Also of a disastrous end, the zeppelin burst into flame as spectators watched it attempt to land in lakehurst, new Jersey on may 6, 1937. In under a minute, the Hindenburg was gone, people jumping from Windows to escape. However, only 62 of the 97 crew members and passengers on-board survived. The exact cause of the disaster is still unknown and remains a fascinating historical mystery perfect for this series.
