The mystery of the Bermuda triangle or also called the Devil's triangle is definitely one of the most intriguing mysteries of all, scientists attributed all the dissapperances that occurred in the region to what they belive as the strange magnetic fields and oceanic flatulence (methane gas from the bottom of the ocean) in that region. While others simply believe that it is because of the predominant occurrence of thunderstorms in that region.

The Bermuda Triangle, also known as Devil's Triangle, is an area of ocean roughly defined by Bermuda, Puerto Rico, and the southern tip of Florida. It is claimed that within this zone many ships and planes have disappeared under highly unusual circumstances. The United States Coast Guard and others disagree with the assessment of paranormal activity, arguing that the number of incidents involving lost ships and planes is no larger than that of any other heavily traveled region of the world.\n\nThe first mention of any disappearances in the area was made in 1950 by E.V.W. Jones as a sidebar on the Associated Press wire service regarding recent ship losses in the area. Jones' article notes the "mysterious disappearances" of ships, planes and small boats in the region, and ascribes it the name "The Devil's Sea." The area achieved its fame mainly because of the 1974 book, “The Bermuda Triangle” by Charles Berlitz. The book consists of a series of “mysterious” disappearances of ships and aircraft, including the December 1945 loss of five U.S. Navy Avenger torpedo bombers, known as Flight 19.\n\nThe Bermuda Triangle has been attached to many bizarre theories to explain the nature of the disappearances. The list includes transportation by extraterrestrial technology, a "temporal hole" of some form, the lost city of Atlantis, and other supernatural causes.\n\nSolid research done by Lawrence Kusche, and published in 1975 as “The Bermuda Triangle Mystery: Solved.” show this area of water to not be such an unusual place. It showed that the proportion of boats and planes to go missing to be no greater than any other area of water. Of course the debate still goes on about the area and the statistics are spun in whatever direction a new report or book wants them to lean.\n\nIf there is mysterious goings on in the area the most likely explanation is the abundance of methane hydrates in the area. A methane hydrate is a form of water ice that contains a large amount of methane within its crystalline structure and is solid up to 64 degrees Fahrenheit. Ruptures of the hydrate can release vast amounts of methane gas. This gas could cause the density of the ocean to reduce enough to sink a ship in the effected area. The gas could also affect aircraft by lowering lift, giving false altimeter readings, and even stall and aircraft’s engine. These effects of methane gas have all been experimentally proven.

Back in the 60's? We used to see those blimp things a lot then (airships they call them now) the army and air-force used them a lot for paratroop training and weather observation. They were very quiet unless you were directly under one. When they turned away from you they just disappeared because of the optical effect of the skin they were made from, plus they were mostly grey so they blended into the clouds very easily. We lived near a base where they flew three of them from and they often seemed to disappear (sometimes as you were watching them!). This would be my guess!

The Bermuda Triangle (also known as Devil's Triangle) is a nearly half-million square-mile (1.2 million km2) area of ocean roughly defined by Bermuda, Puerto Rico, and the southernmost tip of Florida. The Bermuda Triangle has become popular through representation by the mass media, in which it is a paranormal site in which the known laws of physics are either violated, altered, or both.\n\nWhile there is a common belief that a number of ships and airplanes have disappeared under highly unusual circumstances in this region, the United States Coast Guard and others disagree with that assessment, citing statistics demonstrating that the number of incidents involving lost ships and aircraft is no larger than that of any other heavily traveled region of the world. Many of the alleged mysteries have proven not so mysterious or unusual upon close examination, with inaccuracies and misinformation about the cases often circulating and recirculating over the decades.\n\n\nSkeptical responses\n\nThe marine insurer Lloyd's of London has determined the "triangle" to be no more dangerous than any other area of ocean, and does not charge unusual rates for passage through the region. Coast Guard records confirm their conclusion.\n\nSkeptics comment that the disappearance of a train between two stops would be more convincing evidence of paranormal activity, and the fact that such things do not occur suggests that paranormal explanations are not needed for the disappearance of ships and airplanes in the far less predictable open ocean.\n[edit]\n\nKusche's research\n\nIntrigued by the number of students coming to him looking for information about the Bermuda Triangle, Lawrence Kusche, a reference librarian with Arizona State University at the time of the Flight 19 incident, began an exhaustive follow-up investigation of the original reports. His findings were eventually published in 1975 as The Bermuda Triangle Mystery: Solved.\n\nKusche's research revealed a number of inaccuracies and inconsistencies between Berlitz's accounts and statements from eyewitnesses, participants and others involved in the initial incidents. He noted cases where pertinent information went unreported, such as the disappearance of round-the-world yachtsman Donald Crowhurst which Berlitz had presented as a mystery, despite clear evidence that Crowhurst had fabricated the accounts of his voyage and had probably committed suicide. Another example was the ore-carrier Berlitz recounted as lost without trace three days out of an Atlantic port when it had been lost three days out of a port with the same name in the Pacific Ocean. Kusche also argued that a large percentage of the incidents attributed to the Bermuda Triangle's mysterious influence actually occurred well outside it.\n\nKusche came to several conclusions:\n\n    * The number of ships and airplanes reported missing in the area was not significantly greater, proportionally speaking, than any other part of the ocean.\n    * In an area frequented by tropical storms, the number of disappearances that did occur was neither disproportionate, unlikely, nor mysterious.\n    * The numbers themselves had been exaggerated by sloppy research. A boat listed as missing would be reported, but not necessarily its eventual, if belated, return to port.\n    * The circumstances of confirmed disappearances were frequently misreported in Berlitz's accounts. The numbers of ships disappearing in supposedly calm weather, for instance, did not tally with weather reports published at the time.

