Mysteries of Bermuda Triangle
The Bermuda
Triangle, is a roughly and unspecified defined region in
the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean, where a number of ships and aircraft are
said to have disappeared under mysterious circumstances. It is completely a
mystery.
There are many
perceptions about the area of Bermuda Triangle. Some writers gave different boundaries and vertices to
the triangle, with the total area varying from 1,300,000 to 3,900,000 km2.
The Bermuda Triangle is
a mythical section of the Atlantic Ocean roughly bounded by Miami, Bermuda and
Puerto Rico where dozens of ships and airplanes have disappeared. Unexplained
circumstances surround some of these accidents, including one in which the
pilots of a squadron of U.S. Navy bombers became disoriented while flying over
the area; the planes were never found. Other boats and planes have seemingly
vanished from the area in good weather without even radioing distress messages.
But although myriad fanciful theories have been proposed regarding the Bermuda
Triangle, none of them prove that mysterious disappearances occur more
frequently there than in other well-traveled sections of the ocean. In fact,
people navigate the area every day without incident.
What happened to flight 19?
This is one of the most famous
disappearances in the triangle and a prime example of the goings on.
On December 5, 1945, five US Navy
'Avenger bombers' mysteriously vanished whilst running a routine training
mission. Lieutenant Charles Taylor was in command of this squadron - he kept in
constant contact via radio updating upon the mission exercises until, without
warning mid-sentence, nothing was heard.
The air force quickly dispatched a
rescue plane to the area which also never made it back from the Bermuda
Triangle.
The US Navy reported the investigation
as “cause unknown”.
What
happened to the Ellen Austin?
Back in 1881 - The Ellen Austin was
sailing through the triangle on its way to New York when she came upon another
ship that was sailing without a single crew member aboard. In an effort to
transport both ships back to their destination the Ellen Austin offloaded a
portion of its own crew onto the other ship.
The Ellen Austin lost sight of the other
ship over the horizon temporarily over the course of the journey back but all
was well when they eventually caught up with the ship again that had
unexpectedly dropped anchor ahead of them. When the Ellen Austen lashed up again
with the ship to find out what happened, they found to their horror that their
own crew had vanished and the ship was once again crewless.
The Ellen Austin decided to leave a few
more sailors on the ship to await a salvage ship but the salvage ship never
found her. It had again disappeared without a trace along with its crew.
This is widely regarded as the 'real'
ghost ship of the sea. A demonic trap set to capture the souls of sailors.
This was just a snippet of reported
cases! Who knows what else has occurred here that we do not know about.
