Bermuda Triangle, also referred to as the Devil’s Triangle located on the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean. Over the years many ships, aircraft, and humans are disappeared under mysterious situations. The surrounding of the Bermuda Triangle is a very heavily trafficked sea lane. Cruise ships routinely cross through the triangle bringing thousands of tourists to the Bahamas and other tropical islands, and giant cargo ships cross through the waters en route to ports in the Gulf of Mexico. A ship wishing to dock at the southern US’s largest ports- such as Mobile, Alabama, must cross through the triangle on its way to America from Europe, Africa, or even Asia. Many people have attributed various disappearances to the paranormal or activity by extraterrestrial beings, some research shows that few accidents are real but most of them are inaccurate.
Notable incidents in the Bermuda Triangle
The date is December 5th, 1945, and five American Avenger fighter-bombers take off from an airstrip in the Naval Air Station of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The weather is crystal clear, and blue skies greet the pilots as they rise to cruise height. The five aviators have experienced combat veterans, and have hundreds of hours of combat flight hours under their belt each.
The planes plot a course east, flying for fifty-six miles to execute a few practice bombing runs at the Hens and Chicken Shoals a naval proving ground. Then the planes will fly east for sixty-seven more miles to approach the Bahamas, before flying north for seventy-three miles and then turning back for Florida. The planes plot a triangular flight path across the Bermudas which will end with them come back home.
As the flight heads out to sea through, the lead pilot’s compass starts spinning out of control. Commander Charles Taylor carefully checks and rechecks his equipment, but he can’t find a reason for the compass malfunction. The other pilot’s radio over that they too are experiencing strange equipment malfunctions. Taylor radios back to Fort Lauderdale and informs the tower thereof their equipment malfunction.
Even more troubling, he reports his location as being over the Florida keys, which should be impossible as he and his wingmen have flown due east for the last hour. The tower radios back, informing Taylor to immediately turn north and head for Miami- but only if he is sure he really is over the Florida keys. Lacking modern radar and IFF transmitters, the tower is as in the dark to Taylor’s position as he is.
Suddenly, Commander Charles Taylor spots a mysterious silver, saucer-shaped craft directly in front of him. The craft appears to have accelerated towards Taylor’s plane in the blink of an eye. Looking inside a mini porthole cut into the craft, Taylor spots the face of a Zeti Reticulian alien waving back at him, licking its lips in anticipation at the delicious human brain feast it’s about to gorge itself on.
The Bermuda Triangle has mystified humanity ever since the disappearance of the now legendary Flight 19, but for as long as the myths surrounding the alleged mysteries of the triangle have persisted, so too have the debunkers who have worked far harder than any human should have to, to try and convince people that Atlantean fire crystals, sea monsters, alien space ships, and time vortexes don’t really exist.
At the same time, miles beneath the Atlantic ocean, a fire crystal that once powered the now sunken city of Atlantis hums with energy. The Atlantean relic, damaged in the great catastrophe that sunk the legendary city beneath the waves eons ago, is still functional, but severely damaged.
The fire crystal releases a burst of energy that bores through miles of water and into the sky, incinerating Taylor and his aircraft. Except for the Atlantean fire, crystal is too late, because of Taylor and the other plane with him are suddenly overtaken by a shining, whirling vortex of triforce energy, which teleports the pilots and their aircraft to the year 3,451 AD.
List Of Bermuda Triangle Incidents
- In 1945: December 5, Flight 19 (five Grumman TBF Avengers) lost with 14 airmen, and later the same day The Martin PBM Mariner BuNo 59225 lost with 13 airmen while searching for Flight 19.
- In 1948: January 30, Avro Tudor G-AHNP Star Tiger lost with 6 crew members and 27 passengers, en route from Santa Maria Airport in the Azores to Kindley Field, Bermuda.
- In 1800: USS Pickering, on a course from Guadeloupe to Delaware, lost with 90 people on board. The reason may be lost in a gale.
- In 1824: USS Wild Cat, on a course from Cuba to Tompkins Island, lost in a gale with 21 people on board.
- In 1948: December 28, Douglas DC-3 NC16002 lost with three crew and 36 passengers, en route from San Juan, Puerto Rico, to Miami, Florida.
- In 1962: January 8, A USAF Boeing B-50 Superfortress 51-0465 was lost over the Atlantic between the US East Coast and the Azores
- In 1918: March 4, USS Cyclops, collier, left Barbados in the evening, lost with all 306 crew and passengers en route to Baltimore, Maryland.
- In 2007: April 10, A Piper PA-46-310P Malibu disappeared near Berry Island after flying into a level 6 thunderstorm and losing altitude. Two fatalities were listed.
- In 2017: May 15, A private Mitsubishi MU-2B aircraft was at 24,000 feet when it vanished from radar and radio contact with air traffic controllers in Miami. The plane wreckage was found later.
- In 2015: October 1, SS El Faro, with a crew member of 33 aboard, sank off of the coast of the Bahamas within the triangle. Search crews identified the vessel 15,000 feet down the surface.
And many more accidents happen in Bermuda Triangle or nearby Triangle, so many ships, aircraft, and people disappeared from that place.
Mystery Behind Flight 19 Disappearing Solved
In our opening scenario, we told the story as most conspiracy theorists tell it- and yet there are very many clear errors even before we get to the fire crystals, aliens and time vortexes. The weather, for example, was not really crystal clear, and there was a moderate cloud cover the sky that impeded the pilot’s sight at times. The waves below were cresting at about fifteen meters- barely calm skies for a pleasant afternoon flight.
