Seconds From Disaster Hindenburg Part 1

[streaky1992]

why would people even LOOK at a ship that flies the Nazi symbol?

[rrswimmer16]

@streaky1992 Get your history right. Hugo Eckener, the man who owned the Hindenburg, was dead against the Nazi regime. He borrowed money from them to help get a trans-atlantic airline going. The Hindenburg was the first to follow this plan. In return for the money, the nazi's could commender the airship for propaganda flights. That's why there were swastikas on the tail fins.

@neverblameme currently, yes... you should do more research on the development of united states armed forces

[rayj778]

how the heck were there SURVIVORS???

[CasimusxPrime]

@rayj778

They jumped out of the Hindenburg before it got too hot. Although, with the hieght of the blimp, they probably had to go to the hospital for burns and broken bones.

I may be seeing this wrong but, WAS THAT THE NAZI LOGO ON THE TAIL!?

[droidekabakugan1986]

Yes. She was a Nazi zeppelin.

[aliceinchainsburns08]

Yeah it was.

[Goldleader727]

@SonicLOVA55 Charles Hindenburg was actually anti-nazi but the government forced him to put it on the tail.

I like how this guy says "scheduled" - something like sheduled

[DrZenith]

It's the British pronunciation....... I like the way the Americans say "skeduled"!

[GTAstuntman101]

oh, yeah! looool

[Bozewani]

Actually, the borders in 1937 Nazi Germany were the same, It was in 1938, Hitler invaded Austria and what was then Czechloslovakia. In 1939 he invaded Poland, starting World War II. What is interesting to see is that the Nuremburg Laws already went into effect(depreving Jews of the citzenship, :().

[acr08807]

The borders weren't the same. This map is wrong, it doesn't show East Prussia.

[TashkentFox]

The borders are wrong on that map, those are the present day borders of Germany.

[urplatz]
