The Bermuda Triangle is
a legendary part of the Atlantic Ocean approximately falls in the coast of
Florida between Miami, Puerto Rico and the Bermudas. It covers about 500 000
square miles of the gigantic Atlantic Ocean. The Bermuda Triangle has been believed for a
long time to be the location where much numbers of airplanes and ships had
disappeared. Unexplained conditions of these misfortunes, including one cases
where there are pilots of a squadron of U.S. Navy bombers turn out to be
disoriented while flying over the area; the planes were never found. Other
boats and planes have seemingly disappeared from the region even though it is in
good weather without even radioing distress messages. Howard, an expert on Bermuda Triangle,
declares that more than 50 ships and 20 planes have gone down in the Bermuda
Triangle over the last century.
The anecdotes of unexplained
disappearances in the Bermuda Triangle began to reach public awareness around year
of 1950 and have been continually reported since then. Furthermore, because of many vanishing
incidents happened at Bermuda Triangle, it has become part of
popular culture to link the Bermuda Triangle to paranormal activity even though
most studies indicate terrible weather and human error are the more likely
culprits. Other than that, unverified paranormal clarifications for Bermuda
Triangle incidents have included references to UFO’s and even the curse from
the soul of “Black Slaves”. Other explanations have included magnetic anomalies,
pirates, deliberate sinking, hurricanes, gas deposits and huge waves.
The phrase
"Bermuda Triangle" was earliest used in an article written by Vincent
H. Gaddis for Argosy magazine
in 1964. In the article, Gaddis asserted that in this strange sea a number of
ships and planes had disappeared without explanation. Gaddis was not the first
one to come to this conclusion, either. As early as 1952, George X Sands, in a
report in Fate magazine, noted what seemed like an unusually large number of
strange accidents happened in that area. He mostly gives details about the Flight 19 incident where the U.S navy airplanes went missing in 1945.
He also stated about the ship Sandra that disappeared in 1950.
