"This gas" is hydrogen, correct? The property that contributed to the Hindenburg Disaster is flammability.
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.
The Hindenburg was filled with the element Hydrogen, which is extremely flammable. A spark ignited the hydrogen, which caused the skin of the zeppelin to burn furiously. The hydrogen fueled the inferno.
No, the Hindenburg was filled with hydrogen, not helium. Hydrogen is highly flammable and was a contributing factor to the 1937 Hindenburg airship disaster.
passengers and hydrogen
The Hindenburg airship was filled with hydrogen gas, specifically about 7 million cubic feet of hydrogen. This highly flammable gas was used as a lifting agent to help the airship float.
No, the Hindenburg airship was filled with hydrogen gas, not helium. The use of hydrogen was a factor in the Hindenburg disaster, as the highly flammable gas led to the airship catching fire and crashing in 1937.

Helium was more suitable but not available in Germany before the war.
The Hindenburg should have used helium gas instead of hydrogen gas. Helium is non-flammable, unlike hydrogen, which was a major factor contributing to the Hindenburg disaster.

Hydrogen gas was used to inflate the Hindenburg.
