Airships: How did so many survive the Hindenburg disaster? Of the 97 passengers and crew of The Hindenburg, 62 apparently survived, even though the entire airship lit up like a Roman Candle and was incinerated within 34 seconds.
What child of the 1930s doesn't remember the Hindenburg! That great silver whale, the length of three football fields, its tail emblazoned with swastikas, black on red, that hydrogen conflagration waiting to happen. Since 1936, it'd carried passengers across the Atlantic. Then, 60 years ago this May 6, 1997, it caught fire and was consumed within 32 seconds. The radio announcer wept, Oh, the humanity, as it went down. Yet, miraculously, two out of every three passengers survived. It seemed so obvious in retrospect.
