The mystery of the Bermuda Triangle or commonly referred to as the devil triangle began to be solved. These facts shed a variety of beliefs about the existence of aliens and other strange phenomena that exist in the area between Bermuda, Miami and Puerto Rico.

According to research that was published in the American Journal of Physics, disappearance of ships and aircraft passing through the Bermuda trianglewere caused by the natural gas that burst from the water. The gas is made from methane, a type of gas with the usual ingredients used for cooking

I read the source. It doesn't explain why there's a frozen methane gas under the seabed. Moreover it also doesn't explain how methane gas can disrupt the buoyancy of the ship. This topic demands for more credible source.

oh.. i think.. you can search the charasteristic oh methane, so you can analyze them..

such a thread already exist at phd section.

anyway, to say all the accidents are due to that and thus say mystery solved is not very logical.
accidents are usually multi-factorial.

may be you're right..but i think..just God that know this mystery

The source seemed abit unconvincing.... even the English used seemed broken
Quoted from the link: "Bubbles are also able to achieve air and mercilessly devour plane. So the power of the machine will stop and the plane will fall instantly." I think I sort of understand what the sentence means but is it even possible?

The article smells like the methane gas coming out of the rear of bulls. How does methane gas 'drop' plane from the sky?

You dont belong here

How it can be be approved by mods.....must be some sort of corruption....hmmm....................................

Some problems with this explanation

1) it's not that rare for natural gas to be released from the bottom of the ocean. Why is it that only at the Bermuda Triangle do this cause ships and planes to disappear?

Even the article itself says methane is also released in the North Sea (that's between the UK and Norway), and the Sea of Japan. Why don't planes and ships disappear there as well?

2) if a large bubble of methane breaks the surface of the sea, continues to rise, and envelopes the area around the plane, it might kill the engine due to lack of oxygen. But planes can glide even when all engines are stopped. Pilots are even train to ditch the plane in water. And they float. The planes, not the pilots. Although some of them may float too.

3) if all the engines stop and cannot be restarted, we would expect the pilots to radio for help. Is the Bermuda Triangle associated with an extraordinarily large number of reports of engine stalls.

4) i cannot see how it affects the buoyancy of ships

5) if a plane, flying at say 200km/h, at an altitude of 2000m hit one of this newly risen methane bubbles, and it's engines all stop, it should continue to glide until it gradually loses all altitude. In one minute, the plane should have travelled a distanced of 3km. How big are these bubbles anyway. Couldn't the pilot have restarted the engine as soon as the plane exits the bubble.

topics here doesnt have to be approved. RWI also changed, no more topic moderation .

How the fellar come up with such an explanation is a mystery!

It still doesn't explain the lost of radio communication and the lost of navigation.

i've seen a story from national geographic if not mistaken..

A plane fly from destination A to B takes around 1 hour for example, a guy flying alone using a small plane takes him only 30 minutes to reach to destination B by claiming he "coincidently" flying pass the air of bermuda.. while in the air there were lightnings, heavy clouds, no communications etc...
