Due to the stack of events, people give this sea to the "Devil's Triangle", "bad luck sea", "magic sea", "sea ship's graveyard" and other nicknames. The sea has been given the nickname "Devil's Triangle", "Sea of Bad Luck", "Magic Sea", "Graveyard of Ships" and so on. These nicknames in turn accentuate the mysterious and terrifying atmosphere unique to this place.
Nowadays, the Bermuda Triangle has become synonymous with mysterious and incomprehensible disappearances.
How can there be such a magical and unexplained corner of the earth that we are familiar with? How could a series of unthinkable things happen? What exactly is the Bermuda Triangle?
1. Missing airplanes
U.S. Air Force Captain Taylor, is a very experienced pilot. He had been flying airplanes for 2,500 hours, a flying record that not many people can achieve.
On December 5, 1945, Captain Taylor was the leader of the 19th Flying Squadron, which took off from Fort Lauderdale Airport in Florida. He and 14 other pilots flew five Vengeance torpedo bombers on a training mission.
Everything was fine, the weather was good, it was ideal flying weather.
Their mission was to fly a triangular course due east over the Bahamas, then north, then back along the last edge of the triangle.
As the flight team crossed over the Bahamas, the base suddenly received a report from Lt. Taylor and Pilot Bowers that the compass was out of order and they could not figure out their altitude. Piece to that, the signals received by base command got worse and worse, as if all the pilots were panicking. And of course command panicked.
At 4:00 p.m., Command heard Captain Taylor's voluntary, shaky call:
"An anomaly has occurred! We are off course for some reason."
Command said, "Report your position!"
Taylor: "I can't figure out my position, I don't know where I am!"
Command: "Then you are flying west!"
Taylor: "The azimuth meter is malfunctioning, the needle isn't moving. We can't tell which way we're going, all we can see is the ocean."
The base command felt the severity of the problem at the end of the day. Because, the airplane has enough fuel, can be paid for four hours of flight. Besides, the flying skills of Captain Taylor are reassuring. The command immediately ordered another plane with normal instrumentation to replace Taylor.
But ten minutes later, base command received another report:
"Alert! We are now lost again, we can not see the land ...... everything is a mess, even the sea seems to be different from the usual!"
At this point also came the voice of Captain LeTay: "We seem to be over the Gulf of Mexico ......"
The base was surprised, how did they go off course and fly into the Gulf of Mexico? The base was greatly shocked by the fact that all the instruments were out of whack when the five planes, who had no idea where they were located and were still flying blind, contacted each other in a conversation at d pm. They were all reading differently, even the westward slanting sunset service saw, if they had seen the sun they would have corrected their course. Finally, the voice that broke the base's heart came:
"We're finished ...... starting to sink into the water ......"
The radio signals grew fainter and fainter, until there was silence. until there was silence. By this time, the hour hand was pointing at 7:04. Captain Taylor, along with his 14 companions and the five airplanes, had disappeared from the face of the earth.
Command found this incomprehensible and immediately decided to send a plane to look for them.
A few minutes later, a Martin maritime search plane was ordered to take off. The search plane was piloted by a crew of 13.
But the search plane also disappeared. It seems to have gone straight to the mouth of the missing tiger and disappeared without even a whisper.
In just a few hours, six planes and 27 pilots were gone, simply inexplicable. Had they been swallowed by the sky?
The next day, the US authorities paid high attention to the incident and conducted one of the largest search-and-rescue campaigns ever. The U.S. Navy deployed 21 ships, including aircraft carriers, hundreds of speedboats and motorboats, more than 3O0 aircraft, that is to say, the U.S. Navy used all the ships and airplanes that can be used in the vicinity of Florida waters. The search area from Bermuda to the Gulf of Mexico every inch of the sea, the result is nothing.
According to common sense analysis, if the plane crashed into the sea, then at least should also be left on the surface of the floating oil and other traces. However, nothing was left, as if nothing had happened. The first time I saw this, it was a very good thing that I was able to see it," he said.
The officer in charge of the sister-in-law's search and rescue said dejectedly to his boss:
"God knows what happened, we can't even estimate what might have happened!"
When the story was revealed, the Bermuda Sea became famous. As people's attention to this sea, the incredible disappearance of the plane, it seems more and more horrifying -
December 27, 1948 at 22:30, a DC-3 large civilian flight, from San Francisco airport, through the Bermuda sea Overhead, the ground command tower had heard the captain's astonished words:
"What's going on here? What's all the Christmas caroling about?"
No one thought about the implications of that statement.
At 4:30 a.m. on the 28th, the flight had also telegraphed to the airport - "Approaching airport, lights visible, preparing to land." The airport made all preparations to accept the landing.
