The Bermuda Triangle has always been a strange and mysterious place in modern World History. This is located in the southern Atlantic Ocean. It is roughly the shape of a triangle. Many people claim that Bermuda Triangle sucks planes and boats into its dark and murky waters. But no one knows exactly what happened to those lost planes and boats in the region. News papers, TV channels and internet websites have attributed these disappearances to the paranormal or activity by extraterrestrial beings. That’s why it is also known as the Devil’s Triangle. Hundreds of ships and planes have been reported missing in the area and more than 1,000 lives have been lost.
Some people think that the Bermuda Triangle is in a place where there is high magnetic force so when planes or whatever goes over it, they get sucked down and all of the computers, magnetic compass and other machines stop working. Some say paranormal or human error or even large amounts of methane in the water that cause ships to sink. See the video of group of aircraft that were the first of thousands to go missing inside the mysterious Bermuda Triangle in 1945, in the BBC show.
