Is it flat like a deflated ballon or did it just hit the ground hard?

Looks kinda like you took a big old Vlasic Dill Pickle with a big wart on the bottom and squished it onto a cheese grater at about a 45 degree angle with a lot of pressure.
Envelope is still holding gas is the part that is not all mooshed up.

Whoa. That is right over here, a few minutes away from me. I saw the blimp flying earlier. I never heard of it crashing before.
