The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle, is an area in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean where a number of aircraft and surface vessels have disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Theories for disappearances in the Bermuda Triangle include magnetic anomalies affecting compasses, powerful hurricanes, methane gas eruptions, rogue waves, and supernatural explanations like sea monsters or aliens. Some of the most famous disappearances in the Bermuda Triangle include Flight 19, a training flight of bombers that vanished in 1945, and numerous other aircraft and ships that have vanished without a trace while passing through the area.

6. This is what happens in the Bermuda
Triangle
Lets see what exactly Bermuda
triangle is.

7. • The Bermuda Triangle is also known as the Devil's Triangle, it is region
in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean where a number
of aircraft and surface vessels disappeared mysteriously.
• The boundaries of the triangle cover the Straits of Florida, the Bahamas and
the entire Caribbean island area and the Atlantic east to the Azores.
• It has its points somewhere on the
Atlantic coast of Miami, San Juan,
Puerto Rico and the mid-Atlantic
island of Bermuda.

8. Compass Variations
• Compass problems are one of the cited phrases in many Triangle incidents.
Bermuda Triangle is one of those places where magnetic needle points to
the true north instead of earth’s geographical north direction. Due to this the
compass acts strangely here and aircraft pilots go in the wrong directions.

9. Gulf Stream
• The Gulf Stream is an ocean current
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 surface
velocity of up to about 2.5 metres
per second . A small plane making a
water landing or a boat having engine
trouble can be carried away from its reported position by the current.
Hurricanes
• Hurricanes are powerful storms, which form in tropical waters and
have historically cost thousands of lives lost and caused billions of
dollars in damage. The sinking of Francisco de Bobadilla's Spanish
fleet in 1502 was the first recorded instance of a destructive
hurricane. These storms have in the past caused a number of
incidents related to triangle.

10. Methane Hydrates
• An explanation for some of the disappearances has focused on the
presence of vast fields of methane hydrates (a form of natural gas) on
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. Periodic methane eruptions may
produce regions of frothy water that are no longer capable of providing
adequate buoyancy for ships. If this were the case, such an area forming
around a ship could cause it to sink very rapidly and without warning.

11. Rogue waves
• In various oceans around the world, rogue waves have caused ships
to sink and oil platforms to topple

12. Sea Monster
• Many people believe that a sea monster lives under the Bermuda
Triangle which eats the ships & airplanes that cross the Bermuda
triangle.

13. Aliens
• Many people think that Bermuda Triangle is the pickup stations of
the aliens from where they take aircrafts & ships of earth for
research.

14. Rays From Atlantis
• The legend says that the city of Atlantis heavily depended on some special
energy crystals which were extremely powerful.
• Those crystals radiated huge amounts of energy and caused the
navigational instruments of passing ships and airplanes to malfunction. As a
result they would have been lost or sometimes get completely destroyed by
the sheer power of the energy.

15. Time Portal
• Some people who came alive out of the triangle claim to have reached in
period before French Revolution. Some people believe that bermuda
triangle is a place from where human s can travel in time.

16. Flight 19
• Flight 19 was a training flight of TBM Avenger bombers
that went missing on December 5, 1945 while over the
Atlantic. Adding to the mystery, a search and rescue
Mariner aircraft with a 13-man crew was dispatched to
aid the missing squadron, but the Mariner itself was
never heard from again.
Ellen Austin
• The Ellen Austin came across a derelict ship, placed on board a prize crew,
and attempted to sail with it to New York in 1881. According to the stories,
the derelict disappeared sailing over the Bermuda Triangle.
USS Cyclops
• USS Cyclops, under the command of Lt CdrG.W. Worley, went missing
without a trace with a crew of 309 sometime after March 4, 1918, after
departing the island of Barbados.

17. Theodosia Burr Alston
• Theodosia Burr Alston was the daughter of former United States Vice
President Aaron Burr. She was a passenger on board the Patriot, which
sailed from Charleston, South Carolina to New York City on December
30, 1812, and was never heard from again.
Douglas DC-3
• On December 28, 1948, a Douglas DC-3 aircraft,
number NC16002, disappeared while on a flight
from San Juan, Puerto Rico, to Miami. No trace
of the aircraft or the 32 people onboard was ever
found.
Star Tiger and Star Ariel
• Star Tiger disappeared on January 30, 1948 on a flight from the
Azores to Bermuda; Star Ariel disappeared on January 17, 1949, on
a flight from Bermuda to Kingston, Jamaica.
