I've love to ride a blimp, but it's hard to forget the imagery of the Hindenburg. Just like Adolf isn't exactly a popular name for kids.

I'm reminded of the Archer episode "Skytanic" and the main character's failure to grasp that the blimp they're on isn't going to explode from every little spark:

---SNIP---

Sterling Archer: Jesus! You want to blow us all to shit, Sherlock?

[Archer slaps the face of a man attempting to light a cigarette]

Malory Archer: Sterling!

Capt. Lammers: For the last time, the Excelsior is filled with non-flamable helium!

---END SNIP---

While Archer is a silly comedy, in the end, that's the mentality we'd have to face to get something like this mainstream again.
