I had my friend listen to it. She has perfect hearing. The guy day, in the last ten seconds: 'Massive fuc**ng wreckage!' That is why they took him off the air, he swore...if this really did ever happen.

I can hear high pitched noises well, at at 36 ort 37 seconds, you will hear a wrench or some other tool hit a cement surface in the background. How do you explain that???

I am not going to research this on the internet, but it does seem like it was made in a studio, or like I said, someone's basement/garage.

Pam.

Pam, even without looking at the footage (because I don't trust the website, youtu.be?), the words "Oh, the humanity," means ... your video is of the Hindenburg disaster. That single event is why you didn't grow up with airships. Lakehurst, New Jersey, May 6, 1937. The reporter is Herbert Morrison. That is one of the most iconic pieces of American News Reporting. (I had always heard that Morrison lost his job for "editorializing" and showing emotion during that report, don't know if that's true).

The film clip is real, and the lines are part of the mooring system for the ship. The sounds of pieces of metal hitting the ground are pieces of metal hitting the ground. The Hindenburg was a fabric shell stretched over a metal frame.

And it is "mass of smoking wreckage."

America didn't have the word "fucking" in 1937. Especially not in radio.
