Most investigators agree that the Hindenburg crash was simply an accident, perhaps caused by damage to a fin a few days earlier.


Also remember that helium gas has always been in short supply on this planet.  Helium is usually found as a by-product in some oil wells, but only a handful of countries produce helium.
