yes Robert earl Davis jr. (DJ SCREW) DiED in 2000 of a codine (dranK,lean,purple soda, Texas oil etc. ) over dose
It may have helped lead to WWII but the main reason for the cause as the Treaty of Versalies which blamed Germany for the problems in WWI Hitler was not happy the German was blamed and had to pay a lot for damages
The Hindenberg was a rigid airship that exploded in Lakehurst ,New Jersey, in 1937. It was puportedly being developed for commercial transport.
No, there was no escape plane on the Nazi propaganda airship known as the Hindenburg.
Even if there was one, the passengers would not have been able to reach it in time. Hydrogen is highly flammable. The moment the first flame, by whatever caused the disaster (we still don't know for sure) touched the hydrogen, it started to burn up quicker than a rag doused in gasoline.
Whether you believe it was a design fault, an accidental spark, a deliberate attack to stop the Nazi propaganda (the Hindenburg was being used by the Nazis to show off air superiority), whether it got caught on the mooring mast which ripped the balloon, static electricity and so on, the Hindenburg burnt up in less than thirty seconds. It would have taken two minutes to board the plane, another two minutes to fire up those old engines and an incredibly good pilot to not hit the ground at such a low docking height.
You can see actual footage of the actual disaster, in which you can also see there is an absence of an escape plane.
Some airships were designed to carry planes, such as biplane class planes or scout planes, and were used for a short time as airborne aircraft carriers.
For example, the USS Akronand the USS Maconwere two such airships used for this.
However, no, the Hindenburg did not have an escape plane on board. Even if it did, it would not have made any difference (aside from adding more fuel to the fire).
Yes. 35 passengers and one member of the ground crew died on Thursday, May 6, 1937, when the German passenger airship LZ129 Hindenburg caught fire and was destroyed as it was attempting to dock at the Lakehurst Naval Air Station, Lakehurst, New Jersey.
the mythbusters tested this and the came up with 2 reasons
1. the upper coating of paint had traces of thremte
2.it was filled with hydrogen
these combined mad it burn in under barely 38 seconds
The gas was Hydrogen.
Jack Snyder of the Camden Courier Post took some of the first Photo's of the disaster getting them to press before even the NY Times.
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.
