What is mysterious about the mysterious delta?

Paranormal phenomena like UFOs and alien abductions terrify us, and so does the Bermuda Triangle. This article will take readers into the mysterious Bermuda.

The Bermuda Triangle is said to be a mysterious whirlpool that can kill people at will and engulf planes and ships. Someone mysteriously disappeared here, leaving only: "Something strange happened here.", but no news. Those who went looking for it found nothing. Others were buried under the sea.

Mysterious Bermuda, many ships and planes have never returned

Supernatural phenomena such as UFOs and alien abductions scare us, and so does the Bermuda Triangle. In this episode, we will take you to the Bermuda Triangle to investigate the truth behind the mystery.

Bermuda Triangle. It is located on the Atlantic Ocean and covers an area of ??450,000 square miles. Severe weather here can destroy aircraft and ships. A hurricane in the Bermuda Triangle contains more than 10,000 nuclear bombs. Waves at sea can be as high as 50 feet, equivalent to the height of a five-story building. Wind speeds can reach up to 200 miles per hour, which is four times more powerful than strong winds.

Even when the weather is calm, this triangular body of water with Miami, Bermuda in the north, and Puerto Rico in the south as its apex has claimed many lives. Some people disappeared out of thin air without sending any distress signal, and no survivors can tell us what happened. Others were buried under the huge waves and slept in tombs made of airplanes and ships.

We have no way of knowing exact statistics. But some planes, ships and people did disappear mysteriously. Some mysteries are not revealed until later. In 1918, the American supply ship Cyclops left Barbados and was no longer contactable.

In 1963, the USS Sulfur Queen made a routine call from near Key West and was never heard from again. Scientists believe there is nothing strange about Bermuda. Statistically speaking, the skeptics are not wrong either. However, as time went by, stories and legends grew.

But why is this body of water so mysterious? After the end of World War II, the Cold War began. The possibility of nuclear war frightens people. This sense of doubt and fear has also spawned many mysteries, which fill movies and popular culture.

There are reports that UFOs have been spotted over the United States, and many disappearances were ultimately explained as alien abductions. Every bizarre legend seems possible.

These tensions in the science fiction era led to numerous books and newspapers discussing mysterious disappearances and paranormal phenomena. At the same time, with the increase in sea and air transportation volume, casualties have also increased significantly.

In the mid-1960s, a writer for Merchant Marine magazine coined the term "Bermuda Triangle," making the mystery even more confusing.

Interviews with relevant witnesses and scientists

But which events are real? Which ones are just myths and legends? We interviewed many theorists, scientists, iconoclasts, experts and eyewitnesses. The mystery of the Bermuda Triangle also fascinates them.

UFO witness Paul Vance

Paul Vance believes that the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle does exist. He said he once saw a strange object while riding on a boat. That might be a UFO.

Paul Vance, an eyewitness who has seen UFOs, told us: "My friend Doug Gurton and I were preparing to leave West Palm Beach when I saw A white light streaked across the sky, and then stopped. It was definitely not a plane, but a white light. After it stopped, a smoke cloud appeared below, a bit like a tornado, but not as long as a tornado. The white light stopped, and the ship's engine began to spin wildly.

Shipwreck in Bermuda waters

We have no way to confirm or refute Paul Vance's story. Science has provided some reasonable explanations for the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle. The most common explanations are related to weather.

Extreme weather around the world can bring huge disasters to shipping and air transportation, and the Bermuda Triangle is no exception. . Here are the most terrifying weather phenomena on earth. So, are they responsible for the bizarre disappearances in the Bermuda Triangle?

We first think of these huge clouds and air masses that will evolve into the earth. The most violent storm in the world can reach a width of one hundred miles, with wind speeds of up to two hundred miles per hour. Wherever the hurricane hits, no planes or ships can escape the bad luck.

Sometimes, they are so powerful that even experienced hurricane observers are surprised. Jim Aders, a photographer who specializes in photographing storms, has experienced the Bermuda Triangle. The huge power of the hurricane.

Jim Elders described the horrific situation to us this way: "At that time, I was filming the scene where the bottom floor of the building was destroyed by a huge wave. I was about to cross the street when a huge wave came from behind and knocked me to the ground. "He almost lost his life. The huge impact swept him away and rushed him into the waves 300 feet away.

