Abstract

The Bermuda Triangle: full of sunken ships, mysterious plane

disappearances, and unknown deaths. There seems to be a magnetic pull
within the area of Puerto Rico, Florida, and Bermuda drastically attracting
disaster, mystery, and fear. Unaware if the Devil truly has a grip on this
certain piece of land full of recurring disasters, it seems to cause much
speculation and controversy amongst people. Is the Bermuda Triangle truly
just a myth or a figment of humans imagination?
Over the years there have been many incidents of disastrous plane
disappearances, ships sinking, and even unusual sightings. Nobody is really
sure what is the cause of these terrifying occurrences irrationally pushing
people to create their own side to these stories. Fear of the unknown tends
to frighten many hastily shoving people to find comfort in their own
conclusions and theories. In reality, the only thing people should fear is fear
itself. With this being said, people are becoming more and more afraid of
traveling through the Bermuda Triangle because anything can happen.
Although there seems to be so many claims of inscrutable seeings of
phenomenal occasions, there is not sufficient evidence to defend their
allegations.
Myth or fact, the Bermuda Triangle can only be one, you decide...
Mystery, fear, and death all circle the Bermuda Triangle. So much
unawareness about the Bermuda Triangles deadly causes makes people
believe it is nothing more but counterfeit. In the future, there will be a valid
fact either informing the world of a supernatural portal transporting people
to a third dimension, who knows? Now here is the real question, would you
travel through the Bermuda Triangle?

Historical Context
The Bermuda Triangle has brought up interesting controversy between
individuals. Although there should be no controversy because the Bermuda
Triangle is in fact a myth. For example many people have endlessly talked
about and this myth to a point where people are now afraid of this location
on the earth. They have decide to believe these myths because it is the
easier to believe something rather than going upon it and saying no. For
example In the article, Bermuda Triangle: Behind the Intrigue by Mayell
Hillary, Hillary correctly argues that although there are many questionable
myths about this flight it does not necessarily mean that they are completely
true. She argues that due to the incident, flight 29 which occurred on
December 5, 1945, where five planes mysteriously disappeared causing
Bermuda Triangle rising suspicions and creating a panic and questioning all
around the world.
After doing my research I firmly believe that this was the start of the
Bermuda Triangle. Flight 29 began it all! This intensely made the myth rise
and made it more believable with other factors as well such as the following.
People still began to keep this myth going such as Mr. Vincent H. Gaddis. He
coined the term Bermuda Triangle: began writing articles saying over 1000
lives had been claimed by the area, he also agreed that it was a pattern of
strange events.(Gaddis). There was an article describing how this myth
became extremely popular but it was because of people like Vincent H.
Gaddis and professors who would teach this phenomenon worldwide, which
is why this myth has been kept the mystery alive for so long.
 Another interesting point I came across while doing my research was
In the article How the Bermuda Triangle Works by Lee Ann Obringer. Lee
Ann Obringer thoroughly describes and explains that there is more to the
Bermuda Triangle such as facts and explanations that you are not told of.
This convinced me because how would tell you what is really going on?
Publishers make a gigantic profit off of this article, why would they throw
that away and tell you it has all been made up? Obringer arguably shows us
that all the incidents and disappearances that have occurred and how most
of them did not occur in the Triangle exactly but rather a few 100 miles away
which does not necessarily count as a disappearance in the Bermuda
Triangle. As well as when he correctly argues and displays evidence of
where, how, and why the disappearance happened. Such as showing us the
problems a ship or airplane had even before entering the Triangular zone. I
believe he also makes a strong and solid claim because as he states Here is
a sampling of the some of the most notable incidents. As you'll see, some of
these have reasonable explanations(Obringer) meaning there is a
reasonable explanations for what has happened making it much easier to
believe and persuade the reader that the incidents occurring had a reason
behind them and not just a paranormal myth to it.
Scientist have come to believe that the most possible theory have
something to do with the climate change such as tsunamis, hurricanes or
waterspouts. There are other less likely theories but it depends on whether a
person believes or not. Such as Atlantis being sunken at the bottom of the
triangle etc. As the article What is the Bermuda Triangle by National Ocean
Service states, the Bermuda Triangle is not a majestic place other than just
a body of water. The ocean in generally a mysterious place but we can not
fear it. Us humans have yet to discover the ocean. We fear the unknown
which is why we fear this location. After all the research promptly
accumulated, including the one presented in this research project, it is up to
the reader to conclude whether the Bermuda Triangle is or is not a mythical
location.
 Findings
Throughout this research it has been concluded that the bermuda
triangle is in fact a myth. It has been seen through many other peoples
perspectives as shown in Figure 1 below:

