Hindenburg Crash complete presentation

Over the years people have seen parts of the Hindenburg crash but nothing as complete as this presentation. The photographs are truly amazing and the aerial shots are nearly perfect. Be sure to click on the link in photo #22, or Video below, to see a silent film of the crash. It's 05:27 in length.

I'm an airship historian and enthusiast, and there's MANY photos in the spread I've NEVER seen before. And, here I thought I'd seen them all!

Apparently Obama is to blame for the tragedy, and for not foreseeing WWII
