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 is an approximate equilateral triangle with its three corners roughly defined by the islands of Bermuda (one corner) and Puerto Rico near its capital city San Juan (another corner), and near Miami, Florida (a third corner), giving it an area of nearly half a million square miles (1.2 million km²). (Other shapes have been proposed as well as dimensions and borders—see the map at the right and its caption.)

There are many claims of paranormal activity within the Triangle, especially the inexplicable disappearance of ships and aircraft, or of their crews. Other common claims made of the region are that the laws of physics do not operate here as they do elsewhere, or that extraterrestrial beings are responsible for the disappearances.

I grew up on a boat. Now, we're not talking about some 15' fishing boat that your dad keeps in the driveway, but a 48' sailing vessel. My dad made a buttload of money in the early 80's and we moved aboard for 3 1/2 years and just sailed around to see what we could see. Before we moved aboard, we completely rebuilt the boat and replaced anything and everything that showed signs of wear. New engine, electronics, batteries, sails, all navigation equipment, complete refit of the galley and quarters, the works. For all intents and purposes, this was a brand new boat that happend to have a 12 year old hull. While sailing in the Bahamas, we would occasionally have the compass go off by as much as 15 degrees for a few hours. That may not sound like much, but when you have nothing but water completely surrounding you and there isn't anywhere to "pull over to ask directions" it can get dicey about what you might run into. A 3 ton steel barge-mooring bouy will drop a small craft like ours to the bottom in seconds. One time in particular, we lost ALL electrical power for a little over an hour. We performed maintenance on the batteries weekly and I checked them personally. They read to be fully charged, however we couldn't even get the smallest light to come on anywhere. The main switch and all of the breakers were "on" but we had NO power. Fortunately, being a sailing vessel, it didn't make that big a difference in us getting anywhere. A decent sailor doesn't even need a rudder and can steer by using the sails. But still, we couldn't use any of the electronics that told us where we were. After about an hour, the power came back. We didn't make any changes to anything (although we had checked literally every circuit and switch in the entire system) but it was as if the electricity had just been allowed to work again. What causes it to happen? I have absolutely no idea. Is it true that strange things happen in the BT? I have absolutely no doubt. I've seen it.

It's a three sided area in the Atlantic Ocean formed by drawing imaginary lines between Key West Florida, Puerto Rico, and Bermuda.
Many ships and planes have disappeared while operating in this area. And many INTERESTING theories abound for the reason why.

an area of the ocean near bermuda that is triangular shaped and has had many incidents of unexplained ship and plane losses in past. probably because of methane gas released underwater that bubbles up and sinks ships and messes up airplane engines and gauges. also called the "devil's triangle"

its a geographical triangle in an ocean that is believed to be 'evil' or something because whenever a plane flies over it, it crashes, and whenever a ship goes through it, it sinks.
