The Bermuda Triangle

1. The Bermuda Triangle By Hunter

2. Why does it happen ? • We all know the Bermuda Triangle is popular because of its many disappearances . But what happens in this ghostly sea? We’re about to try to find out.

3. The Disappearances • There have been over 200 to 1,000 disappearances in the last 500 years due to the Bermuda triangle. http://www.ask.com/wiki/Bermuda_Triangle

4. Some reasons • Some reasons for the disappearances are just people getting lost. Others theory's are of ghosts, cursed waters, extra terrestrials, and strong magnetic pulls.

5. During the past century more than 50 ships and 20 aircraft sailed into oblivion in the area known as the Devil's Triangle, Be bermuda Triangle, Hoodoo Sea, or a host of other names. http://www.history.navy.mil/faqs/faq8-3.htmnames.

6. The Titanic case • We all know about the Titanic . but did you know that the survivors were all found in the Bermuda triangle even when the ship crashed nowhere near.

7. Here are some pictures from crashes

10. Extraterrestrials in the Bermuda? ever since there has bee written or recorded stories of the Bermuda there has been secretors ,aliens , or ghost.

11. Some claim to have seen spacecrafts of some sort like on the boat u.s.s. john f. kennedy.A well documented account of a UFO hovering over the USS John F. Kennedy while in the infamous Bermuda Triangle was given to me personally by a crew member who was a communications expert, and an eyewitness to strange events in 1971. Our witness had served a year on the ship, and when the incident occurred, the vessel was returning to Norfolk, Virginia, after a two week readiness exercise in the Caribbean.

12. Our witness was on duty in the communications center, monitoring eight separate teletype machines. These teletypes printed out "fleet broadcasts." The array of eight was comprised of four on top, which each logged different channels, and four on the bottom, which unlike the top row, monitored different frequencies. If any messages were received, they were to be sent to the Facilities Control center, which would in turn monitor the messages. On the opposite side of the room was the Naval Communications Operations Network, which was a ship to shore circuit

13. Beside it was the Task Group Circuit for ship to ship messaging. • At about 20:30 hours, the ship had completed an eighteen hour "Flight Ops." A routine message had just been logged, and turning back to the teletypes, our witness noticed that all of the information coming in was garbage. He checked the alternate machines, and they too were sending garbage.

14. Walking to the intercom, he informed the Facilities Control center about the problem. A reply told him that all of the communication hardware was malfunctioning. • In the corner of the room was the pneumatic tube system, which had an intercom which communicated with the bridge. All of those on duty in the communications room heard someone in a loud voice proclaim: "There is something hovering over the ship!" A moment or two later, another voice shouted: "It's the end of the world."

15. The six men in the communications room immediately went to take a look at what was happening. They ran the approximately 50 feet to the hatch that opens to the catwalk on the edge of the flight deck. This happened at the time of "no horizon," which occurs in the morning and evening, because of the sun rising or setting, and during this time it is difficult, if not impossible, to tell where the sea and sky meet.

16. As they looked up, they were shocked to see a large, glowing sphere hovering above the ship. Yet, without a horizon for reference, is was difficult to estimate its size. But best guesses from the witnesses put it at about 200-300 feet in diameter! There was no sound coming from the UFO. The light of the other-worldy craft seemed diffused, and was a yellow to orange color. After gazing at the UFO for about 20 seconds, battle station alerts went off.

17. Their officer met them on their way back to the communication room, urging them to rush back to work. After about 20 minutes of sitting with nothing to do, the communications came back online. There were no messages outgoing about the giant UFO at any time. • The next few hours were uneventful, except for a good friend of our witness who worked in the combat information center, who told him that during the time the UFO hovered over the ship, all of the radar screens glowed. Another shipmate of his who worked on the navigation bridge informed him that all of the compasses had malfunctioned during the event.

18. He would also be told that two F-4 Phantoms would not start while the UFO was near the ship. Scuttlebutt on the ship passed rumors that not too long after the event, several men in trench coats had landed on the ship, and questioned those who had seen the phenomena.

19. A few days afterward, as the ship was nearing its destination of Norfolk, a Captain came on the closed circuit television station, and reminded the crew that anything that happens on the ship, stays on the ship, although the UFO was not mentioned specifically. Other than that, and gossip among crew members, this was the only reference to the unusual occurrence on the USS John F. Kennedy in the Bermuda Triangle.

20. Our witness is still haunted by what he saw and heard that day, and is actively pursuing details about this event, and other UFO sightings.

21. Another sighting was on another ship clamming that when they were working they saw UFO. The crew reported when they tried to pickup there weapons to fire on the object …. They couldn’t pick them up . They clamed it was like they were magnetically stuck to the deck. When it was gone they could pick them up again.

22. Scores of ships and planes are said to have vanished without trace over the decades in a vast triangular area of ocean with imaginary points in Bermuda, Florida and Puerto Rico.

23. But journalist Tom Mangold's new examination for the BBC provides plausible explanations for the disappearance of two British commercial planes in the area, with the loss of 51 passengers and crew. • One plane probably suffered from catastrophic technical failure as a result of poor design, while the other is likely to have run out of fuel.

24. Sixty years ago, commercial flights from London to Bermuda were new and perilous. It would require a refuelling stop on the Azores before the 2,000-mile flight to Bermuda, which at that time was the longest non-stop commercial overseas flight in the world. • The planes would have been operating at the limit of their range. Today planes arriving at the tiny Atlantic island have sufficient reserve fuel to divert to the US East Coast 700 miles away, in case of emergency

25. And the planes of the post-war era were far less reliable than today's airliners. • British South American Airways (BSAA), which operated the route, had a grim safety record. In three years it had had 11 serious accidents and lost five planes with 73 passengers and 22 crew members killed

26. epilog • There are still many strange things that happen and we are trying to solve in the Bermuda and we’ll investigate later but for now … that’s another story.
