Honestly, having read The Never War (and actually only looking this up because of that book), I am compelled to think there is no truth in it at all. Sure, Max Rose and Winn Farrow might have existed, but I don’t believe that Winn Farrow set off any rocket. It’s just too far fetched. Just a theory to me (and one that has to include crazy time travel and that sort of thing). In the book, Winn Farrow sets off the rocket, but though that may have happened, it’s more likely there was lightning or another natural cause.

of course it’s fiction but you should read it before you knock it or try and insult it cause you just sound stupid. Farrow didn’t hit the hindenburg with a bomb. He hit it with a fireworks rocket. The bomb pendragon fans are referring to is the atom bomb. and of course it’s real and the germans were trying to discover how it worked. duh, there’s plently of evidence the bomb existed.
Mythbusters proved that it wasn’t thermite that caused the explosion. It was a really good episode. They built three scale models of the hindenburg and tested the three most popular theories of how it exploded. They found out which it was and all it needed was a little spark. If the static electricity was powerful enough that could have been the cause.”[/quote]

Yeah, BeachLvr947 it is fiction, but the rocket/flare thing Mr Studoworthy and I saw could have been Winn Farrow’s flare or rocket. Maybe it wasn’t exactly like in Pendragon, but it might be around the same idea.

I aggree with you Mr Studworthy. I saw that too when watching it on the internet. I also read the Pendragon book The Never War by D.J. MacHale and his theory is very realistic considering the rocket looking flare thing. It could have been the misile that Winn Farrow set off from his book. How could people not question that rocket? It was so obvios. Or maybe it was like you said Mr Studworthy, a flare signaling Winn Farrow when to launch the rocket. But then again, who knows? Humanity probobly never will.

When i was a kid, i saw newsreel of the incident, where you could see what looked like a flare shoot up and ignite the craft. Nowadays they don’t show that part, but just before and then skips to just after. I have always thought that this is what started the blaze and could never understand why anyone would think it was something else. Seems that a little rewriting of history has gone on for the masses. Oh the humanity indeed

Do you really have any proof that the “bomb”actually existed? Seriously, Pendragon is still Fiction.

The hindenburgs truth, the hindenburg was blown up by a very notorious man his name was winn farrow, he was partners with Maximillion Rose a gangster of the time, during a time prohibition took place(the ban of alcohol) Mr.Rose and Mr.Farrow were partners at the time selling alcohol and other shady businesses but Mr.Rose walked out of the business and left with his money.That event left Mr. Farrow in the gutters.He wanted revenge and he wanted it bad. so when the hindenburg was being sent in it was loaded with million dollar paintings,diamonds, and 40million dollars in american cash all to pay Mr.Rose for helping the Nazis with thier “project” by sending in scrap metal and other items, well Mr.Farrow saw the oppertunity to take dwn Mr.Rose just like Mr.Rose had taken down Mr.Farrow he was going to blow up the ship with a firework to be exact a miniature rocket. well at 6:45 Mr.Rose was on his way to lakehurst airfield to collect his money, but was hit by a cop motorcyclyist thus killing Mr.Rose which left Farrow wide open for his assult but the thing is Mr.Rose had never died he was thrown from his car and knocked unconcious while one of his goons was able to get up and take the cops bike but when he got to the airfield he was shot and killed by farrow himself but a certain person whom i may not mention charged after farrow but farrow had already ignited the rocket and the fuse was getting close and another person was on scene but was stopped by a person.what would have happened if farrow failed well lets just say bye bye america the germans “project” was a nuclear bomb actually several of them if Mr.Rose were to make it to the airfield and collect his money london new york and d.c would have been wiped out leaving radiation hanging in the air for months killing millions, so if you say that 36 deaths was bad think of millions”

I started reading the pendragon books its a good series to start
it has facts but is a fiction series
