There is no scientific proof... because if there was that means it would have logical explanation for the phenomenon. So I found this for you..
New Theory Behind Bermuda Triangle Disappearances
This is an interesting twist on a natural phenomenon that may be responsible for the mysterious vanishings of various ships in the world's oceans.
"Methane bubbles from the sea floor could, in theory, sink ships and may explain the odd disappearances of some vessels, Australian researchers reported on Tuesday. . ."
"'A recent survey revealed the presence of a sunken vessel within the center of one particularly large eruption site, now known as the Witches Hole.'"
This is very intriguing, if true, and there seems to be a decent amount of evidence to support the idea. I have always favored natural explanations for things such as the Bermuda Triangle legends (and upon research, many of those "mysterious" disappearances are not really that mysterious), even though I am open to more mystical explanations. I don't want to say supernatural, since to me everything is natural by definition, including human civilization.
Some people are fond of the "Atlantis" theory behind the Bermuda Triangle, although I've never understood exactly how a sunken city would be devouring ships without a trace, or why. Even if you accept the premise, it breaks down upon further analysis.
The earth is capable of some pretty weird stunts. For centuries people have observed that many animals appear to be able to sense an impending earthquake. This was considered supernatural in some way, some inexplicable sign of animals' attunement with nature that humans lacked.
As it turns out, earthquakes are typically preceded by shifts in the earth's local magnetic field, which we know some animals can sense. The shifts appear to be caused by intense pressure of deep shifting soil against mineral deposits, such as quartz, creating a piezo-electric pulse that can be detected on sensitive electronic equipment.
This is just one example of how modern science finds reasonable explanations for things that seemed to be inexplicable or magical in nature. I'm confident that science will continue to discover more such fascinating tidbits. Our civilization is in its infancy, especially technologically speaking. We shouldn't be that surprised that we haven't learned the answer to everything yet, especially with only about 50 years worth of recorded data on things like climate phenomena.
Great question by the way.. =)

The truth or cause of the phenomenon referred to as the Bermuda triangle has been a mystery to scientist for quite some time now but one theory has literally risen to the surface as of late. Researchers have been looking into the possibility of a fissure on the sea floor that is releasing Methane gas Bubbles.The Bubbles could catch a passing ship on the surface by surprise and cause a multitude of disastrous results. For example the lift from the methane might capsize or rapidly flood a boats hull, Researchers even conducted a scaled experiment that showed that a larges enough release of gas could blow a large Vessel(cargo ship) in half. The Gas theory goes further in explain the Bermuda triangles disappearances . There has been several Aircraft disappear as well as boats over the years.The Methane gas might very well be responsible for this as well. Methane rising into the atmosphere could cause a catastrophic failure of an engine of enough was sucked through the intake and cause the plane the lose all power. I think there onto something with this theory .You can find out more about this on the Discovery channel site (I am assuming this being I saw the show about all of this on Discovery) Hope to have given you some insight.

Its a conspiracy by the USA GOVT. Actually some kind of secret coveted programme possibly a nuclear bomb manufacturing or a similar kind of activity is carried out by the USA and to keep it from eye of the international comunity this dissapperance had been engineered so that slowly that place will become controversial and people will refrain from going there.

Its just a normal bit of Ocean.
No scientific evidence of anything unusual.
