To give you a rough mental image, it is the triangle lying between Bermuda, Miami, and Puerto Rico.
There is a lot of theories around this Devil's triangle since the missing of USS Cyclops on a calm day in 1918 (a giant ship with 309 crew) and the five bombers of Flight 19 (5-12-1945). Since 1964, many ships have disappeared capturing the attention of everyone.
What is the major cause of such extreme weathers and mysteries around this place?
There are many theories,
One is the monstrous forceful waves that can come in quickly in this area, the waves are so huge, that they nothing stands against it, everything sinks.
Some attribute this to the powerful whirlpools beneath that suck down giant ships.
Explorers have found an 8 KM deep trench, wherein the tectonic plates can shift causing giant waves of even a tsunami.
Is it just because of weather or is it because some people say it is the work of aliens?
It is most likely due to geography rather than aliens. Recent evidence has revealed that Bermuda is actually sitting on top of a giant mountain beneath the sea. It is 4000 meters high and isolated in the Atlantic ocean.
New research has also shown that breakers, long limestone columns grow up to 12 meters from the seabed, these are harder than rock and can damage ships but difficult to spot.
At times winds can blow up to 170mph and the triangle is in the center of extreme weather activity. This coupled with strong magnetic fields, can throw navigation instruments haywire hence leading to confusion as to actually where the ships or aircrafts are.
