And still are. Watch the film of it burning and you'll see that those on
the other side of the derigible, didn't see the fire until it was almost
on the ground. Their view was blocked by the side that hadn't started to
burn yet.

 DC>>> Add to that the fact that hydrogen burns without a visible flame.
