Fortunately there were only minor injuries, perhaps this will be the pin that finally pops the giant airship insanity balloon.

It would have to be able to stay up in the air for that. It seems that they can’t leave these things out of the hanger for more than 48 hours without them blowing away.

Sounds risky, I wonder what company would be willing to insure such a venture. I can hear the phone call now.
Amazon: We want to insure our inventory?
Potential Insurer: OK, what is the address of your warehouse?
Amazon: It’s going to be floating way up in the sky.
Potential Insurer: How close is the nearest fire department?
Amazon: It will vary with the prevailing winds.
Potential Insurer: You’re joking right.
Amazon: Nope.
Potential Insurer: Click... Ringtone.

Don't think I'd try to re-inflate with my bicycle pump, that would do wonders for the arms and back but seriously, how long do you want to be doing that?