Not only this, but in other articles that show how the Bermuda Triangle
is a conspiracy. Like in the article Deterritorializing the Bermuda Triangle:
Popular Geography and the Myths of Globalization by Nellsen, Brett, Mr.
Nellsen asserts that despite its reputation for the abnormal disappearances,
the western atlantic (Bermuda Triangle) has never actually been territorially
well defined. Mr. Nellsen argues that spatial formations of late capitalism are
defined less by territorially than by flow. The purpose for this article was to
inform the audience by showing them fact and in order to believe that the
Bermuda Triangle incidents have only happened due to its location. The
audience would be researchers who believe in or are researching the
Bermuda Triangle trying to get another perspective and information on the
disappearances.
 As well as in the following Journal of Teacher Education, Teacher
Education's Bermuda Triangle: Dichotomy, Mythology, and Amnesia by
Cochran-Smith, Marilyn asserts that The Bermuda Triangle is indeed nothing
but a myth. Cochran-Smith is very clear when describing her thoughts and
research because she informed us that the Bermuda Triangle has been
carefully studied and scientists have found evidence and the causes behind
every disappearance. She firmly believes that the bermuda triangle is
nothing but a legend that teachers have believed in and promoted as well as
passed on from one level of education to another. The authors purpose was
to provide a full understanding on how two educational levels clash. Like the
dichotomy most plaguing teacher education as of now is one between
"college grads," on one hand, and "ed school grads," on the other. In order
to get her point across she made a statement that said people entering
teaching have either learned subject matter knowledge or they have been
prepared to teach in programs but did not have the experience of learning it.
The audience in this article would be teachers who promote the bermuda
triangle due to the fact of their belief and stubbornness to agree to any other
idea.

In the article Bermuda Triangle: Where Facts Disappear by by

Benjamin Radford, Radford asserts that there is no mystery about strange
disappearances in the Bermuda Triangle but rather found out that the story
was basically created by mistakes and in some cases outright fabrication.
Radford supports his claim by showing us all the other myths about the
bermuda triangle and how they are all invalid because they do not exactly
have evidence to back every myth up. He provides us with enough details to
come to a conclusion in order to persuade us (the audience) that there is no
such thing as the bermuda triangle. In this case the audience could be
anybody who believes in the bermuda triangle and does not see the facts
behind it. He is trying to persuade the audience into accepting that the
bermuda triangle has just been a myth.

Not to mention in the Discovery News producer and English Major,

Richard Farrells web article, How Do You Make a Whole Ship Disappear?,
explains how some theories government officials assume to have occurred
do not add up. Farrell explains how these ignorant theories arent concrete
enough to be believed. He published this web article explaining his belief and
unanswered questions due to the missing planes and ships within this
treacherous triangle. The Bermuda Triangle is an unusual topic but Farrell
covers it extremely well.

As well as when dedicated researcher Daniel Uy, the author of The

Bermuda Triangle: Mystery or Not, believes that the Bermuda Triangle
mystery came to be due to human errors and natural reasons.The Bermuda
Triangle has never really been proven or backed up with facts or statistics. If
disappearances there are so high and current, there should be evidence
backing up any theories. Overall, Uy came to the conclusion that the
Bermuda Triangle really is not a mystery. What do you believe?

