The German passenger airship Hindenburg seconds
The German passenger airship Hindenburg seconds after catching fire, May 6, 1937. At 200 feet above the ground, flames erupt on top and in the back of the ship. It descended as it burned, reaching the ground as a metal skeleton after the fabric covering burned away in less than 30 seconds. (BSLOC_2015_14_188)