I'm very much a realist, but I have one story I cannot expalin.\n\nI was watching what I thought was a helicopter off the coast of Maine.  It was hovering and slowly moving around an island roughly seven miles away.  It was late afternoon, so the light was fantastic and the air, for once, was very clear.\n\nThis object slid back and forth maybe 3000-4000 feet high (triangulate from the distance) and then it did two strange things:  it sort of oscillated in a tight radius back and forth, like lint getting sucked down a bath drain, and then it just winked out of sight.  It didn't exactly disappear all at once, rather, it kind of took a moment or two.  I thought it might had slipped into a fog bank, but there was no fog; I could see distant color in the sky.\n\nI don't think about this experience so much anymore.  But I do get chills when I do recall that day.  I have no explanation, and I offer no theories.  But that's my story.

No, I don't beleive that it was a hoax, but I do beleive that there are things that our government has covered up. \n\nI beleive that planes hit the towers because I witnessed it and bodies were found, etc.\n\nI beleive that it was not a plane that hit the pentagon but one of our own missiles. Why...I'll never understand. There were no bodies of anyone on the plane and the damage to the pentagon does not coincide with any impact of a airliner of that size. \n\nI beleive that there was no crash in Pennsylvania either. There is too much evidence, or should I say lack of. There was never any wreckage found. No bodies! No anything but a few strategically placed pieces of fabric. \n\nWhat horrifies me is what happened to all of these people?\n\nI do not beleive in conspiracy theories at all, but after watching this. It has changed my life forever. I see you have a link to the 1st one. Here is the link to the 2nd edition. It's long but well worth it. Please watch!\nhttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8260059923762628848\n\nI lost 2 very dear friends that day. I will never forget, it breaks my heart that things like this happened. \n\nI just wish the government would release the rest of the information and finally tell us the truth!

There is no real mystery to Bermuda Triangle. The main reason that so many incidences happened there was because it is a high traffic area. Just like a city road would have higher accidents than a rural road, Bermuda has more accidents than other routes. Some of the other reasons according to Kusche (a researcher) is:\n\n # In an area frequented by tropical storms, the number of disappearances that did occur were, for the most part, neither disproportionate, unlikely, nor mysterious.\n\n# The numbers themselves had been exaggerated by sloppy research. A boat listed as missing would be reported, but its eventual, if belated, return to port, may not be reported.\n\n# The circumstances of confirmed disappearances were frequently misreported in Berlitz's accounts. The numbers of ships disappearing in supposedly calm weather, for instance, did not tally with weather reports published at the time.\n\n# "The Legend of the Bermuda Triangle is a manufactured mystery... perpetuated by writers who either purposely or unknowingly made use of misconceptions, faulty reasoning, and sensationalism.

The energy source is methane gas and there are no alien spaceships or suburbs of Atlantis here. The myth of the Bermuda Triangle, the mysterious disappearances and strange events, has generated much interest all over the world through the years. Charles Berlitz’s book on the subject, published in 1974, sold nearly 20 million copies in 30 languages. Ships, boats, and even aeroplanes are all said to have disappeared in this area and all the mystery has been attributed to extraterrestrials. But scientists now have an explanation for these phenomena and the cause is not extraterrestrial but chemical. It goes by the name of methane gas hydrate, which is methane (created by decomposing organic debris) that has been entombed in an ice crystalline. Conditions are ideal for the formation of this gas in areas of permafrost. Another area is the deep sea floor where the pressure and the temperature are right for the creation of this gas. \n\nIt was only in 1981 that a geochemist, Richard McIver, went public on a link between methane gas blowouts and the Bermuda Triangle myth. He stated that massive landslides often occur along the North American continental shelf, which lies to the north of the Bermuda Triangle. Such land slumps can occur over a large area bringing down huge boulders which rupture the layer of gas hydrate beneath the sea floor, freeing the gas that is trapped beneath the hydrate ‘cap’ and also liberating huge amounts of methane trapped within the hydrate itself. The moment a methane gas pocket ruptures a vast reservoir of gas suddenly surges from the seabed, rising up in a huge plume before erupting on the surface within seconds and without warning. A ship caught in such a blowout would be doomed; the water beneath it would suddenly become much less dense, sinking it in a matter of moments. The vessel would plunge into the depths, where it would be covered as sediment disturbed by the blow out settles back on the sea floor. In fact, planes too could fall prey to such a deadly fallout. \n\nThe US geological Survey has estimated that just two small areas off the coasts of North and South Carolina, which are a part of the Bermuda Triangle, contain about 70 times the quantity of gas consumed annually in USA. The sea bed and the areas of permafrost are therefore storehouses of a great energy source. It has been estimated that just 1% of gas hydrate is equivalent to half the present conventional gas reserves. But the bad news is that methane is a greenhouse gas and it is vulnerable to blowouts when drillings go wrong. It is only stable under narrow temperature and pressure conditions and would decay due to global warming. We will have to wait and see whether it gives us energy to burn or it burns us up instead!