Not only in those articles, but as well as in the article The Bermuda
Triangle: Whatever became of the myth by Giles Milton, Milton claims that
the bermuda triangle is just a tale of fantasy that someone made up to make
money. He supports his claim by showing us how he came to his conclusion
about the triangle and letting us know how much money was earned when
people would believe these myths. He also made sure to include the myths
and how they were not credible because there was no hard facts to back up
each myth in order to persuade the audience. In this case I believe the
audience would be people who believe and are into the bermuda triangle.
People who believe everything that is said and have no idea of how the
bermuda triangle actually came about. In addition with the following article,
a group of students were surveyed with one question in mind, everything
that goes through the Bermuda Triangle disappears, their answers are
shown in figure 2:

Coupled with the last articles, in this web article Bermuda Triangle,
published by the award winning global media company, A&E Television
Networks, informs the unaware public of the truth behind the unknown
legends and myths that are believed due to the mysterious disappearance
that occur in the Bermuda Triangle. The publishers inform our society of the
infamous theories that led to these horrendous mysteries that are now
hidden within the Bermuda Triangle. This article cites many facts and much
history behind this devilish triangle. This triangle is said to go way back and
this article cites some history that may have influenced these legends.
 As equally important as in the last articles this one known as the
Bermuda Triangle: Behind the Intrigue by Mayell Hillary published on
December 15, 2003. Hillary claims that due to Flight 19 the legend of the
Bermuda Triangle arose. Hillary correctly argues that although there are
many questionable myths about this flight it does not necessarily mean that
they are completely true. In order to get her statement across she mentions
other myths and reasons why people would believe them but she also sticks
to her claim by stating the facts that happened during that flight and how
things may have occurred. I suppose the audience in this article would be
the people who confuse and mistaken the legend of the bermuda triangle
with the ideal facts. She was making a clarification.

By the same token, In the following article Bermuda Triangle Mystery

by Raj Bhattacharya, Raj asserts that the so called mythical Bermuda
Triangle is indeed nothing but a myth that writers in the 1950 took
advantage of because it got people's attention. He does a great job in
backing up his assertion by implementing a lot of hard evidence examples
and other articles that support his claim. In order to convince the audience
of his claim he had to make his article much more credible by contradicting
what the myths talk about. He is directing this article to people who are
looking into the disappearances of ships, planes etc.

Freelancer, Daniel Pendicks web article, The Devils Triangle?, leads

the reader to infer that there is more to the disappearances that occurred in
between Florida, Puerto Rico, and Bermuda. Pendick claims that the
mysterious disappearance were not due to machine malfunctions, therefore
pushing the reader into believing that there is more to these disappearances
than the government claims. He published this web article to state his belief
that something strange is occurring in the Bermuda Triangle that the public
is unaware of. Pendick intends to open peoples mind to the unknown, after
all everybody is entitled to their opinions and beliefs.

After conducting thorough research, Emily Upton, the author of The

Truth About the Bermuda Triangle, believes that the Bermuda Triangle is just
an area of bad luck. The Bermuda Triangle is full of disasters,
disappearances, and deaths, but what really causes them? In this article,
Upton explains that the Bermuda Triangle got its bad reputation due to
Christopher Columbuss unusual compass readings. Due to this, the
commencement of theories for the Bermuda Triangle began. She also
informs us that the Bermuda Triangle and Gulf Stream are known for crazy
storms. Anything can happen, you choose what you want to believe.

Additionally, in the article Bermuda (or "Devil's") Triangle by Robert

Todd, Carroll, Carroll asserts that there is no mystery behind the bermuda
triangle. He makes sure to support his claim by explaining why all the other
myths are unreasonable and what actually happened instead of this false
idea of a mysterious paranormal incident. He also tries to sell the reader but
in order to do this he must have had to have accomplished facts that lured
the reader into believing his claim. In this case I believe the audience would
be believers of the the bermuda triangle and his main goal is to encourage
and persuade the reader into looking more into the hard facts behind every
incident instead of feeding off of this make believe myth.

Not to mention in the article What is the Bermuda Triangle by National

Ocean Service (January 4 of 2010), they assert that the Bermuda Triangle is
not a majestic place. They make sure to support their claim by showing us
the details and factors of how natural sources and causes have been the
reason behind these happenings. The author is trying to inform us about
the fear people have and in order to control the their fear they tell us that
the ocean in general is a mysterious place but we can not fear it. They are
trying to let us know, the people who believe in the Bermuda Triangle that it
is not real and it is just a myth that has been getting bigger and bigger
passed on from generation to generation.

