The Bermuda Triangle | The devil's Triangle

The Bermuda Triangle

The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle is a loosely defined region in the western shore of the North Atlantic Ocean where several blimps, ships, planes, and people are said to have mysteriously disappeared. Most reputable sources dismiss the idea that there is any obscurity. The region of the Bermuda Triangle is along moreover the most heavily traveled shipping lanes in the world, after ships frequently crossing through it for ports in the Americas, Europe, and the Caribbean islands. Sail ships and pleasure craft regularly sail through the region, and commercial and private aircraft routinely soar passing it. 

Popular culture has endorsed various disappearances to the paranormal or fight by extraterrestrial creatures. Documented evidence shows that a significant percentage of the incidents were false, inaccurately reported, or decorated by sophisticated authors. Persons accepting the Bermuda Triangle as a real phenomenon has offered several explanatory approaches. Triangle writers have applied many spiritual concepts to explain the events. One explanation pins the blame on leftover technology from the mythical lost continent of Atlantis. Sometimes connected to the Atlantis story is the immersed rock formation identified as the Bimini Road off, the island of Bimini in the Bahamas, which is in the Triangle by some explanations. Followers of the purported mystic Edgar Cayce take his forecast that evidence of Atlantis would be discovered in 1968, referring to the discovery of the Bimini Road. Believers describe the formation as a road, wall, or other structure, but the Bimini Road is of natural origin. Other writers connect the events to UFOs. Charles Berlitz, an author of various books on anomalous phenomena lists several theories attributing the losses in the Triangle to anomalous or unexplained forces.

Compass Variations

Compass problems are one of the cited phrases in many Triangle incidents. While some have theorized that unusual local magnetic anomalies may exist in the area, such anomalies have not been found. Compasses have natural magnetic variations with the magnetic poles, a truth which navigators have known for centuries. Magnetic (compass) north and geographic (true) north are exactly the same only for a small number of places – for example, as of 2000, in the United States, only those places on a line running from Wisconsin to the Gulf of Mexico. But the public may not be as informed and think there is something mysterious about a compass "changing" across an area as large as the Triangle, which it naturally will.

Gulf Stream

The Gulf Stream is a major surface current, essentially driven by thermohaline circulation that originates in the Gulf of Mexico and then flows through the Straits of Florida into the North Atlantic. In essence, it is a river within an ocean, and, like a river, it can and does carry floating objects. It has a maximum surface velocity of about 2 m/s (6.6 ft/s).[29] A small plane making a water landing or a boat having engine trouble can be carried away from its reported location by the current.

Human Error

One of the most cited explanations in credited inquiries as to the loss of any blimp or vessel is human error.

* Human stubbornness may have caused businessman Harvey Conover to lose his sailing yacht, Revonoc, as he sailed into the teeth of a storm south of Florida concerning January 1, 1958.

* Hurricanes are powerful storms that form in tropical waters and have historically cost thousands of lives and caused billions of dollars in jarring. The sinking of Francisco de Bobadilla's Spanish fleet in 1502 was the first recorded instance of a destructive hurricane. These storms in the postscript have caused many incidents associated with the Triangle. A powerful downdraft of cool vibes was suspected to be a cause in the sinking of Pride of Baltimore in the region of May 14, 1986. The crew of the sunken vessel noted the wind suddenly shifted and increased velocity from 32 km/h (20 mph) to 97145 km/h (6090 mph). A National Hurricane Center satellite specialist, James Lushine, avowed "during the complete unstable weather conditions the downburst of cool look from aloft can hit the surface behind a bomb, exploding outward in the middle of a giant squall pedigree of wind and water."

* The same matter occurred to Concordia in 2010, off the coast of Brazil. Scientists are currently investigating whether "hexagonal" clouds may be the source of this going on-to-170 mph (270 km/h) "tune grenades".

* A parable for some of the disappearances has focused upon the presence of large fields of methane hydrates (a form of natural gas) upon the continental shelves.

* Laboratory experiments carried out in Australia have proven that bubbles can, indeed, sink a scale model ship by decreasing the density of the water; any wreckage, therefore, rising to the surface would be rapidly dispersed by the Gulf Stream. It has been hypothesized that periodic methane explosions (sometimes called "mud volcanoes") may manufacture regions of frothy water that are no longer intelligent in providing pure ample freshness for ships. If this were the exploit, such a place forming vis--vis a ship could cause it to sink totally brusquely and without caution. Publications by the USGS describe large stores of underwater hydrates worldwide, including the Blake Ridge place, off the coast of the southeastern United States. However, according to the USGS, no large releases of gas hydrates are assumed to have occurred in the Bermuda Triangle for the after 15,000 years
