What was the difference between the Titanic and Hindenburg disaster?
Well, the obvious answer is that the Hindenburg was an airship (zeppelin), and the Titanic was an ocean liner. Most deaths in the Hindenburg were from fire or jumping from the airship, while most deaths on the Titanic were from drowning or exposure. Finally, there were many more deaths on the Titanic than on the Hindenburg.

How did people feel on the titanic the day of the crash?
Most people were exuberant but an unusually high amount of people were getting premonitions and feelings of dread. Far more than, say, the San Francisco Quake or the Hindenburg Disaster.
What is the most popular Hindenburg theory?
That the enclosed hydrogen gas caught fire and caused the entire "balloon" portion to explode. There is another theory though, and that is that the paint on the balloon part, or "dope", which is designed to keep the gases inside, in the case of the Hindenburg airship, included two of the three main ingredients of thermite, which caused the catastrophic explosion. This theory though, no matter how plausible it may seem, has since been disproved by the Mythbusters, but feel free to ignore their conclusive tests if you so wish.
What characteristic of hydrogen caused the Hindenburg disaster?
Although hydrogen is an explosively flammable gas, indications are that the fact that the baloon was filled with hydrogen was not really much of a factor in the Hindenburg crash. Hydrogen burns very rapidly, and because of its density, flames would travel upwards, and be very short-lived. Most of the deaths from fire have been subsequently attributed to the aluminum paint used on the balloon.
