In our world of scientific discovery, one mystery endures. The Hoodoo Sea, the Limbo of The Lost, some seeing mysterious forces at work, others the powers of sea and storm. We dive into the deep. It appears to be a large military plane. And unleash science and logic to discover the truth behind, the Bermuda Triangle. This is the Bermuda Triangle, half a million square miles of Atlantic Ocean, where countless planes and boats seem to vanish into thin air.
It is a huge mystery and it will be here long after we're gone.
The Bermuda Triangle lies in the Atlantic Ocean, bounded by Florida, Bermuda and Puerto Rico. According to triangle believer Giang Quizar, 75 aircraft and hundreds of yachts have vanished here in the last 25 years, with no wreckage, no emergency transmissions, no evidence.
So there are not just disappearence. The very day it happens there is no trace ever found. That is the mystery of the triangle. Where did they all go? Why there are no wholes and wreckage on the bottom of the ocean? Why there is no debris on top? Where did everybody go?
Explanations range from weird to astonishing. The abduction of planes and ships by extraterrestrials, and disintegrating death rays from the lost continent of Atlantis, which some claim, sank here thousands of years ago.
There are some specific, real mysteries, little mysteries, vanishings. But those, when we look at them case by case, have rational explanations, and not any kind of death ray from the Atlanteans, not time warps sending ships into another dimension, but rather more mundane and explicable causes.
For believers, the most bizarre of the unexplained disappearances occurred shortly after the end of World War II. |
