As in a zeppelin, one of those flying blimp like contraptions made of (or filled with, or both) lead, the heavy metal (which coincidentally is another music term). As you can imagine, a zeppelin made of lead would not go over (as in the sky, above people) well, but would rather crash violently to the ground.<br/><br/>Just to clarify, I am not regularly watching WWTBAM. I saw 1/2 an episode. Although I have also seen two separate halves of Deal or No Deal? and while I do not understand how a show with that premise got made and more importantly how Howie Mandel came to be the host (Little Monsters, anyone?) and how he groomed that soul patch, that show is pretty crazy/addicting despite the fact that it is utterly stupid and takes no skill to be a successful contestant.
