The following theories have been used in the past by the Triangle writers to explain a myriad of incidents:
Atlantis
An explanation for some of the disappearances pinned the blame on left-over technology from Atlantis, for example, the activation of a still-operable death ray. Reputed psychic Edgar Cayce claimed that evidence for Atlantis would be discovered just off Bimini in 1968. New Agers view the Bimini Road as either a road, wall, or pier meant to service ships bound for Atlantis from Central and South America, or a breakwater built to protect fishing boats. Dr. Greg Little, who has well-established connections to Edgar Cayce, did a study and on-site investigation of the Bimini Road; he claimed that the road could not possibly be a natural formation, and could be the work of an early civilization. Skeptics, however, view the Bimini wall a natural formation, pointing out its probable natural origin.
UFOs
Theorists claim extraterrestrials captured ships and planes, taking them beyond our solar system. This was given a boost when topics like ESP, telekinesis, clairvoyance, and the like flowered in the middle-to-late 1960s, and was used as storylines for popular films like Close Encounters of the Third Kind and The UFO Incident.
Time warp
The proponents of this theory state that the many ships and planes entered a time warp to a different time, or dimension on the other side. Usually, the ship or aircraft in the story enters this dimension by way of a cloud. This has been a popular subject in television episodes of Star Trek and The Twilight Zone.
Anomalous phenomena
Charles Berlitz, grandson of a distinguished linguist and author of various additional books on anomalous phenomena, has kept in line with this extraordinary explanation, and attributed the losses in the Triangle to anomalous or unexplained forces.
Freak waves
This explanation is not without foundation, as they are caused by deep-water earthquakes or far-away storms; one such rogue wave wrecked the cruiser USS Memphis (CA-10) off the Dominican Republic on August 29, 1916, killing 40 men

People travel through th Bermuda Triangle everyday without incident. It just happens to be an area of water that many planes and ships have entered and never returned. No big mystery to it after all, most of the losses have been explained, or the missing craft and vessels discovered at the bottom of the ocean. The triangle covers the area of water from the Bermuda Islands to Puerto Rico to Miami, Florida.
