The Truth Behind The Bermuda

1. The Truth Behind The Bermuda Joseph Cornielle 606

2. What is the Bermuda Triangle The Bermuda Triangle is an imaginary triangle that is in the western part of the north Atlantic ocean. The reason the Bermuda triangle is appealing is because the triangle has sunken many ships and planes and it is unknown why. so will scientist ever discover what's wrong with the Bermuda triangle.

3. Magnetic Fields •  Magnetic fields askew • We've all heard myths about compasses in the Bermuda Triangle spinning wildly out of control. Legend has held that the Bermuda Triangle is one of only two places on the planet where a compass points true north, as opposed to the magnetic north. • Now, navigators know that a compass must be calibrated to compensate for the deviation depending on the location on the globe. While the Bermuda Triangle was once, during the 19th century, a place where a compass pointed true north with no variation, the Earth's magnetic field is constantly changing, and along with it, compass variations. • These days, the Bermuda Triangle does not sit in any kind of strange magnetic area, and pilots and sailors know well to adjust their compasses to compensate for the variation, called declination, between magnetic north and true north. There are plenty of charts to help them out with that.

5. Time vortex, aka "electronic fog" • Here's the story: In 1970, Floridian pilot Bruce Gernon and his father were en route from Andros Island to Bimini Island in the Bahamas when they came across a strange cloud that they say grew exponentially before morphing into a tunnel. • Now, would you fly straight into a spinning, tunnel-shaped cloud? Gernon did. • He flew into that rotating vortex, he says, only to emerge in a thick "electronic fog" with a white haze surrounding the plane. His compass spun wildly and electrical sparks surrounded him. • When the fog finally broke up, Gernon says he found himself miles away from where he expected to be - and much farther than he could have traveled in that time, leading him to believe he had passed through a time travel tunnel. • So, was the "fog" a natural occurrence? Was it due to UFOs, caused by interference from extraterrestrial technology? • Well, anything is possible.

6. A downed 11,000-year-old comet • So, way, way, way back, 11,000 years ago, a comet may or may not have crashed to Earth and landed deep on the ocean floor, right beneath where the Bermuda Triangle lies today. • Some theorists speculate that this comet might have strange electromagnetic properties that could disrupt compasses and other navigational tools and even interfere with an aircraft engine. So, has anyone found such a comet? • No … or, well, not YET, but the ocean in the area can be tens of thousands of feet deep in some trenches, so proof may never be found. With no proof, faith in an ancient alien comet is really all that's left.
