What is Bermuda Triangle Stories?

Around the 1960s is when nuclear power started to become more and more advantageous to use as a power source. One of the many benefits of using nuclear power was the potential for transportation.

Those wind storms on the ocean were said to create waves as high as 14m, ravaging ships and planes caught in it

The military started to fully fund nuclear-powered vehicles and one of the first contenders for that was a submarine named the 'Scorpion' that took to the seas in 1968. However, it didn't make it very far as it was sunk by the Bermuda Triangle. The submarine was not only filled with a little under a hundred people but it was also filled with secret documents all of which are now presumed missing.

Australian scientist Dr Karl Kruszelnicki has also blamed large waves for the apparent disappearance of Flight 19, which he believed crashed in the Bermuda Triangle due to human error.

While the article has talked about things that have occurred in the past it is important to note that strange things occurring within the Bermuda Triangle's walls haven't stopped. Just last year two flights experienced strange occurrences when flying over the Bermuda Triangle.

Last year, a plane carrying four people, including a mother and her two children, went missing in the infamous triangle.

One flight Turkish Airlines flight TK183 experienced strange technical problems which spooked the captain into turning around and making an emergency landing. Later on, in 2017 a private plane contacted air traffic control saying it lost control of its plane and it was lost at sea right above the Bermuda Triangle.

Mother’s Day in Puerto Rico and were flying to Florida when their twin-prop MU-2B aeroplane vanished off the radar about 59km east off the island of Eleuthera in the Bahamas.

Everyone knows there is something strange going on inside the walls of the Bermuda Triangle and just like its size nobody really knows where its borders are. That is because they don't stay in one exact spot for very long.

The search was eventually called off and no bodies were found.

Bermuda Triangle's walls can be larger or smaller than that of what you see on a map. Even though the Bermuda Triangle has three definite points it doesn't mean that the triangle doesn't move. It can be thought of more as a triangle floating back and forth over the three points that connect the triangle.

Communication was lost at 24,000 feet (7.3km) and a speed of about 555km/h, officials said.

there are some strange things that happen within the Bermuda Triangle that don't have anything to do with planes or boats going missing. One of these things is the fact that the Bermuda Triangle has a high rate of producing cyclones.

The Bermuda Triangle is located right where many of the hurricanes come from during hurricane season so it is no surprise that many hurricanes and cyclones pass through the Bermuda Triangle. If anything the Bermuda Triangle builds upon these cyclones that have already been produced and pushes them towards the coasts.

While there are many theories about the paranormal being behind the strange effects the Bermuda Triangle has there have also been theories that have been based in science. Scientists say that large amounts of methane are let loose from the ocean floor leaving large holes behind in the ocean

large holes in the sea floor act as a sort of vacuum and may be one of the reasons that so many ships disappear. Vladimir Romanovsky of the University of Alaska Fairbanks is quoted as saying “sinkholes in the ocean produced as a result of decomposing gas hydrates” may be the cause of the ships disappearing in the Bermuda Triangle.

The lost city of Atlantis is another conspiracy and mystery all in its own. The lost city of Atlantis and the Bermuda Triangle share many conspiracies and many people think that one was caused by the other. Conspiracy theorists suggest that the Bermuda Triangle is the reason Atlantis has gone missing and the facts lie off the coast of the Bahamas’ Bimini Island.

Christopher Columbus traveled straight through the Bermuda Triangle on his voyage to the New World. Along this journey, he would take notes down in his journal and one would stand out as very strange to many

Columbus wrote "a great flame of fire" and reported seeing a strange light in the sky. Scientists have basically debunked this theory as Columbus seeing a meteor fall from space and land in the ocean but this hasn't stopped conspiracy theorists to claim that it was aliens. One solid piece of evidence was the fact that Christopher Columbus also noted that his compass was acting strangely.

If you have seen anything about the Bermuda Triangle in movies or TV you may notice that the triangle is always surrounded in fog. Many people believe this fog to have strange powers within the triangle. This was backed up when a pilot was flying over the Bermuda Triangle in 1970 when he came across a strange shape in the fog that was a circle. He decided to fly through the circle and when he did everything in his plane began to go haywire. He was even reported as saying "lines on the walls that spun counter-clockwise"

Located inside the Bermuda Triangle near Bahamas’ Andros Island is the US Atlantic Undersea Test and Evaluation Centre, a.k.a. AUTEC. This is where the United States navy tests all of their new equipment. Everything from sonar to weapons is tested here. Most of the equipment is fully submerged and allows them to test the best underwater combat situations. If the United States government and military are located here then it is no surprise that they haven't released any information on if anything strange has happened at AUTEC. However, it is safe to say if anything did happen there it sounds like they are prepared.

As mentioned before even though a large number of plane crashes and boat accidents were reported many decades ago, it doesn't mean that the Bermuda Triangle isn't responsible for plane crashes even to this year. It is averaged that 4 aircrafts and 20 ships/yachts go down in the Bermuda Triangle every year. However, none of the planes and boats that go missing every year stay missing. They are usually found and accounted for. Many claims that the cause of all of these crashes is simply due to the amount of traffic the area sees and the bad weather that plagues the area.
