Fire bursts from the hull of the Hindenburg

A curved edge of the great hull crosses the picture from the upper left; beyond it, brilliant white fire and smoke boil out in a mass that fills most of the frame, with burning scraps of the covering falling away. On 6 May 1937, as the Hindenburg came in to moor at Lakehurst after a crossing from Frankfurt, the hydrogen in her gas cells caught fire; within little more than half a minute the ship was on the ground.
