Hindenburg Disaster

Original - The Zeppelin LZ 129 Hindenburg catching fire on 6 May, 1937 at Lakehurst Naval Air Station in New Jersey.

Reason

Well-known image of the destruction of the German Zeppelin Hindenburg. I don't think it's up to FPC quality, even given its age, so I promoted it here, where I think it's a shoe-in anyway. Happy !voting.

• Strong Support Wow, the Hindenberg. Strong support for a picture documenting a significant historical accident. The photo has great encyclopaedic value. Elucidate ^{(light up)} 14:40, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
• Support. I wonder if the video of this is freely available? I have viewed it on the internet, though not sure of licensing, but if so that could be good for FPC. --jjron (talk) 15:31, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
