The bermuda triangle is nothing more than a magnetic anamoly caused by an uplift in the bedrock. Any magnetic disturbance would cause mechanical and navigational failure.

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.
Explanations are legion, and include death rays from Atlantis and UFO kidnappings. Less fantastic 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 pretty much a folktale.
True there are losses in the region, but statisticly fi you take an area of a similar size and place it near a coastline with a developed economy you will find similar numbers.
If it were such a menace Bermuda would not be able to get tourists to visit, since they are in the triangle.

The "Bermuda or devil's Triangle" is an imaginary section positioned off the southeastern Atlantic coast of america, it truly is observed for a intense prevalence of unexplained losses of ships, small boats, and plane. The apexes of the triangle are regularly regularly occurring to be Bermuda, Miami, Fla., and San Juan, Puerto Rico. interior the previous, wide, yet futile Coast shelter searches hence of technique of search for and rescue cases which incorporates the disappearance of a flight of 5 TBM Avengers almost immediately after take off from citadel Lauderdale, Fla., or the traceless sinking of united statesCyclops and Marine Sulphur Queen have lent credence to the conventional idea interior the secret and the supernatural features of the "Bermuda Triangle." infinite theories attempting to describe the numerous disappearances were provided for the time of the heritage of the realm. the most functional seem environmental and those bringing up human blunders. the overall public of disappearances might want to correctly be attributed to the realm's unique environmental helpful aspects. First, the "devil's Triangle" is between both places in the international that a magnetic compass does consider direction of real north. in many cases it factors in direction of magnetic north. the version between both is commonplace as compass version. the quantity of version alterations by technique of as a lot as twenty degrees as one circumnavigates the earth. If this compass version or blunders isn't compensated for, a navigator might want to locate himself some distance off target and in serious problem.

I saw on the discovery channel that the Bermuda triangle is no a mistery anymore, im gonna try to explain. There are gases underneath the sea (ground) that when they are released ..im talking about huge amounts of gases..this gases can sink a ship right away, and they prove it. Now airplanes...those gases are very light so when the airplane go through those gases its like a huge turbulence so they crash!
interesting

Its a truth of the past. There is a phenomenon there that messes with old compasses. The theory is that flight 19 an airforce training mission lost thier way. The compasses where malfuncioning and the pilots where confused they ran out of fuel and crashed into the sea. The planes where never found. Yet.

It is neither a true mystery or a manufactured one.
The explanations to the events are only theories.
