is the bemuda triangle a myth?

Answer 1

No. Many ships and planes have dissapeared here under abnormal circumstances. The edmund fitzgerald was a ship on the great lakes that some would claim dissapeared under abnormal circumstances but in reality the ship was found shortly after it sank, they radioed trouble with rough seas, and evidence was found people abandoned ship. The dissapearances in the Bermuda Triangle are very strange because there is no good explaination for why they may have happened, they occur with no warning, and other strange factors account. Some studies have found that methane clouds erupt from the seabed there. Since methane is lighter than air it can cause plane altitude monitors to go haywire and cause the plane to crash into the sea without ever realizing what is going on.

Answer 2

"The boundaries of the Triangle vary with the author; some stating its shape is akin to a trapezium covering the Florida Straits, the Bahamas, and the entire Caribbean island area east to the Azores; others add to it the Gulf of Mexico. The more familiar, triangular boundary in most written works has as its points Miami, Florida, San Juan, Puerto Rico, and the mid-Atlantic island of Bermuda, with most of the incidents concentrated along the southern boundary around the Bahamas and the Florida Straits." (That is from Wikipedia, under the article "Bermuda Triangle".)

It is most certainly not a myth. That section of the Earth truly does exist, I can promise you. It does not generally appear with a triangle around it on maps, but this can be compared to land masses not actually having the nation boundaries. It may or may not actually swallow up anything that passes through it. That's as open as Mothman.

Answer 3

Few years back i read a report in Times of India about this phenomenon. First of all its not a myth but a true occurance, the reasons for which are fairly understandable. In the seabed of the so called triangle, lies vast quantities of frozen methane. Methane has a property of directly changing its state from solid to gas. Hence as it vapourises at a very high pressure, the gas methane rushes up at a very violent speed. This makes the waters rough and forms whirlpools. Above the sea level , the gas rises at a high speed causing turbulance in atmosphere which explains disappearance of aeroplanes.

Scientists are of view that this may actually turn out to be a very rich source of fuel in future.

Answer 4

No, the Bermuda triangle is not a myth. There have been many disappearances that were not explainable. They now believe that the cause is massive amounts of escaping methane gas. When there is allot of gas bubbles in water, the water loses its density and ships cannot float. Methane is lighter then air which would give an air planes altimeter a false reading and make the pilot think he is higher then he really is. He would attempt to adjust his altitude and fly lower causing him to fly into the ocean.

Answer 5

There really is a zone called Bermuda Triangle, that has had more than it's share of ship/ plane wrecks. Best explanation is some kind of magnetic activity, maybe from Iron ore in the sub-terrainian rocks that make the instruments go hey wire.

Answer 6

no isnt a myth for over a century there has been many ship wrecks and disappeared without a trace also some aeroplanes has seen accidents
in this part of the world. some scintsts say there are many natural death zones in this planet and bermuda is one of them here they say there is some magnetic field which is hazardous for any instrument to get operated and some fligts lose signals in this triangle.

Answer 7

No Virgina, there actually is a place, somewhat South of Florida, where the Earth's magnetic field acts quite a bit differently than 'normal', where the turbulent weather patterns mess with the instrument readings of planes and ships to the extent that they often get lost and run out of fuel.....

Answer 8

I can assure you that the bemuda triangle is a very real place....

Answer 9

The ffects of it are a myth yes, the coast guard and the insurance companies have data showing it has the same rate of accidents as any other place in the world.

Answer 10

I dont think so!!! There is a place which is called Bermuda triangle !! Of course Not on MAP. But it does exist or else how do explaing vanishing of so many plans and ships in the same area.