But the DC-3 flight never landed at the airport. It disappeared before it landed, and of course the crew and all the passengers survived.
A minute ago, there was normal contact with the airport, and the disappearance seemed to have happened in a flash. It was as if a hole had been made in the sky and the plane had fallen into it without a sound.
2. The Graveyard of Navigators
What kind of sea is the Bermuda Triangle? We may be able to get a glimpse of what it was like 300 years ago from the insights of Christopher Columbus, who first sailed across it.
In 1502, Columbus passed through the Bermuda Triangle on his fourth voyage through the Americas.
On this day, Columbus was standing on the bow of his ship and saw a clear sky and calm sea. Suddenly, the wind rose, the sky dark, dozens of meters high waves like a wall to the fleet.
The sailors worked together to try to turn the course, but all the ship's navigation instruments are out of order, the needle on the magnetic compass is not pointing to the due north direction, but pointing to the north-west direction, deviating from 6 degrees. The ship is out of control, let the wind and waves push and beat.
Columbus is lucky, after a few days and nights of curved tendons, the ship did not sink. What is strange to him is that the end of this storm from the sky is actually crunching, the wind and waves said the end of the end, immediately on the wind and waves are calm.
Columbus wrote all this in detail in his diary. In his letter to the King of Spain, he also talked about this unforgettable experience--
At that time, the waves rolled, for eight or nine days, we could not see the sun and stars ...... I've seen all kinds of storms in my life, but never encountered such a long time, so violent storms. I've seen all kinds of storms in my life, but I've never encountered a storm that was so long and so violent.
The problem is that Columbus survived, and his experience is at least one of those explainable encounters. What about those who didn't survive? Of course, it was an inexplicable experience that no one saw--
In August 1840, a French schooner, the Rochereau, was sailing in Bermuda. The ship was under sail, and the sails were full, indicating that she was sailing quietly. What was confusing was that it seemed to be floating in the wind without a purpose. The people wondered and rowed up to it. They found the boat silent. On board the ship to realize that the ship is empty, but the cargo hold loaded with satin and other goods intact, the fruit is still very fresh, but also cast a person touched. However, why the ship's sailors have run out? No one can answer, the only living creature on board, is a half-starved golden bird, but unfortunately it can not speak.
What exactly happened on the ship, put into know, but who is sure that the ship must have happened an incredible thing.
In 1872, another strange thing happened in this part of the sea.
A two-masted ship, the Maria Celeste, was floating 100 nautical miles west of the Azores. When it was discovered, the ship was again empty, and the cabin table was still full of delicious food and tea cups with unfinished coffee and water. The wall clock moved normally, and the sewing-machine countertop held small bottles of oil. All this does not in any way explain why the ship was abandoned by its owner, other than the fact that it was not exposed to wind and waves.
In 1944, the Cuban freighter Rubicon was also abandoned in the same waters. When people boarded the floating ship, there was only one dog lying alone on the deck.
In 1963, the U.S. tanker "Marlin Keith" through this sea, the second day of sailing, the ship's announcer also informed the shore: "normal navigation, position 26 degrees 4 minutes north latitude, longitude 73 degrees west." But that was the last message the Marlin Keith sent to the world, and she has been missing ever since. No one can imagine that such a tanker equipped with modern navigation and communication equipment, but not even a little bit of oil left, missing from the waters.
The American freighter One Eye, a 542-foot-long giant with 309 sailors, disappeared in March 1918 while returning to Norfolk, Virginia, from Brazil with a cargo of manganese ore. The weather was perfect and there was no possibility of wind or waves overturning the ship. There was speculation that the One-Eye had been attacked by a German submarine during the war. However, after the war, people checked the wartime records of the German Navy and found that none of the German submarines had appeared on the route of the One-Eye. Such a huge ship, and radio communication equipment, how it even a "SOS" signal did not send out on the disappearance of it?
In August 1935, the Italian cargo ship "Lex" sailors, saw the U.S. vertical sailing ship "La Dahoma" was gradually swallowed by the waves, they do not hesitate to rescue from the sea, "La Dahoma". "They risked their lives to rescue the drowning sailors of the La Dahomey from the sea. But five days later, the sailors of the "Lex" were surprised to find the "La Dahoma" floating in the sea. This is not an illusion, because the sailors on the "Lex", together with the sailors on the "La Dahoma" who were rescued by them, boarded the "La Dahoma" vertical sailing ship.
A ship has been sunk, how can it be re-swimming the sea? People have no explanation.
3. Who is doing the trick here
Since there are so many strange events here, of course, people have to ask what is the trick here?