bermuda triangle is a name given to the area off coast of usa which  has a large magnetical disturbance and a tempermental climate. There are countless reports of missing vessels and aircraft that have gone through that region.. one of the most famous being the missing squad of bombers during world war 2 that disapeared off the radar. There are even reports of entire submarines and cargo ships missing... what exactly goes on in that area is unclear BUT it actually is avoided by the air and naval fleets.\nWHY IS IT THE WAY IT IS? Noone knows, noone has succeeded to explain either.

Basically, there is no secret about the 'Bermuda Triangle'. If you compare the rate of ship-loss and aircraft loss to other, equally busy shipping channels around the world, there basically is no statistical difference between the number of ships lost in the Bermuda Triangle and ships lost anywhere else in the world. Lloyds of London insures things such as ships and aircraft so they were capable of making statistical analysis and the shipping lane and found nothing out of the ordinary. The only thing out of the ordinary is how so many people caught onto the books released in i believe the 50's where authors attempted to make some money by blowing the mishaps in the Bermuda Triangle out of proportion.

1. Who knows (I think so) \n2. see #1\n3. Nobody knows\n4. They were kept hidden.  We aren't even sure if the black smoke was them.\n5. Nobody knows, but that could explain the hatch door getting to the beach... maybe there was no explosion\n6. Looked like northern russia - or at least sounded Russian, looked more like antartica - who knows???\n\nCAN'T WAIT TO FIND OUT!  BEST SHOW EVER!\n\nEdit: a couple other things that bother me:\n\nIf desmond crashed the plane totally by accident, what's with the coincidence of Desmond having encountered so many people from the plane in the previous years?  \n\n...and...\n\nWhat the hell is with that 4-toed statue??

My brine's awash with possible theories. I haddock a few answers, but they all turned out to be damp squids. It's the sea air, it fogs the senses. Time to stop carping on . Ah whelk, i'll say tartar. Nothing newt there then.

I believe there are many different planes/alternate dimensions/timelines/etc.

The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle, is a geographical area in the Atlantic Ocean approximately triangular in shape and is famous for its supposed paranormal activities. The Bermuda Triangle's three corners are roughly defined by Bermuda, Puerto Rico, and Fort Lauderdale, Florida, giving it an area of nearly half a million square miles (1.2 million km²).\n\nParanormal Claims:\n\n"A significant number of ships and aircraft have disappeared under highly unusual circumstances." \n"Paranormal activity where the known laws of physics are violated." \nIt has even been suggested that "extraterrestrial beings are responsible for some of the disappearances."\n\nThe Triangle marks a corridor of the north Atlantic stretching northward from the West Indies along the North American seaboard as far as the Carolinas. To take advantage of prevailing winds, ships returning to Europe during the Age of Sail would sail north to the Carolinas before turning east to cross the north Atlantic. This pattern continued after the development of steam and internal combustion engines, meaning that much of the north Atlantic shipping traffic crossed (and still crosses) through the Triangle's area.\n\nThe Gulf Stream, an area of volatile weather, also passes through the Triangle as it leaves the West Indies. The combination of heavy maritime traffic and tempestuous weather made it inevitable that vessels would founder in storms and be lost without trace, especially before the telecommunications, radar and satellite technology of the late twentieth century. The occasional vessel still sinks, but rarely without a trace.\n\nOther areas often purported to possess unusual characteristics are the Devil's Sea, located near Japan, and the Marysburgh Vortex (or "Great Lakes Triangle"), located in eastern Lake Ontario. However, the "Devil's Sea" is not particularly well known in Japan, due to the fact that most of the boats lost were small fishing boats with no radios.

I don't know what the hell you're talking about, but I'll tell you this. Alot of the things that we think are "unexplainable" and actually just "unexplained" ... and we'll know more in the future than we do today. So it's all a matter of perspective, dontchaknow.

They all could be real, or a figment of ones imagination. It is one of life's mysteries. Some things are meant to be left alone.
