Excuse me, is this really the case in Bermuda Triangle? How come some books say it's hype? There is no such thing at all.

Overview

The origin of the name "Bermuda Devil Triangle" is that on December 5, 1945, the American 19th Flying Team suddenly disappeared during training. At that time, the scheduled flight plan was a triangle, so people later extended the western Atlantic Ocean on the southeast coast of the United States from Bermuda in the north to Miami in the south of Florida, then passed through the Bahamas, crossed Puerto Rico, and reached San Juan near the 4th west longitude. Hundreds of ships and planes have crashed in this area, and thousands of people have died here. From 188 to 1976, there were about 158 disappearances, most of which occurred in the 3 years since 1949. There were 97 disappearances, and at least 2, people died or disappeared here. These strange and mysterious disappearances are mainly in an area called "the sargasso sea" in the western Atlantic Ocean, which is a wide water area between 2-4 north latitude and 35-75 west longitude. Here is the world-famous Mexican warm current, which is 12-19 kilometers per day and night, and there are many whirlpools, typhoons and tornadoes. Not only that, the depth of the sea here is 4-5 meters, and there is Puerto Rico trench, which is more than 7 meters deep and the deepest is 9218 meters.

Causes

Up to now, the explanations of "Bermuda Devil's Triangle" can be summarized into the following categories: One category thinks that these disappearances are caused by supernatural reasons, and it is associated with whether alien flying saucers are at work. The second category thinks that it is caused by natural causes, such as geomagnetic anomalies, ocean floor cavities, and even some people put forward the theory of bubbles, clear-sky turbulence, water bridges, black holes, etc., and use some strange natural phenomena to explain that "everything is in the devil's triangle." Recently, a British geologist, Professor Kleiner of Leeds University, put forward a new viewpoint. He believes that the culprit that often causes shipwrecks or crashes in Bermuda waters is the huge biogas bubbles generated at the bottom of the sea. A crystal composed of frozen water and biogas was found under the seabed strata in Bermuda. When there is a violent earthquake at the bottom of the sea, the massive crystals buried underground are turned out, and they will vaporize quickly because of the reduction of external pressure. A large number of bubbles rise to the water surface, which reduces the density of seawater and loses its original buoyancy. Ships passing here at this time will sink to the bottom of the sea like stones. If a plane happens to pass by at this time, when the biogas meets the burning plane engine, it will undoubtedly burn and explode immediately and disappear. On the contrary, some people think that these strange disappearance phenomena are not related to each other, thus denying the existence of Baimu in the Devil's Triangle. Whether this mysterious veil of Bermuda has been unveiled remains to be verified by future generations.

Case

The most puzzling of all kinds of strange events that have happened since this century is probably the disappearance of a series of planes and ships in the Bermuda Triangle.

The so-called Bermuda Triangle refers to a triangular sea area starting from Bermuda in the north, reaching Miami, Florida, USA in the west and Puerto Rico in the south. In this sea area of 4O square miles, hundreds of planes and ships have mysteriously disappeared here since 1945. Of course, these disappearances do not include mechanical failures, political kidnappings, robbery by sea bandits, etc., because this

walk into the ancient villages to touch the living fossils, take stock of the May 1 Golden Week in 27, walk into the subway to enjoy the unique scenery and focus on some well-known domestic enterprises, which do not belong to the category of mysterious disappearance.

due to the overlapping of events, people have given this sea area the names of "Devil's Triangle", "Bad Sea", "Magic Sea" and "Graveyard of seagoing vessels". These horns, in turn, set off the unique mysterious and fearful atmosphere here.

Now, Bermuda Triangle has become synonymous with mysterious and incomprehensible disappearances.

on the earth we are familiar with, why is there such a magical and unexplained corner unique? How can a series of incredible things happen? What on earth is causing trouble in the Bermuda Triangle?

1. Missing aircraft group

Captain Taylor of the US Air Force is an experienced pilot. He has flown a plane for 25 hours in the air, which is not a record that ordinary people can do.

On December 5th, 1945, as the captain of the 19th Flying Team, Captain Taylor led the flying team to take off from Fort Lauderdale Airport in Florida. He and 14 pilots flew five revenge torpedo bombers to perform a flight training mission.

everything is normal and the weather is fine, which is an ideal flight weather.

Their task is to fly a triangular voyage, fly due east over the Bahamas, then fly north, and then return along the last sideline of the triangle.

