Around 86 years ago, a German airship, the Hindenburg, crashed in Lakehurst, New Jersey. The disaster still resonates, thanks to newsreel footage and the dramatic recording made by radio broadcaster Herb Morrison.
“So there’s no telling what Mayer would’ve done” if he’d stayed, Corbin said.
Photos that Corbin took show the concrete footing of the mast and the guy wires, as well as remains of the foundation of the shed built to service airships.And the visit of the enormous craft was hugely popular with local residents. Thewas 680 feet long, and it was seen by countless people as it flew around Puget Sound during its day-long visit. Then, thousands of civilians converged on Camp Lewis to get a closer look at the airship when it spent part of the day tied to the mooring mast.
“The upper section broke into two pieces, and both of those pieces floated to earth,” Ross said. “The rear section floated down and dragged across, and most of the people that were in that section survived.” Mayer’s grandson Vogel says that Roland Mayer and the other crewmembers somehow managed to decrease their altitude. Then, they dropped a line down far enough to touch the ground in the rural Ohio countryside.
