My father saw the Hindenburg blow up. No lie. He was born in 1918 and lived in Camden, NJ. He went to Lakehurst, NJ, with his buddies, and the rest is history.
Apparently there was a big fat German bloke who used to blow the Hindenburg up every morning before each flight. He'd put his lips over the valve & blow air into it until it swoll up really big. Apparently his breath was so bad from eating sausages and sauerkraut that he breathed almost 100% hydrogen.😆😆👍
This is the Low Idle Sound of the Hindenburgs x4, 1100HP DB-602 Diesel Engines. At full throttle she sounded like 4 massive Harley- Motorbikes at full power.
The airship on the picture is actually the Graf Zeppelin. I have heard that the Graf Zeppelin II was notably more silent than the Hindenburg, in spite of being her sister.
David Alvaro I have seen videos of the Graf Zeppelin II with sound and even a large cruise ship appears much more quiet, although this might be cause a ship's engine is enclosed. Is the audio of this video from the Hindenburg, as claimed on the title?
I have read an eyewitness account of the LZ 130 saying the engines were hardly heard. I would treat a lot of audio heard in newsreels with a grain of salt, since audio-recording equipment wasn't always on-scene and they sometimes dub it with a simulated sound (like some other motor). However, for real sound I recommend the video "Zeppelin Unterm Hakenkreuz", which shows the Hindenburg and Graf Zeppelin on their March 1936 propaganda flight.

Sorry to say but this is a fake. Look at what else the uploader has on his channel. This newsreel has a lot of static but has a few bits of real audio like when Captain Ernst Lehmann is on the phone with the Graf Zeppelin Captain Hans von Schiller ua-cam.com/video/OS8Nfl2-N9A/v-deo.html
I remember some fellow, I believe an American, wrote something similar regarding synchronizing the four engines many years ago in a piece describing the Hindenburg flying over his town. I am rather perplexed as to why people would want the engines to run in sync anyway ? It would not have any influence on the general performance of them.
@@Spacekriek i agree, probably wouldn't matter on this, maybe on a much smaller bomber, even then if they are running at the same power and spin in opposite directions to each other there shouldn't be a problem
@@themitochondriaisthepowerh7789 very clever. In case you didn't notice the giant swastika in its fin, the Hindenburg was built in 1936 Nazi Germany, it would not be facing ww1 fighters or aa systems if that's what you're thinking. the guy should've thought more about what a darn Formation of those zeppelins would be really capable of

@@Myself-yf5do first of all....setting up a question with "so..." is obvious you didn't read the question or set up a strawman. Secondly you did not read my post or your English is worse than mine. Thirdly I clearly said they had radios and were much more advanced than the spark gap on the titanic. Even German ww1 zeppelins did have radios. In the 1930s radio comms were much more advanced and you are welcome to do your own reading on it. It's common sense that 1930s technology is more advanced than early 1900s first- (and second-) generation two way radios titanic style. By the time LZ129 was flying the German armed forces already had the first VHF radars whole Britain and USA were still developing theirs. Conclusion.....yes they had radios.
I wonder how similar this sound is to the WW1 bombing zeppelins... before effective countermeasures were discovered, I can imagine this being a harrowing noise...in a world that mostly run by horse and buggy or steam locomotive.
I've always wondered how a ww1 zeppelin would sound. I found a clip here where a ww1 zeppelin is flying by - skip to 1:05 to hear the Zeppelin. ua-cam.com/video/3Wb3NgVi90I/v-deo.htmlsi=Pd6rgZ8hN0Gx3tAC Not sure if it's an actual sound recording of a ww1 zeppelins engine's but it could sound similar. I would guess most probably produced a low throbbing sound or a low-mid humming/droning sound.
yeah this is fake - look at the other videos on this person's channel, "Jesus Christ's halo sound", "Leonardo Da Vinci's helicopter sound", how can we believe him?
oscaris1ru12 Yes it is (the engine noise) however the Zepp in the pic is the LZ 127 Graf Zeppelin. The Hindenburg was much louder at regular full throttle and crusing speeds. This sound is her engines at idle.
il est stupide de comparer le bruit de moteurs anciens avec un hélicoptère. il est évident que la technologie actuelle et les hélices d'aujourd'hui changeraient totalement les choses !

He didn't throw a molotov cocktail at it to start the fire I hope?

Yes another Fantacist!!!! By the way my dad built the great wall of china!!!
It's amazing that our technology today can allow us to hear a ship that flew over 80 years ago

The separatist ships in star wars the clone wars make these sounds
I posted that to facebook. The only reason I'm at this video is because I was looking for a sound to reference incase I was wrong.

condensing equipment installed on exhausts
What was that?
David Alvaro I have seen videos of the Graf Zeppelin II with sound and even a large cruise ship appears much more quiet, although this might be cause a ship's engine is enclosed.
Is the audio of this video from the Hindenburg, as claimed on the title?
David Alvaro I assume that from a close distance the Hindenburg would have been far louder than four motorbikes.

It must have been maddening to have to listen to that nonstop for two or three days.

Imagine the mechanic riding next to the engine for an eight hour shift. Instant deafness.
Say whaaaaaat? Ich kann Sie nicht hören. Es ist zu laut hier!
Cool!! I have been looking for Zeppelin audios for some time, and this is a real find!! Thank you for posting this!!!

The video sound is pretty good, beyond my imagination
Music to my ears!
Omg....i never have thought that i wil hear those egines roar..my godness💝🌹🥇🏆😥
😂
Gripping sound track, can,t wait to play it again.
Saw Graf Zeppelin in the thumbnail first before reading “Hindenburg” in the title
The propellers on this ship were huge. Curious as to how they achieved some semblance of synchronization with the four of them...

The Goodyear blimp in the background
The airship depicted above was the Graf Zeppelin.
Imagine a formation of these things bombing your city at night.

Very cool, thanks for the upload. Great photo as well. Cheers.
It's Graf Zeppelin Not Hindenburg
Cool sounds. Would have been better to have a picture of the Hindenburg rather than the Graf Zeppelin but still interesting. Cheers
Some people ya just can't help...
It says Hindenburg on the side it’s just hard to see
@@LocalMapGuy No, it says Graf zeppelin, not hindenburg. This is obiously the Graf
@@LocalMapGuy Just look at the gondola dude. The difference between the Graf Zeppelin (1) and the Hindenburg is like day and night.
That sound also puts me to sleep

BRING BACK THE HINDERBURG WHAT A WAY TO TRAVEL IN 2024..
Exactly
Did the Hindenburg have wireless communication like the Titanic did?
No....much more advanced than the spark gap station on the Titanic
@@Dilley_G45 So the zeppelins couldn't communicate with each other?

Good ol' sound of four rumbling engines and propellers. How did burnt diesel smell back then lol?
Exactly as is does today, I'm certain. 😊
thats the lz130 graf zeppelin...
Hello Vincent : where did you found that recording ?
Idk but looks like V1 sound
maybe it's a German trait when it comes to building scary glyphs
It's hardly the engine-sound that we hear but above all the sound the props make.
Wow!😌
George Lucas purposely made the Providence class Dreadnought sound like this
Where are you fredricksen

That is the same size of the bf1 airship
Sounds creepy.
Who sees the small Blimp/ Airship by the Graf Zeppelin
uh, hope its ok but, this is not Hindenburg