The pilots themselves were not combating veterans with hundreds of flight hours between them, but rather four of them were extremely inexperienced and on what would have been one of their first training flights. Commander Taylor himself was also quite a controversial figure. He was known to be a heavy drinker, and in fact, had shown up that day quite hungover. Also, he had a prior history of getting lost and having to ditch his plane, having done so twice already.
Clearly not the best navigator in the world, which maybe helps explain why he drifted so far off course. The fact that the airmen were not flying brand new Avengers, but rather well-used aircraft, probably also explains why Taylor’s compass malfunctioned which only exacerbated the problems with Taylor’s poor navigation skills. And there was of course only one recorded malfunctioning compass, not four, which further decreases the mystery of the disappearance.
Commander Taylor’s pilots had actually repeatedly postulated that they had accidentally flown away southeast, not southwest as Taylor believed. Several pilots even repeatedly suggested that they turn west, though Taylor insisted that they fly east instead, taking them ahead out to sea. One of the pilots is even thought to have broken formation and headed west, albeit too late to save yourselves as his plane ran out of fuel.
From established facts alone we will already see what percentage elements of Flight 19’s disappearance are misunderstood or misrepresented by conspiracy theorists. With a factual account of the disappearance, it doesn’t seem like much of a mystery at all. Taylor was irresponsible, took off with a malfunctioning compass, and then led his flight deeper out to sea instead of turning west as he should have done. Heavy cloud cover likely obscured views of any recognizable landmasses and added to the difficulty in navigating.
Mystery solved- Taylor got his men killed due to an error of judgment, and certainly didn’t need the help of extinct Atlanteans or space aliens to do so.
Bermuda Triangle is really Dangerous
Since the mid-1970s Lloyds of London has been attempting to convince the unwashed masses that there is nothing weird about the Bermuda triangle. Lloyds of London is a maritime insurer who has insured ships heading out to sea since the seventeenth century. Every time one among their insured ships goes down in an accident or bad weather, they lose a crucial amount of money- thus Lloyds of London keeps the world’s most detailed records of all oceanic accidents all around the globe.
The area known as the Bermuda Triangle is a very heavily trafficked shipping lanes in the world. Cruise ships routinely cross through the triangle bringing thousands of tourists to the Bahamas and other tropical islands, and giant cargo ships cross through the waters en route to ports in the Gulf of Mexico. A ship wishing to dock at the southern US’s largest ports- such as Mobile, Alabama, must cross through the triangle on its way to America from Europe, Africa, or even Asia.
All of this heavy ship and air traffic is bound to result in a large number of shipping accidents and lost ships. No matter how advanced our modern technology is, some estimates say that we still lose two dozen large ships every year, completely vanishing along with their crews. The ocean is still a wild and very dangerous place for mankind to tread, and occasionally it likes to remind us of that fact.
When you concentrate large amounts of shipping traffic through a narrow corridor such as the Bermuda Triangle, it’s expected that from time to time there will be a headlines grabbing disappearance. Yet after scouring its records, Lloyds of London was able to prove to the public that this part of the world suffers shipping accidents and losses at nearly the same rate as anywhere else on the planet.
In fact, they have been trying to inform the world at large about this since 1974- and in completely predictable fashion, but most of the people continue to call it fake news. The deep state- during this case, a literal deep state beneath the waves referred to as Atlantis- is clearly responsible.
Bermuda Triangle Mystery Solved
The Bermuda Triangle has mystified humanity ever since the disappearance of the now legendary Flight 19, but for as long as the myths surrounding the alleged mysteries of the triangle have persisted, so too have the debunkers who have worked far harder than any human should have to, to try and convince people that Atlantean fire crystals, sea monsters, alien space ships, and time vortexes don’t really exist.
Now a scientist has finally pulled the curtain back on the truth behind the Bermuda triangle- and his discoveries, all backed up with scientific evidence, have shocked many. Well, in truth they haven’t shocked many people at all- and that’s because of scientist Karl Kruszelnicki has at last revealed with empirical evidence that the only mystery surrounding the Bermuda Triangle is that there never was a mystery, to begin with.
Much like conspiracy theories surrounding John F. Kennedy’s assassination, the mental programming of male models to become elite assassins for the fashion industry, and the moon landing, it turns out that good old fashioned human ignorance, a whole lot of misinformation, and an appetite for mystery is mostly to blame for the Bermuda Triangle alleged weirdness. Take the legendary disappearance of Flight 19 for example.
There is another theory that was at least scientific in nature, was proposed for the loss of ships and planes across the Triangle. This theory states that massive releases of methane gas, frozen beneath the first few layers of soil at the bottom of the ocean, could be responsible for sinking ships and dropping planes out of the sky.
Such a large release of methane could, in fact, create a swarm of bubbles directly underneath a ship which would destroy its buoyancy, and cause the ship to immediately sink. Imagine one huge bubble of methane slowly rising into the surface, with a ship at the very center of it when it breaks to the surface and bursts. With no ocean underneath it, the ship plummets into the empty air cavity it and therefor the ocean crashes down above it, immediately sinking the ship.
In a very similar way, this is often what the theorists propose happens to ships in the Bermuda Triangle. The methane, however, can rise for tens of thousands of feet, and when it comes into contact with the superheated jet exhaust, it can explode. The resulting explosion could damage jet engines and cause planes to fall out of the sky. The theory is actually completely plausible, and very realistic- except scientists say that the last massive release of undersea methane in the area occurred about fifteen thousand years ago.
It turns out that the only real mystery surrounding the Bermuda Triangle is why there’s a mystery left to begin with. The facts and the data have been publicly available since the mid-1970s, and prominent scientists have debunked the entire mystery routinely over the last several decades. In the end, it seems people simply like having a good mystery, and living in a world with no mysterious circumstances, alien space ships, and Atlantean fire crystals may be too boring for some.