In October 1951, a Brazilian warship was sailing in the sea southwest of the Yalor Islands, and then the ship magically disappeared along with its sailors. The following day, the Brazilian side sent airplanes and ships to search for it, and a seaplane searching the surface of the sea found a huge black object under the surface of the sea speeding along at an alarming rate. This indicated that it was by no means an undersea creature, while at the same time the sheer size suggested that it was again not a fish in the water. During the night and early morning of the following day, a strange and extremely bright light was seen in this area of the sea, but no one could say where this strange object and strange light came from.
Those who escaped from the Devil's Triangle, their memories may give us a clue.
American shipwreck rescue company, a captain said, he once returned to Florida from Puerto Rico, on the way to the ship's compass needle suddenly swung violently, although the diesel engine is still running, but no power. Waves from all directions towards the ship, can not see the horizontal line, all sides of the ship is a thick fog. He hurriedly ordered the engineers to go full speed ahead and finally broke out of the fog. Strangely enough the sea beyond this fog was not very rough and there was no fog. The sailors all said that they had never seen such a strange thing in their lives.
In September 1972, the U.S. cargo ship "Nightmare" sailing through the Bermuda Triangle waters, suddenly all the lights on the ship are dimmed, the compass is out of order. Sailors feel things are not good, and hurriedly according to the lights of the land orientation, the ship towards the west. After sailing for a few moments, they realized that the ship was originally heading north, but they could not correct the course no matter what. At that moment, a large black object appeared in the sky, obscuring the stars. A bright light shot into this object. Soon it was gone again and the ship resumed its normal course.
Is there a connection between this black object in the sky and the black object underwater mentioned earlier? Or are they the same object? No one can answer. One can only say: it is intriguing.
Obviously, there is a mysterious and powerful, invisible force.
In February 1977, a private seaplane skimmed the waters of the Bermuda Triangle, and a few friends on board the plane were eating, and suddenly found that the knives and forks on the plate were bent. At that time, the compass needle deflected dozens of degrees, they accelerated to escape from this terrible navigation area. After the return flight they found that the tape recorder tape recorded the strong noise of the sea.
The sea, how can it make a voice?
An old pilot told a strange story. Once, he was doing a night flight in the Bermuda Triangle at an altitude of 7,000 meters. The first time I saw this was when I was a kid, and it was a very good time for me. Suddenly he found the wings on both sides of the light flashing, he thought it was the cabin glass reflections, but the reflections can not be so strong, the strong light stabbed his eyes, and even the instrumentation can not see clearly, and the plane is bright like a transparent glass object. He looked up and thought the sky was so bright that he couldn't even see the stars. He hurriedly turned off the automatic joystick and steered the airplane by hand. After a few minutes, the bright light faded and everything returned to normal.
Where did the bright light in the night sky come from? The old pilot couldn't answer, and I'm sure you can't either.
4. Scientists' Explanations
Scientists all over the world seem to not allow the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle to continue. They used all their known knowledge to explain the strange happenings in the Bermuda Triangle.
In a variety of explanations more representative of the following kinds:
(l) magnetic field said. In the Bermuda Triangle appeared in a variety of strange events, compass failure is the most frequent. This has led people to associate it with geomagnetic anomalies. It has also been noted that wrecks in the waters of the Bermuda Triangle occur mostly at the beginning of the lunar month and in the middle of the month, which is the time when the moon has the strongest tidal effect on the Earth.
The Earth's magnetic field has two poles, the geomagnetic south pole and the geomagnetic north pole. However, their positions are not fixed, but are in constant change. Geomagnetic anomalies can easily cause compass errors and disorient ships and aircraft.
There is also a belief that the seabed of the Bermuda Triangle has a huge magnetic field, which can cause compass and instrument failure.
In 1943, a doctor named attack Sa had in the U.S. Navy with the cooperation of an interesting experiment. They set up two magnetic generators in the Bermuda Triangle and fed them a dozen times the magnetic force to see what would happen. As soon as the test began, something strange happened. Immediately, green smoke poured up around the ship, and both the ship and the people disappeared. When the test was over, everyone on the ship was stimulated in some way; some were treated and returned to normal, while others suffered nervous disorders as a result. Afterwards, Dr. Assault Sa inexplicably committed suicide. Before he died, he said that the experiment appeared to be related to Einstein's theory of relativity. He left no exposition, so that even the experiment itself became a mystery.
(2) Black hole theory. Black hole refers to those late stars in the celestial body of the high magnetic field super-density of the phenomenon of aggregation and absorption. It is invisible, but can swallow all the matter. Many scholars have pointed out that the disappearance of the Bermuda Triangle aircraft and ships do not leave a trace of the event, quite similar to the phenomenon of cosmic black holes, it will be difficult to explain why it disappeared in a flash without a trace.
