Where is Bermuda Triangle?

By the simplest of all definitions, Bermuda Triangle is located off the South-Eastern coast of the
United States and in the Atlantic Ocean. The three corners of the triangle are: Miami (in Florida);
San Juan (in Puerto Rico); and Bermuda (a north-Atlantic island). The American author Vincent
Gaddis was the first to define this boundary in 1964 in an issue of the magazine named Argosy and
called the area 'The Deadly Bermuda Triangle'.

However over the years, several other authors kept extending the area beyond its original
boundary because they seemed to identify mysterious incidents in nearby areas as well. Visit
Triangle Location & Map to get details about the area, how it is actually laid out on the Atlantic,
understand if it actually has a map to identify the location (i.e. latitude / longitude), and whether
you will ever know when you are entering the dreaded area as you take a cruise or flight.

About Bermuda Triangle

Bermuda Triangle is a strange triangular area on the Atlantic ocean where many ships sailing
through it or planes flying over it have apparently disappeared without a trace. In few of such
cases where wrecks could be found, the crew had vanished. And such incidents have been
happening since centuries. More than 1,000 ships and planes have disappeared in the triangle
area over the past five centuries.

So getting excited already? Well, the facts however are quite far from what is generally known or
believed to be true. Many stories and myths have been created by writers through sheer
imagination which they used rampantly to draw publicity to their books. In many cases, the facts
got blurred. Many theories, controversies and counter arguments have come up over the years
challenging the mysteries that created fear psychosis among people since ages.

So what is the fact? Is it at all true? Partially true? Or all nonsense? Let's dig deeper to understand
that while keeping in mind that far too many incidents have taken place in this area for it to be
ignored.

How did it all start?

It all started by authors who were novel writers, and the mystery was initially perpetuated by
them. But don't jump into a conclusion yet. While we all know that novel writers are good in wild
imaginations, but many of these writers were actually popular and well respected authors of their
times.

The abnormalities on the sea was first noted in 1950 by Edward Jones in the daily newspaper
Miami Herald published in Florida. However the mystery started catching wide-scale attention in
1952 when George Sand wrote in Fate magazine about incidents like Flight-19, a training flight of
five torpedo bomber planes, all of which went missing during a routine training session in 1945
and never returned.

Subsequently several authors wrote about various other mysterious incidents in the triangle area.
While some of such reports were dubious or without much substance, several incidents had
actually occurred and remained unexplained. The words around the mystery started spreading
fast, and soon Bermuda Triangle was a reality, at least in the minds of millions all over the world.

Disappearances

Below are some amazing stories of planes and ships that disappeared or met with ill fate while
crossing the triangle area. As you visit the links, you will also see my findings behind such great
mysteries of all times. In most cases I have discussed and explained the possible causes, in some
cases I have also given excerpts from official reports that were produced by US Navy, US Air Force
or US Coast Guards after completing the search operations. And in several cases, I have given
updates on further findings.
