75th Anniversary of the Hindenburg disaster.

May 6, 2012, 3:12:21 AM by ~The-Necromancer
Journals / Personal

Hello all,

Today is May 6th. This marks the 75th anniversary of the LZ 129 Hindenburg's fiery demise over Lakehurst. While being a major contribution to the end of the "Golden Age" of dirigible construction and services, the disaster itself was sensationalized by film coverage and dubious conspiracy theories. In reality, while tragic, the disaster only claimed 36 of the 97 souls aboard. A horrible accident, but not nearly as deadly as other airship disasters before her. The debate over what precisely caused the ignition that brought down the great ship still rages on today.

Some video resources on the Hindenburg and the crash:

Construction footage and flight with the Graf Zeppelin:

Discovery Channel documentary on the disaster:
Part 1 [link]
Part 2 [link]
Part 3 [link]

We shall never forget the lost lives, nor the dreams of an age now gone. It would be only a few short years before the world itself was lit afire by World War II, laying to waste all the ambitions and hopes of an era.

You are most welcome! It all has a rather surreal feeling to it.
