The Bermuda Triangle continues to be a magnet for
questions for believers and non-believers alike. I agree that while there is no
scientific "proof" that the triangle caused planes, people, and ships there are a number
of theories.
One is that the area is known for very
unpredictable weather. Sudden and fierce storms are common there as well as weather
conditions that cause water spouts. These are so powerful that they would destroy
anything in the air or on the waters surface. Any wreckage would quickly be washed away
by the Gulf Stream currents. Alternatively, if a ship sank just a few miles from the
coast of the US, it would sink in more than 5,000 feet of water making it almost
impossible to find.
The triangle is also one of 2 places on
Earth where a compass points to true north rather than magnetic north. This makes it
difficult for some navigators to know where they really are. This loss of compass
heading was experienced by the space shuttle when flying over this
area.
There are many more bizarre theories which you can
research if you like but scientific proof...not there!
