Hindenburg Disaster Photograph (May 1937)
for more threads like this one : http://www.documentingreality.com/fo...me-line-45276/ It is said this picture killed an industry. On May 6, 1937, the Hindenburg dirigible exploded killing 35 of the 97 people aboard. The incident killed the zeppelin travel industry, which was, at the time, considered the safest mode of air travel available. The funny thing is that it wasn’t the worst zeppelin accident but the only one caught on camera

I didn't realize that only 35 people were killed here...I thought it was all of them on board!

Re: Hindenburg Disaster Photograph (May 1937)
and adding to the fact that the disc where they were recording was running slower causing his speech to reproduce at a higher pitch when the disc was played back at the correct speed, this guy's was known for having a deep low voice.

The only swastika to ever fly over the United States was on the tail of the Hindenburg.
