Last surviving Hindenburg crew member dies at 92
 

BERLIN –  Werner Franz, believed to be the last surviving crew member of the German airship Hindenburg that crashed 77 years ago, has died. He was 92.

Franz was a 14-year-old cabin boy when the hydrogen-filled Zeppelin caught fire and crashed in Lakehurst, New Jersey, on May 6, 1937. The disaster was captured by waiting photographers, film crews and a radio broadcaster on the ground, making it one of history's most iconic air accidents.

My grandfather was actually was there as a boy when the Hindenberg blew up. Pretty amazing story from his perspective. How anyone survived it was a minor miracle.
Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

To survive that disaster and then make it to 92 makes me think this guy knows what he is doing!