(3) The infrasound theory. The sound is generated by the oscillation of the object. People can hear the sound of the reason why there is a low muddy, sharp and brittle points, which is due to the object of different oscillation frequency. Frequency lower than 20 times / second sound is the human ear can not hear the infrasound. Although the sound is inaudible, but has a strong destructive power.
The complexity of the terrain in Bermuda's waters exacerbates the production of infrasound and its intensity. Undersea volcanic eruptions off the coast of Puerto Rico, and fluctuations and variations in waves and sea temperatures all contribute to the production of infrasound.
(4) Water bridge theory. It is believed that the seafloor of the Bermuda Triangle has submerged currents that are generally different from the tidal surge flow direction of the sea surface. Because, some people in the southeastern Pacific Ocean, off the coast of St. Tadu Island, found in Bermuda missing ship wreckage. Of course this submerged current was the only one that could have pushed the wreckage of the ship to St. Tudor Island; and when the two currents clashed, that is when the shipwreck occurred. And after the shipwreck, those shipwrecks were again dragged far away by that submerged current, which is why the wrecked ship could not be found at the scene of the wreck.
(5) Clear sky turbulence theory. Clear sky turbulence is an extremely special kind of wind. This wind is generated in the high altitude, when the wind speed reaches a certain strength, it will produce the phenomenon of the angle of the wind direction change. This sudden change in wind speed and direction is often accompanied by an infrasound, which is also known as an "air pocket". This is also known as an "air pocket", and when an airplane is hit by it, it trembles violently. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a new one, and you'll be able to see it.
Unfortunately, these are only hypotheses, and each hypothesis can only explain a certain phenomenon, and can not completely solve the mystery of the Hundred Curtains. Not to mention, in addition to the unexplained disappearance of airplanes and ships, there are some incredibly strange things going on at the bottom of the Bermuda sea and at the surface!
5, never-ending weirdness
In 1963, the U.S. Navy found an unidentified object diving at a very high speed under the surface of the sea southeast of Puerto Rico. The U.S. Navy sent a destroyer and a submarine in pursuit. They tracked it for four days and still let the object get away. This underwater unidentified object, not only travels fast, but also has a strange diving function, can dive to a depth of 8,000 meters below the deep sea, so that the sonar can not be searched. People only see it has a propeller with a tail, Li can not peep its true face.
After the news was revealed, some people estimated that it might be a Soviet submarine. However, the U.S. said that with modern processing and manufacturing technology, not to mention the former Soviet Union. Even the United States is unable to manufacture such an object that can travel at high speeds and dive deep into the sea.
What is it? Readers will have to imagine for themselves, because the US Department of the Navy can't explain it either.
In 1979. A joint expedition of American and French scientists accidentally discovered an underwater pyramid on the seabed in this area. Of course, this underwater pyramid is not a product of nature, but an artificial work. The leader of the team, the United States Miami Museum Honorary Curator Charles Berlitz heard of the news, immediately sent people with an underwater camera to dive again to take pictures. From the photos we can see the tall and majestic underwater Dajinyu Tower. The tower has two huge black holes, seawater high speed through these two holes, resulting in the surface of the sea is rough, water fog in the air.
This underwater pyramid is said to be more majestic than the Great Pyramid of Khufu in Egypt. Its discovery has led to speculation that this area of the shipwreck is caused by it. At the same time, it has brought historians a new problem - that is, the long-standing debate on the existence of the Atlantean empire, and re-emerged.
The bottom of the sea is busy enough. But what about the sky? In 1981, a group of travelers were visiting the Bahamas. Suddenly, there was the sound of a motor in the sky, and people looked up to see a Mustang, a fighter jet used by the United States during the Second World War, whizzing by.
The tourists at first thought that this was a specific arrangement of the tour company's unannounced program, and happily drummed their fists. However, the fighter jets opened fire on the tourists indiscriminately. The tourists ran away in fear and the fighter jets instantly disappeared into the clouds.
Fortunately, someone took a picture of the plane. The tour company sued the USAF in court. The US Air Force was shocked to see the photo and said that the plane was theirs, but it had disappeared over the Bermuda Triangle 49 years earlier.
Gosh, how did a plane that disappeared 40 years ago come back? Please don't be surprised just yet. If you read the following report, I don't know how you will feel.
According to the report: an old U.S. bomber, appeared on top of a crater on the moon. The photographs sent back from space by the Soviet space probe not only showed that the plane was intact, but also clearly presented its number. The U.S. Air Force cross-checked and realized it was another plane that had disappeared in the Bermuda Triangle 40 years earlier.
Who got it to the Moon? And what did they want to do with it?
Who put it on the Moon and what did they want to do with it?
