How did "Bermuda" change from a tourist attraction to a murderous sea?

When it comes to "unsolved mysteries", we first think of those weird things. The reason why it is called "unsolved mysteries" is mainly because at the time this matter could not be based on scientific evidence. Methods and means are used to explain it, so it is an idea and title tentatively set by people. But the fact that it cannot be solved at the time does not mean that it cannot be solved in the future with the development of technology and times.

Compared to some older people born in the 1980s and 1990s, their childhoods must have been filled with many topics about "unsolved mysteries". For example, people must have had questions about some "unsolved mysteries" in the world. Mystery", these topics attract. For example, "Crop Circles", "The Curse of the Pharaohs in the Egyptian Pyramids", "Loch Ness Monster" and so on. Among these many "weird phenomena", the "Bermuda Triangle" is definitely the most talked about one.

The "mysterious" sea area

The name "Bermuda Triangle" is strange. It was not named by a geologist, a meteorologist, or some other person. It was named after pilots and sailors, but was named by a novelist. What exactly is this matter about?

The reason starts from 1964. An American novelist, Center Gaddis, wrote a series of suspense novels. In order to enhance the reader's real-life experience in the novel, he over-represented the disasters and shipwrecks that occurred in the Bermuda Triangle. According to the description, the shipwrecks here are infinitely magnified, saying that the shipwrecks that occurred here far exceed those in other sea areas.

Then publish your work to a magazine that does not have very high quality requirements. Since this novel is just to attract readers' attention, it does not pay attention to the true situation of the matter in the content of the novel. However, it is precisely because of his excessive description that it indeed attracts the interest of many readers and makes this novel more interesting. This novel has been widely circulated.

It is precisely because this novel has been widely circulated that some magazines and writers, after learning that this topic was deeply loved by readers, included all topics about shipwrecks in their works. They all wrote the name of the Bermuda Triangle to increase the sales of their works. Therefore, the shipwrecks in the Bermuda Triangle during that period placed all the shipwrecks that did not originally occur in the Bermuda Triangle in this place, so that the number of shipwrecks in the Bermuda Triangle increased rapidly, and the name "Bermuda Triangle" was It instantly became a mysterious topic.

In an era when the Internet world was not developed enough, people could only learn about the outside world through some simple books and news. In our country, people in the 1980s and 1990s only had some simple TV programs and books to obtain information, so the mysterious topic of the "Bermuda Triangle" deeply attracted them and became part of their memory. .

The real "Bermuda Triangle"

The real Bermuda Triangle has a beautiful environment, the water and sky are the same color, and the temperature is suitable. Every year, it attracts many tourists to come here for vacation, sunbathing, boating, and surfing. It is a good tourist attraction.

Shipwrecks have indeed occurred here in the Bermuda Triangle, but compared with other sea areas, the number is very small. There are not as many and terrible things as in the legend. The "Bermuda Triangle" is an area of ??water located in the Atlantic Ocean. It refers to the sea area formed by the three points connecting Bermuda, Miami in the United States and San Juan in Puerto Rico, forming an isosceles triangle.

According to real historical records, it was the world-famous navigator Columbus who first arrived in this triangular sea area. During his voyage from Europe to America, a strong wind suddenly appeared on the sea. , and a series of problems such as the position of the sun could not be determined, the compass used for navigation could not distinguish the direction, and all the instruments on the ship failed, so that the sailors and helmsmen could not distinguish the direction.

But fortunately, they came to a valley by accident, so they all survived. After checking the compass, I found that the direction of the pointer deviated by a certain degree from the true direction. Columbus then reported the incident to the king.

This thing seems strange because there was no scientific basis to explain it at the time, but it doesn’t seem strange now. The most strange thing happened later. , a ship transporting goods from France lost contact after sailing into this sea area. A few weeks later, the Navy discovered the lost ship in the waters of the Bermuda Triangle. All the cargo carried on the ship at that time was there, but there was no one on the ship. They all disappeared.

After that, the U.S. Air Force lost contact with the Navy when flying its plane over this sea area. People and planes disappeared at the same time. Not only that, the ship that went to search and rescue was also lost. People and boats disappeared.

These strange things can still have real historical traces that can be found, but there are countless incidents that have been added for no reason. It is precisely because of this topic that the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle has increased.

"Scam" made out of nothing

To sum up, there are only two reasons for the occurrence of these events, one is natural and the other is unnatural. Unnatural causes refer to the reason why these ships and people disappear for no reason. They can only think of aliens. It was alien flying saucers that took them away.

Natural causes are a series of events caused by various natural phenomena. Among them are problems with the earth's magnetic field and holes in the ocean floor. There are no less than ten theories in summary. In short, it means using some strange natural phenomena to explain what is happening here.

People are more interested in these things that cannot be explained by exact and scientific methods, which makes the mysterious topic of "Bermuda Triangle" continue, forming a phenomenon and gaining widespread popularity. Spread. But in fact, the reason for all this is a "hoax". No matter which reason is used to explain what happened in this sea area, it is because of the fact that there were many shipwrecks in this sea area. caused by the topic.

In fact, these things are nothing more than a gimmick for hype and publicity to increase attention. They were not real things from the beginning, and the topics and issues arising from subsequent developments are naturally not real. It was just because some strange things that happened at that time did not receive correct scientific guidance and understanding, so people began to think wildly and make up some strange explanations, but these were not confirmed by scientific methods, so these are not true. Yes, the origin of this topic is a scam from beginning to end. It has deceived many people born in the 80s and 90s.
