I have heard that the “dope” mixture painted on the skin of the craft had chemical similarities to later developed forms of solid rocket fuel.

Great video and fun watching the archivist look for clues to authenticity.

My dad was 10 yrs old in Kansas at the time so I guess he wasn’t even six degrees close.

If Trump were alive they would have blamed him.

But doped fabric has bee around since the unpowered a/c of the late 19th Century (e.g., Otto Lillienthal). It already was "old tech" when the Wright brothers used it and its burning characteristics are long since well documented. If would NOT have burned that fiercely except in the presence of some accelerant, which means they're both theories in search of the theoretical hydrogen leak that no one has yet found a shred of evidence of.

The Mythbusters showed that the special Aluminum Oxide and Iron Oxide colorants in the Hindenburg fabric dope created Thermite that accelerated the fire.

I also know someone in my family who has a private video of the twin towers 2, exploding from a different angle. No one has it. He was working at an adjacent building at that time as an intern for a Tv station and he had the camera. He rarely lets anyone view it as it is very painful to hear and watch.

Only a complete *ss would not speedily release that footage to the public! Disgusting!

Regards,

Bag filled with explosive hydrogen.

Bags can leak.

Static surrounds nearly everything in nature.

Static/spark ignites explosive hydrogen gas.

Bag of gas goes BOOM.

Lesson: don’t ride on a bomb.

I found stills from the same angle, also, I think the movie's camera angle had already been viewed, just not from that particular photographer. Not much of a revelation. The hydrogen ignited and burned, but at least one writer (ex- of NASA I think) researched the components of the outer skin and found it was basically rocket fuel, igniting due to the electrical storm in the area, and that fire spread, rapidly, into the hydrogen. The alternative is, no other hydrogen zeps had the same problem (WW one bullets don't count, obviously).

The cameraman in this instance did the opposite of what many of us phone wielders do today: Remember to aim the damn camera when the poop hits the fan.

His not yet being alive does not matter. They will still try to blame him!

‘Film’ is what the medium was called; the product was called a ‘movie’. Later, the word ‘film’ was misused to represent a movie after the advent of TV. ‘Video’ is a modern term from the advent of digital recording.

It is properly called a movie. Not a film, not a video.

It was Oswald.

Oswald lit up the Hindenburg - ALONE.

"... It would NOT have burned that fiercely except in the presence of some accelerant,"

You mean like hydrogen?

Hi.

Didn't Hitler blame this on the Jews?

Helium was difficult to obtain, so the 3rd Reich used hydrogen.

Boom, sooner or later.
