Great MYSTERIES AND MYTHS Of The Twentieth Century Narrated By Robert Powell For everyone who believes that fact is stranger than fiction there can be nothing in the world more fascinating than the search for the truth behind the most extraordinary mysteries and myths of the Twentieth Century. Tales of extraordinary courage, awesome misfortune or unbelievable luck, that have for countless years defied logic and explanation. With the help of rare and previously undiscovered archive film, it is possible to bring to light a fascinating new perspective on these compelling and unpredictable enigmas. During the 1930s, Hitler's massive Hindenburg airship was the pride of Nazi Germany. Able to carry sixty passengers across the Atlantic in great luxury, it represented a major technological feat of its age. However after an electric storm, the giant airship attempted to land at Lakehurst New Jersey, one and a half hours late and its mooring mast. Suddenly, the entire ship burst into flames with the loss of most of the passengers and crew. Recently discovered archive film from inside the airship shows the first indication of an explosion. Was it an accident? Or sabotage?
