True Life Mysteries - The Bermuda Triangle


*No, it's not Ground Hog Day and I'm not Andie McDowell (I wish!) or Bill Murray, so in case you think you're seeing double...you are! Pam Ripling and I must have great minds, because we think alike! Therefore, we both posted on the same subject. Enjoy this 2nd story about...

The Bermuda Triangle, also known as The Devil's Triangle, has been the subject of controversy and mystery for decades. The most familiar boundary has as its points somewhere on the Atlantic coast of Miami, San Juan, Puerto Rico and Bermuda with most of the accidents concentrated along the southern boundary around the Bahamas and the Florida Straits.

According to legend, strange happenings have been documented as early as Christopher Columbus who reported his compass showed unusual readings in the Sargasso Sea, and have continued through the centuries.

Perhaps the most famous story has been the DEC 5, 1945 disappearance of Flight 19, a group of 5 TBM Avenger Navy bombers that took off from the coast of Fort Lauderdale, FL. It is claimed that the flight leader was heard saying, "We are entering white water, nothing seems right. We don't know where we are, the water is green, no white." Although wreckage of similar planes have been found, whatever happened to Flight 19 remains a mystery.

Many explanations have been offered from UFO's, to methane gas, to rogue waves. The only things more plentiful than the number of disappearances of ships, planes and people, are the number of explanations!

Everything you'd ever want to know about The Bermuda Triangle!
What are your favorite theories? Got any new ones??
