How did the Hindenburg go down in flames?
The "doping" of the outer layer of the blimp was EXTREMELEY flammable. The Blimps back then were NOT grounded...Therefore, when they flew it over, after the storm, the static electricity sparked scortching the whole outer layer before the blimp actually landed...That's why the frame didnt catch on fire until the blimp hit the ground....

It was a blimp. The German's just before WW2 had one called the Hindenburg, a passenger ship, that blew up as it was coming into New Jersey from Germany. You can see film of it. One man died, but it looks like the entire blimp is one big ball of fire.
