The Mystery Of Bermuda Triangle

Situated in Atlantic Ocean, Bermuda triangle is a Very large mythical triangle which is bounded by The Bermuda Island, Puerto Rico and Miami. this area is a very mysterious place as here many ships and aircraft disappeared under mysterious circumstances.This place covers about 500,000 sq. miles of the ocean from the southern tip of Florida. Christopher Columbus was the first to pass through this area. In his report he stated that he saw a great ball of fire, probably a meteor, fell in sea one night and a strange light started flashing at a distance a few week later. The Bermuda Triangle is one of the few places on earth where true north lines up with the magnetic north thus showing deflection in the position of any thing inside it. Due to this deflection many ships and airplanes are lost in this triangle and still not found. Many people believes that there is a worm hole or a black hole which sends these ships and airplanes in any other world . While some thinks that in this triangle there is a time hole which sends these airplanes and ships in other time. And some believes that there is a monster over there which is the cause of disappearance of these ships and airplanes. Some believes that there is Aliens who takes these ships and aircraft with them.

2015 - On October 1, 2015, the cargo ship SS El Foro became another tragic victim of Bermuda Triangle, the worst in over 30 years. The 790-ft container ship departed Jacksonville (Florida) bound for Peurto Rico with 33 crew members on board, carrying large number of containers, trailers and vehicles. A tropical storm hundreds of miles away, developed into fierce hurricane, dashed down towards El Faro, and started circling around the ship. Soon all communications from the ship went silent. And quite unbelievably and having created havoc on the sea, the hurricane went back out almost the same way it came from. After extensive search for weeks, the ship could be finally located sitting upright in one piece at a depth of about 15,000ft in the Atlantic, but there was no trace of any crew members.