He finally escaped and was lucky to escape.

Interview with meteorologists Jim Rusha and Robert Rogers

Jim Rusha and Robert Rogers, scientists at the National Hurricane Center in Miami, Florida, analyze the intensity and evolution of each hurricane Trends are monitored in detail.

No matter how hard scientists try, nature can always catch people off guard. For example, Hurricane Andrew in August 1992 was so frightening that even authoritative meteorological experts like Jim Rusha could not cope with it. The consequences it brings are even more heartbreaking.

Jim Rusha is a meteorologist with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration: "At that time, I was checking satellite cloud images at the hurricane center and issuing local hurricane warnings. My wife and two daughters were still with us at the time. She has lived in her home for 20 years. "This hurricane is not going to hurt us," she said on the phone. We didn't think the wind was very strong. "I said to her, "I'm sorry, honey, you were wrong this time. "Later, when Hurricane Andrew reached the edge of the Bermuda Triangle, it destroyed Jim Rusha's home in Dade County.

Sometimes, Bermuda also becomes very calm.

At that time, Jim Rusha had already He hadn't heard from his family for several hours. He turned the corner and came to where his home was.

The hurricane was so destructive that it became the most studied. One of the weather phenomena. Maybe it is the most reasonable explanation for the tragedy in the Bermuda Triangle. Everything we know about hurricanes may help us uncover the mystery of Bermuda. We can monitor the development trend of hurricanes from space. /p>

Robert Rogers is one of the scientists who fly into the Bermuda Triangle to penetrate deep into the center of hurricanes in pursuit of new knowledge.

Robert Rogers is also a meteorologist with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. : “I study hurricanes, flying into storms to measure relevant data. Using computer technology, I can gain a deeper understanding of hurricanes' origins, causes, paths, factors that change their intensity, and rainfall. First, there must be warm water. In fact, water is the fuel of hurricanes. Hurricanes need water to maintain the energy and provide the power to form hurricanes. In addition, there must be a suitable wind direction. Only in this way can the storm continue. If the wind comes from all directions and at different heights, the storm cannot continue. ”

Today, satellite technology can warn people in the Bermuda area in advance that hurricanes are coming. Satellite technology, coupled with more advanced navigation systems, may be the reason why casualties and disappearances have decreased year by year.

But this explanation is not comprehensive. The hurricane season is only 6 months, from June to November, but many disappearances occur outside these 6 months. So, are there other natural phenomena? What about the mystery? Seaspouts, or tornadoes that form at sea, are just as deadly along the south Florida coast.

This storm over Miami has evolved from a tornado to a seaspout. Wind speeds can reach up to 110 miles per hour. This is a very interesting phenomenon in southern Florida. There are often several waterspouts, one after another, which can last for about 5 to 10 minutes. < /p>

The weather will become bad, and there may be a seaspout. People are still having lunch in the cabin, and suddenly a seaspout strikes, and they don't even know it. And it is elusive, but the power of seaspouts is very weak, and it cannot capsize large ships and cannot shoot down high-altitude aircraft.

What about the phenomena we are more familiar with, such as thunderstorms? Is it related to the mystery of Bermuda?

When the rising warm and humid air meets the cold air, thunderstorms will form. Because there is always rising warm air, areas such as the Bermuda Triangle are excellent places for thunderstorms to form quickly on the sea surface. , unleashing huge destructive force and striking unsuspecting aircraft and ships. Thunderstorms are often accompanied by lightning, which is an ever-present threat in the area.

Dive boat captain Dave Eese. : Close Encounters with Lightning

Dive boat captain Dave Ice has been working at the Stewart Coffe Diving Club in Nassau for 14 years and dives in the Bermuda Triangle almost every day.

He told us about a thrilling trip in Bermuda: “We were caught in a thunderstorm. We were so close that we could see every flash of lightning and hear every crack of thunder. We knew we had to let go of the steering wheel or else we'd get an electric shock. Soon you'll hear the antenna buzzing like a swarm of bumblebees inside. This is due to the accumulation of static electricity. ”

Lightning can cause disorientation and even death. But larger ships and aircraft are often equipped with protection devices that can survive a single lightning strike. Like seaspouts and thunderstorms, lightning Only partial explanations can be provided.

Although these explanations are logical, there is one disappearance that adds to the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle the most.
