Better Essays

Peculiar Twilight Zone Tanker ships and passenger planes vanishing as if into mid-air; tragic yet intriguing to scientists. The negative influence of the Bermuda Triangle on the world is detrimental to the concept of maritime safety and understanding. The lack of scientific background for the occurrences is not necessarily due to a lack of desire to discover the true cause. The continual disastrous events play a significant role in the beliefs of many individuals from around the globe. The disappearances of multi-ton ships proves the severity and intensity of the situation out at sea. The Bermuda Triangle has been a controversial phenomenon for many years, along with many reasonable theories; however, society still cannot decide what to …show more content…

¨Hexagonal clouds could be the main reason for the disappearances. They are naturally occurring air bombs of on average, 170 mile per hour winds,¨ (Ratner). The formation of these clouds are not uncommon within the surrounding areas so it is a likely chance that air bombs with a much higher speed are developing throughout the ¨triangle¨ zone. Another naturally developing force of nature are underwater canyons. ¨The Bermuda Triangle has underwater canyons with some measuring an estimated 5.5 miles in depth,¨ (Levette 44). There is a possibility that when these planes and ships vanish without even leaving behind a trace of oil, that they are literally just completely sinking down into these canyons where they can no longer be swept along with the tide. This would prove the reason for which no remains ever wash up onto land. The final geographical theory in which is going to be stated, is the development of methane bubbles. ¨Methane is created by the decomposing bodies of fish and other sea life,¨ (Ratner). The Methane bubbles are extremely strong for being a gas. ¨The gas is highly combustible, an eruption can cause planes to sink like rocks and planes flying above it to catch fire and completely get destroyed,¨ (Duffield 21). The development of these theories are still highly controversial and lacking of scientific support. With the understanding of
