Probably one of the most intriguing of the mysteries which has prevailed for many centuries, the “Bermuda Triangle” has been accused of the disappearance of many ships and planes that has taken place in and around the western part of the Atlantic Ocean. In spite of the larger than usual disappearance rate occurring at the Bermuda Triangle, it is not officially considered as a geographic zone and not found officially on any map. It encompasses an area of 500,000 square miles of open sea forming a triangle with apexes at Miami, Puerto Rico and Bermuda. It had been named after Bermuda since it is mythically known as the “Isle of the Devils”. The Bermuda Triangle has been called several names, like the “Devil’s Triangle”, “The Graveyard of the Atlantic”, “The Sea of Doom” and many more. Perfectly functioning ships and planes in fair weather have disappeared in the Bermuda Triangle without any trace or warning to nearby radio control towers. The wreckages and bodies of the crew have never been found. Even if wreckages were found, they could never be linked to any disappeared ship or plane since it was damaged beyond recognition. This diabolical region has claimed more than 700 boats and 120 planes in a phase of 35 years. So, the curiosity to know the reason behind these occurrences has brought humans to study the areas geography and history and establish a solid theory supported with the help of science and within reasonable logic. Scientific explanations include the formation of “electronic fogs”, formation of “rogue waves”, and Deep trenches caused during the ice age (Many unorthodox and “extra-terrestrial” linkages have been recited by many people, this is also arguable since there is proof and witness accounts linking UFOs (Unidentified Flying Objects) and more famously “USOs” (Unidentified Submerged Objects), to the “Bermuda Triangle”. Some popular folk tales include stories of sea monsters and pirates too! - See more at: readanddigest/mysteries-of-the-bermuda-triangle/#sthash.56zIBIDo.dpuf
