either because of a glitch or by an edit on purpose something is missing there.
