Answer 1

The best explanation for the Hindenburg tragedy is:

A - Hydrogen leaked out of the blimp and reacted with air.

The Hindenburg was filled with hydrogen, a highly flammable gas, and it is believed that a leak allowed hydrogen to mix with air, resulting in a fire that led to the disaster. The ignition source is often attributed to static electricity or other sparks, which caused the hydrogen to combust rapidly.
