What really happened in the Bermuda Triangle?

[thejoefro]

If many sequencial things happened in the bermuda triangle, how could anyone live to tell about what happened or their theories on sea monsters that sunk the ships. What is the theory for the planes crashing in the BT? If you find any sites with info, please write.

Since the myth of the Bermuda Triangle started the size and position of the triangle has changed.
Everytime an incident occurs in the area they move the boundaries to add to the intrigue.
There are more maritime incidents and mysterious disappearances in the English Channel, does that mean theres a sea monster off the coast of Great Yarmouth?

As I mentioned in my answer to your earlier question about the Bermuda Triangle, there is a perfectly reasonable explanation for the incident involving a whole flight of aircraft being lost simultaneously there.

It is known that the leader of the group had some doubts about the accuracy of the compass in his own aeroplane and became convinced that they were somewhere else entirely rather than where they actually were. (This was recorded during radio transmissions between him and the control tower.) As a result, they overflew what was meant to be their turning-point on a triangular flight-plan. 

When they proceeded along the wrong path, he then mistook the outline of one island for another similarly-shaped one. This, of course, just compounded his initial error of place and direction. Eventually, they ended up simply flying off over the Atlantic Ocean until they ran out of fuel. End of story.

Limbo of the Lost was a book back in the 70s that looked into lots of losses, monsters, ships....Marie Celeste???? but you have got to factor in pirate activity for losses of ships and the like.......think the author was Charles Berlietz or something similar......loved it back then....

FACT

The bemuda triangle and its surrounding area has large deposits of limestone under its water. Periodically, depending on weather & undersea currents this reacts with the sea water releasing CO2 which bubbles to the surface in sometimes large quantitys.

If you pass gas through a liquid you reduce its density and make it harder for things to float on the suface, the area is a busy shipping channel and has higher than average traffic. Mix this with above and you have a higher than average dissaperance rate.

 

Because of the speed at which this type of sinking can occur there is often no time for a distress signal, and although this theory only covers naval dissapperances any reckage from air crashes can sink faster than normal adding to the rumours.

 

Dont panic!  Modern ships can cope with alot more than older sea-going vessels, and with modern communications, storys of the dreaded triangle have themselves dissappeared without a trace.