When the flight team flew over the Bahamas, the base suddenly received a report from Lieutenant Taylor and pilot Bowles that the compass was out of order and they couldn't figure out their altitude. By the time the film arrived, the signal received by the base headquarters was getting worse and worse, as if all the pilots were in a panic. Of course, the headquarters also panicked.

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the headquarters heard Captain Taylor's voluntary and trembling call:

"Something unusual happened! We don't know why we deviated from the course. "

the headquarters said, "report your position!"

Taylor: "I don't know where I am. I don't know where it is!" "

Command: "Then you fly west!"

Taylor: "There is something wrong with the azimuth meter, and the pointer doesn't move. We couldn't tell the direction clearly, and all we saw was the sea.

The base headquarters didn't feel the seriousness of the problem at that time. Because there is enough fuel on the plane to cope with a four-hour flight. Besides, Captain Taylor's flying skills are reassuring. The command immediately ordered another plane with normal instrument to replace Taylor.

But ten minutes later, the base headquarters received another report:

"Alarm! We are lost again now, and we can't see the land ... Everything is in a mess, and even the sea seems to be different from usual! "

At this time, Captain Le Tai's voice came: "We seem to be over the Gulf of Mexico ..."

The base was surprised. Why did they deviate from the course and fly to the Gulf of Mexico? At d in the afternoon, the five planes were flying blindly without knowing where they were located. The dialogue between them shocked the base greatly, and all the instruments failed. Their readings are all different, even the sunset in the west is seen. If they see the sun, they will correct their course. Finally, the voice that broke the heart of the base came:

"We're finished ... and started to sink into the water ..."

The radio signal became weaker and weaker until it was silent. At this time, the hour hand is pointing to 7: 4. Captain Taylor, together with his 14 partners and the five planes, disappeared from the earth.

the headquarters felt that this matter was incomprehensible and immediately decided to send a plane to look for it.

a few minutes later, a "Martin" maritime search machine was ordered to take off. The search plane is piloted by 13 crew members.

however, this maritime search machine is also missing. It seemed to go straight to the missing tiger's mouth and disappeared quietly without even a sound.

in just a few hours, six planes and 27 pilots were all gone, which is simply inexplicable. Have they been swallowed up by the sky?

The next day, the American authorities attached great importance to this incident and conducted the largest search and rescue activity in history. The US Navy has dispatched 21 ships, including aircraft carriers, hundreds of speedboats and motorboats, and more than 3O planes, which means that the US Navy has used all the ships and planes that can be used near Florida waters. Search every inch of the sea from Bermuda to the Gulf of Mexico and found nothing.

according to common sense, if the plane crashes into the sea, it should at least leave traces of floating oil flowers on the sea. However, nothing was left, as if nothing had happened. The sea is still so blue and quiet.

The official in charge of Sao Xun's rescue said to his boss in dismay:

"God knows what happened, and we can't even estimate what might have happened!"

When this incident was revealed, Bermuda became famous. With people's attention to this sea area, the incredible disappearance of the plane becomes even more frightening-

At 22: 3 on December 27th, 1948, a DC-3 large civil aviation flight took off from San Francisco Airport and passed over Bermuda. The ground control tower heard the captain's surprised voice:

"What's going on? Are they all singing Christmas songs? "

no one thought of the meaning contained in this sentence.

At 4: 3am on 28th, the flight also sent a telegram to the airport-"Approaching the airport, lights are visible, ready to land." The airport is ready for landing.

but this DC-3 flight never landed at the airport. It disappeared before landing, and of course the crew and all the passengers did not survive.

I kept normal contact with the airport a minute ago, and this disappearance seems to have happened in an instant. Like a hole in the sky, the plane fell into the hole and became silent.

2. The navigator's graveyard

What kind of sea area is the Bermuda Triangle? We may get a glimpse of this sea area 3 years ago from what Columbus saw and heard when he first sailed through this sea area.

In p>152, when Columbus spent the fourth time in America, he passed through the Bermuda Triangle.

On this day, Columbus stood at the bow, but he saw a clear sky and Wan Li, and the sea was calm. Suddenly, the wind blew suddenly, and the sky was dark. Huge waves of tens of meters high came at the fleet like walls.

Qi Xin, a sailor, made a concerted effort to turn the course, but all the navigation instruments on board failed. The pointer on the magnetic compass pointed northwest instead of due north, with a deviation of 6 degrees. The ship got out of control and was pushed by the wind and waves.

