The Bermuda Triangle has been debated over and hypothesized about since the time of Christopher Columbus. Even in the 1400's, strange lights were reported in the area that we now call the Bermuda Triangle. Skeptics scoff at the existence of this phenomenal area citing reasons such as the fact that it is in an area known for hurricanes and other weather patterns for the disappearences dating back centuries. On the opposite end of the spectrum, there are many people who would like to believe it is an alien influence; a "collection" area for extra-terrestrial life to catch their "guinea pigs" and take them off for further experimentation.
A more logical approach is taken by scientists, using the natural features of the triangle to find possible solutions to put the mystery to rest.
Exploring one of many theories about the Bermuda Triangle area, this video shows an experiment involving gas bubbles used to sink a boat. Methane gas bubbles are released from the ocean bed, rising to the surface and collecting in pockets where the water is calm. As the video shows, an unlucky vessel sailing into one of these bubble areas could soon find itself at the bottom of the ocean.
Could this be an explanation for missing ships in the Bermuda Triangle? Absolutely. Could these methane bubbles pull a plane from the sky? Or did someone forget to push the button down in the hatch?
