I couldn't help but feel the resonance between these two events.
The Hindenburg was a showpiece for the Nazi government in Germany. It used extremely flammable hydrogen due to a trade embargo. With ninety-seven people on board plus the ground crew, it is amazing that there were only thirty-five fatalities. This broadcast and the accompanying quote "Oh the humanity" by Herbert Morrison were part of the first nation-wide newscast in US history.
