The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle, is a region in
the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean where a number of aircraft
and surface vessels are said to have disappeared under mysterious
circumstances.
Popular culture has attributed these disappearances to the paranormal or activity by extraterrestrial beings.
Documented evidence indicates that a significant percentage of the incidents were spurious, inaccurately reported or embellished by later authors, and numerous official agencies have stated that the number and nature of disappearances in the region is similar to that in any other area of ocean.
Supernatural explanations
Triangle writers have used a number of supernatural 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 submerged rock formation known as the Bimini Road off the island of Bimini in the Bahamas, which is in the Triangle by some definitions.Followers of the purported psychic Edgar Cayce take his prediction that evidence of Atlantis would be found in 1968 as referring to the discovery of the Bimini Road. Believers describe the formation as a road,wall,or other structure, though geologists consider it to be of natural origin.
Other writers attribute the events to UFOs.This idea was used by Steven Spielberg for his science fiction film Close Encounters of the Third Kind, which features the lost Flight 19 aircrews as alien abductees.
Natural explanations includes Compass variations,Gulf Stream,Human error,Violent weather,Methane hydrates and Rogue waves.
