LOL, nice...but that's why I prefer steam-powered ships to gas-filled ones.
Any airship worth its salt is filled with helium instead; and so not subject to such exploding nonsense.
And wouldn't 99.9% of airships keep the buoyant gas AWAY from hungry human lungs? No way anyone would hide in the actual balloon part. ^_^
Yeah... that too.
Fun Note!
Some designs of airships have a balloon filled with hydrogen (although most of the lifting comes from helium).
This is so that when fuel is burnt - thus causing the airship to become lighter - the hydrogen can be burnt off to reduce lift by a like amount.
(The alternative being the capture the exhaust from the engines).
