The May 6 1937 destruction of the Hindenburg is a moment in history that refuses to be forgotten. While the tragic hydrogen-fueled crash was caught on film by local news teams on the ground what remains a mystery is how those passengers inside the massive airship might have experienced the disaster. In this eye-opening documentary meet Dr. John Provan who has spent most of his adult life researching airships and is considered to be among the world's foremost experts on the Hindenburg disaster. Using Dr. Provan's vast knowledge and careful insight as a guide the WHAT WENT DOWN production team travels from the crash site in Lakehurst New Jersey to birthplace of the Zeppelin in Friedrichshafen Germany to piece together the puzzle and tell the story like it's never been told before. Featuring CGI technology and dramatic re-enactments as well as compelling interviews and archival material HINDENBURG provides a fresh and unique perspective on one of the twentieth century's most iconic events.
