Btw, hydrogen burns BLUE (it has a blue flame when burning) But the hindenburg's fire was ORANGE and RED. This means hydrogen was NOT the cause of the fire. Instead, the pretty much rocket fuel paint was at fault for the massive blaze.

    while this is completely wrong - the hindenburg had no such "metal paneling" as that would be far too heavy, a waterproof coat of paint simply allowed static electricity to build up on its skin and cause a spark; and your confusing explanation of hydrogen not being the cause of the fire despite it obviously being the cause of the fire, a thin skin of paint would not have caused quite the explosion that it did - it is still good to see fascist trash go up in smoke. good riddance

    No, the Swastika was put on it because Hitler wanted the Hindenburg to have it on the tail fins.

    I thought the hindenburg just had the German cross and not a swastika
