And according to West Egg, that's about $355 million today.

Oh, wow.

Do not think the Nazi party would not have considered doing that.

Right.

The thing is, is like that electrostatic charge, if it had like sparked, it would have had to have sparked exactly where that hydrogen leak was.

And across an 800-foot dirigible, the chances of the spark and the leak happening at the exact same spot are pretty low, right?

So there's other theories that try to, basically everyone agrees there was an electrostatic charge.

Somehow the electrostatic charge sparked.

Somehow that spark set off the hydrogen explosion.

Almost everyone agrees on that.

But within that, you still have a lot of room to maneuver around and figure out what exactly led to this disaster.

And what's amazing is that we still don't know today.

No, and now that I see Michael Mooney, he wrote a book called The Hindenburg, and that movie was based on The Hindenburg, and he basically used that theory.

So that's why they would have made it like a bombing.

Ben Dover is a character in that movie, but he goes by, I think, Joseph Spiel, I think.

Oh, for sure.

Yeah.

There's also a theory about incendiary paint, which is basically a scientist from NASA named Addison Bain, who his career is based on creating hydrogen fuel propulsion systems, right, using hydrogen as fuel.

Very much so.

He had an idea that, no, the hydrogen was, that was secondary.
