It is an area in the open ocean that has "magnetic disturbance (problems with compas or finding direction)." Planes and ships etc have been lost there and there are stories of stange occurances there. It is off of the coast of florida and the area spoken of is in the form of a triangle. Within this triangle there are problems or magnetic disturbance that messes up your compas and therefore your sense of direction and then you crash because you go the wrong way.
It is really not that dangerous at all. Cruses go through it all the time and people boat and fly through all the time. but it does have a history and a couple of tall stories to go with it.

Different people have different answers, all of them include a patch of ocean in the gulf of mexico between Bermuda, Florida and Cuba but some people say it is hundreds of miles big and others will say thousands. There have even been people who said the Titanic was a victim of the Bermuda Triangle and it sank off the coast of Canada!
The big mystery of the Bermuda triangle is why so many ships have vanished there but the common explanation is that the area of the Bermuda triangle gets more sea traffic than most places. Since the development of satelite communication ships have stopped vanishing mysteriously in that area but people always love a good ghost story so the legend lives on.

The Bermuda Triangle is kept in a music shop owned by Hank Yackattack, down a dark alley somewhere in Stevenage. The Bermuda Triangle can be found right at the back of the shop, near the New Guinea Tambourine, Swedish Finger Cymbals and the Haitian Cowbell.
It's fairly dangerous, but not as dangerous as those I've listed above and certainly nowhere near the giddy heights of peril inhabited by the mauve Antarctican Boat Whistle and that percussion instrument of death, the Hawaii Vibra-slap.

Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle and the Limbo of the Lost, a geographical area of about 3,900,000 sq km (1,500,000 sq mi), between Bermuda, Puerto Rico, and Melbourne in Florida (located 55°W to 85°W and 30°N to 40°N), in which there have been numerous unexplained disappearances of ships and aircraft.
The mystery dates back as far as the mid-19th century, with a total of more than 50 ships and 20 aeroplanes having been lost in the Triangle. One of the more notorious cases was the disappearance of Flight 19. Five United States torpedo bombers left Fort Lauderdale on December 5, 1945, on a routine training flight in good conditions. None of them returned. Even the seaplane that was sent out to find them vanished. Other stories about the region include ships found abandoned with warm food left on the tables and planes that disappear without even making a distress call. The absence of wreckage is often cited as proof of the mysterious power of the Triangle.
Analyses suggest that fierce currents and deep water could explain the lack of wreckage, and point out that several of the losses attributed to the Bermuda Triangle actually occurred as far as 1,000 km (600 mi) outside it. Furthermore, military and civil craft pass through the region every day without mishap. As deep sea diving techniques improve it is likely that more of the lost vessels will be recovered, but it is equally likely that the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle will linger in the imagination for a long while yet.

its an area in the atlantic ocean
the fun part was when a guy looked at his notes and listed all the accidents that happened in the area. The bulk of the disaster falls within a certain area that takes a crude shape of a triangle. In his book he named the area the Bermuda Triangle. And that's how it got its name.

It isn't in a continent, it is an area off the coast of Central America a little under the Atlantic Ocean. It is dangerous because many scientists say that this spot generates a lot of magnetic energy which might lead it to being a culprit of random airplane and ship disappearances.
