Topic: The Hindenburg

I find it really interesting. How it burst into flames at New York. Dozens of germans died. I watched a documentry about it last night. I love it! :D

So...you love that a Zeppelin burst into flames and a ton of people died?

what do you expect, we're abunch of sadistic teens. Our minds have been warped to enjoy death by video games. :P

....... To The Hindenpeter!

oh the humanity.

someone had to say it...

It actually crashed and burned in New Jersey.

Either way, it was probably what those Germans least expected.

Most likely, it's not like you would expect a plane to blow up underneath you, but it happens.
I don't understand what this topic is discussing, really.
The Hindenburg exploded and burned...

well, the topic can be widened if you wanna discuss this in terms of chemistry...

Just curious about the point...

I was just wondering.............Sorry, if you aren't interested. I was just wondering if you thought it was cool.....

Real people dying in an explosion caused by incomplete knowlege of the gases...
Not that cool in my book...

I think what green means is that he finds the Hindenburg disaster fascinating or interesting. He just chose the wrong words to express that. 
And just fro the record they knew about the gas, because the Germans used zeppelins in World War one, as well as hot air balloons.
They just had never used them for public transportation.

Our modern society in general is sort of obessed with disasters. Do people remember the Titanic? Over a thousand people died and yet decades later people still talk about this thing or that thing about it. Or what about those that reneact Revolutionary or Civil war battles? People died then too. Its part of culture now.

Yes, I agree

Question: Why, oh why, Green Helmeted Fett, do you have 'The Hindenburg' as your user title? And please stick to one account, it's a little annoying with having you switch back and forth between GHF and Masterchief.

Let me repeat myself from ages ago, in a different topic. I have two user names because 1. - I can go on my dads computer in Edinburgh. And I have one here because this is my home. :)
2. - please stop arguing. :)

Perhaps he feels he will crash and burn when he tries something.....I dunno......

((No offense to anyone here))

??????????????

idk either. and use one account for both computers..

Okay, guys please stop dogging him, okay. If he wants to accounts and we know that he is both of them, it shouldn't be a problem. And plus there is nothing in the rules that say you can't have to accounts as long a we know they are both the same person.
But there is a rule about not staying on topic.

Thank you, Karson.

* back on topic *

I'm asking for people's different opinions and stuff to put on here.

Thanks Green

ROFL!! that was SO harsh.

on topic.....Anyone read Pendragon? the third book was centered around the Hindenberg. It is an interesting story though, in how it happened. Yeah, we are pretty obsessed with death and disasters

who isn't? the media loves it.

Ive read that one.....Its a cool series....I stoped reading them though, kind of unfortunate I think

there good--You should pick them back up, when you get time. There's 8 out, now. 10 total

Is there Hindenburg books? :O :D If so, I want them! :P

You could search for them.

Thanks , Karson! I think you need a karma point after all those pictures and videos. :D

Any more? :O :)

Shoot yeah!

this one is kinda small

The Hindenburg from the inside

Excellent Karson. Very well done, but can you tell us some of the information about the Hindenburg in your own words? :)

Great stuff, guys! Very good! :)

Any more pictures, information, humour about it? ( Anyone apart from Karson. :P )

Over Manhattan

In the control room

those pictures aren't showing up.

Well... I don't know I just know little bit about it

Okay, never mind. I wasn't forcing you. :)

You can just  talk about it and post pictures. :)

The talking doesn't involve talking about the story or information. So don't worry. :) :P

Well, for one I know that the explosion wasn't because the Germans didn't know that the Gas in side the Zeppelin was flammable. They, like the Titanic, over estimated the durability of the ship.

Some people think the guy that wanted to see his dog ( you know? The guy? :) ) think that he was trying to plant a bomb, but I doubt it was that! :D

What?!

Yeah, A guy tried to plant a bomb on the Hindenburg, and that's what some people believe caused it to crash.

No way! They was fling in a lighting storm. The lighting hit the Zeppelin and it caught fire
