Thread: The Bermuda Triangle.....Solved or Unsolved?

I love these types of conversations, I'm into the weird stuff, but I just do not see anything worth talking about with the Bermuda Triangle. I disagree that it's a confirmed fact that there is unusual magnetism in the Triangle. Some pilots claim that they have experienced that, but the vast majority do not claim that. If anything, the most compelling argument I've heard about disapperances at sea in general have to do with rising methane pockets, and those don't seem to be limited to any one area.

There's nothing to solve. On any given day, thousands of boats and airplanes sail through / fly over those waters without incident. In fact, if you look at the records of "Bermuda Triangle Incidents," hardly any of them have taken place in the past 25 years.

There is no "grid." There are no "concentrations." If there were, it would constantly fuck up every compass on every boat and airplane operating in the region.

Sure. But it's not a "grid," and it doesn't have significant peaks and troughs. That's one of the perks of living on a sphere.

There's only one place that I know of that has unusual magnetic activity right now, and that's in the South Atlantic, and that has more to do with changes in the magnetosphere and sunspot activity.

Again - it's nonsense. This would require a a magnetic field powerful enough to change the course of a incoming meteorite traveling at 25,000mph. Oh, and don't forget that the meteorite is thousands of miles away. If such a magnetic field existed anywhere in the earth, it would be impossible to pick up any piece of ferrous material.

Meteors are slightly more likely to impact the earth near the equator than near the poles because most asteroids are more-or-less orbiting on the same plane as our solar system, which is the same plane as the earth's spin. There is no single place on earth that "attracts" meteorites with any frequency. Note that all of those that strike the ocean (2/3 of the earth's surface), disappearing without leaving a crater, don't get entered into the history books.

Djinn are there any mysteries or esoteric knowledge that you do believe in? Or do you always attempt to debunk such?

I enjoy a challenge. When presented with a mystery, I approach it from an empirical perspective. It's theoretically possible that such an approach could lead to amazing new knowledge. However thus far, it has always resulted in "debunking."

I've never understood why others prefer to place high stock in "bunk."