Columbus was lucky. After several days and nights of tossing and turning, the ship finally didn't sink. To his surprise, the storm that fell from the sky came to an abrupt end, and it ended when the storm said it was over, and it was calm immediately.

Columbus wrote all this in detail in his nautical diary. In his letter to the King of Spain, he also talked about this unforgettable experience-

At that time, the waves rolled and we couldn't see the sun and stars for eight or nine days in a row ... I have seen all kinds of storms in my life, but I have never encountered such a long and violent storm.

The problem is that Columbus came back to life, and his experiences at least belong to those that can be explained. So, what happened to those who didn't survive? Of course, it was an unexplained experience that no one saw-

In August 184, a French sailboat "Lochari" was sailing off Bermuda. The ship is pulling the sails, and the sails are full, which shows that it cares about sailing quietly. What is puzzling is that it seems to float with the wind without a goal. People were surprised and rowed up. They found the ship quiet. Only after boarding the ship did I know that there was no one on board, but the goods such as silks and satins in the cargo hold were intact, and the fruits were still fresh and touched by people. However, why did all the sailors on board run away? No one can answer, the only living creature on board is a canary half starved, but it can't talk.

I don't know what happened on the ship, but everyone is sure that an incredible thing must have happened on the ship.

in p>1872, another strange thing happened in this area.

A brig "Maria Celeste" is floating 1 nautical miles west of Azores. When it was discovered, the ship was empty, and there was delicious food on the table in the cabin, and there were still unfinished coffee and water in the teacups. The wall clock on the wall moves normally, and there is a small bottle of oil on the sewing machine table. All this can't explain why the owner abandoned the ship except that the ship didn't encounter wind and waves.

In p>1944, the Cuban cargo ship "Rubicon" also had a strange case in which people went to the ship. When people boarded the floating ship, only one dog was lying alone on the deck.

In p>1963, the American oil tanker "Marlene Case" crossed this sea area. On the second day of sailing, the operator on board also reported to the shore: "The sailing is normal, and the position is 26 degrees 4 minutes north latitude and 73 degrees west longitude." But this was the last message sent to the world by the "Marlene Case", and it has disappeared since then. No one can imagine that such an oil tanker equipped with modern navigation and communication equipment disappeared from this sea area without leaving any oil flowers.

The American cargo ship "One Eye" is a giant cargo ship with a length of 542 feet and 39 sailors. In March 1918, it was filled with manganese ore in Brazil and disappeared on the way back to Norfolk, Virginia. At that time, the weather was fine, and there was no possibility that the wind and waves would overturn the ship. It was speculated that the "One Eye" was probably attacked by German submarines during the war. However, after the war, people consulted the wartime records of the German navy and found that no German submarine had appeared on the "one-eyed" route at that time. Such a huge ship with radio communication equipment, how did it disappear without even sending out a "SOS" signal?

In August p>1935, the sailors of the Italian cargo ship Lex witnessed the American schooner Radhomer being gradually swallowed up by the waves, and they spared no effort to rescue the drowning sailors of Radhomer from the sea. But five days later, the sailors of Lex were surprised to find that Radhomer was floating on the sea. This is not an illusion, because the sailors on the Lex, together with the sailors on the Radhomer rescued by them, boarded the schooner Radhomer.

how can a sunken ship drift back to the sea? People can't explain it

3. Who's doing the mischief here?

Since there are so many strange events here, people naturally have to ask what's doing the mischief here.

in October, 1951, a Brazilian warship sailed in the sea southwest of the Arroyo Islands, and then the ship and sailors mysteriously disappeared together. The next day, Brazil sent planes and ships to look for it. When a seaplane searched the sea, it found a huge black object under the sea, and the speed was amazing. This shows that this is by no means an underwater creature, and its huge volume also shows that it is not a fish in the water. On this night and the next morning, someone saw a strange and extremely bright light in this sea area, but no one could tell where this strange object and strange light came from.

The memories of those who escaped from the Devil's Triangle may give us some clues.

a captain of the American shipwreck rescue company said that he once returned to Florida from Puerto Rico, and on the way, the needle of the compass on board suddenly swung violently. Although the diesel engine was still running, there was no power. The waves came at the ship from all directions, and there was no horizontal line. There was thick fog on all sides of the ship. He hurriedly ordered the engineer to go ahead at full speed and finally rushed out of the fog. Strangely enough, there is no big wave and fog on the sea outside this fog. Sailors say, never in my life.