Along the lines of the Bermuda Triangle, The Boating Safety and Safe
Boating Blog explains how scientific theories are prevailing over the Bermuda
Triangle mystery. Like there are irrational theories for the Bermuda Triangle,
there are also reasonable scientific theories. An example of a scientific
theory that is prevailing and seems correct would be ocean flatulence. Ocean
flatulence theory states that there is methane gas trapped deep within the
ocean causing ships to lose their buoyancy and sink. Now what would you
believe, ocean flatulence or aliens?

As a matter of fact, in this article, Bermuda Triangle by A+E networks

published in (2010), A+E assert that there is no theory to solves the
mystery that we question the most, the Bermuda Triangle. A+E claim that
although there may be certain ideas and assumptions going about, there is
not hard evidence that what happened on flight 19 was not supernatural and
reasonable. He supports his claim by stating that although storms, reefs
and the Gulf Stream can cause navigational challenges there, maritime
insurance leader Lloyds of London does not recognize the Bermuda Triangle
as an especially hazardous place meaning there has to be more than
mother nature working here. Although there are assumptions of many
legends and theories, in order to sway the audience to the supernatural side
he convinces us that this geographical area is not dangerous and there is
more to it than nature. The audience in this article would be the people who
believe in theory and reason because he is persuading them to believe that
supernatural causes may have occurred and it is possible that the bermuda
triangle is more than just a body of water.

As well as in the following article The Truth About the Bermuda

Triangle by Emily Upton, Upton claims that it is nothing more but a magnetic
effect that happens in a certain point in the ocean. Upton makes sure to
back up her assertion by providing and showing us evidence and examples
of how the Bermuda Triangle came to be. In order to get her point across
she quotes other sources such as the Coast Guard and how they revisited
the Bermuda Triangle to see what was actually happening. Emily Upton is
trying to reach out to the people who believe in the myth and folktales of the
Bermuda Triangle and trying to show them that it really is nothing but a
myth.

Together with the rest of the important articles, in the Article of

Science & Education published on October 1994, Volume 3, Issue 4, Mr.
Martin respectfully asserts that the study of pseudoscience and the
paranormal is an important but neglected aspect of science education.
Michael Martin claims that in order to advance not only for science but for
ourselves we must not stop believing in a paranormal world or science. He
claims this science may be a false science but it is up to the students
themselves not only to be scientist but to be thinking critically as well. This
is how he believes a student shall learn. The purpose of this article is to
inform scientific readers indulging in paranormal scientific research that in
order to get the best research done, the correct thing to do is to look at all
the perspectives of a paranormal topic such as the Bermuda Triangle, as well
as being critical and reasonable thinkers along the process. The audience in
this article would be the students who are aiming to be the best scientist
they can be when doing research on a controversial topic.

Like in the article How the Bermuda Triangle Works by Lee Ann
Obringer published on August 2, 2006, Obringer explains that there is more
to the Bermuda Triangle such as facts and explanations that you are not told
of. Obringer supports his claim by firmly stating all the incidents and
disappearances that have occurred and how most of them did not occur in
the Triangle exactly but rather a few 100 miles away which does not
necessarily count as a disappearance in the Triangle. In order to makes his
statement credible, he displays evidence of where, how, and why the
disappearance happened. Such as showing us the problems a ship or
airplane might of had even before entering the Triangular zone. This article
was written to inform readers who may be gullibly persuaded into believing
what they hear without knowing the hard facts and the hows and why
disappearances occurred. What he was trying to achieve was to clarify the
myths and showing us the reasoning behind it. With that being said I leave
you with one question, will you ever travel across the Bermuda Triangle?
Figure 3 shows a number of students who were surveyed from their beliefs
and this is what they said:

Epilogue
 Unusual sightings, disappearances, and even deaths have occurred
within the Bermuda Triangle. Many unexplained incidents have led the topic
of the Bermuda Triangle to be controversial and full of fear. Fear causes
people to deny what can be right in front of them. Are you willing to deny
the truth even if it is right in front of you?
The Bermuda Triangle can be full of danger yet it is the most highly
traveled through place. While conducting this research assignment my
opinion on the Bermuda Triangle evolved into something I had not known
until I was done with my research. I started this project believing the
Bermuda Triangle was merely the truth but due to my research I can clearly
see that is the case. Many accidents have occurred in this area, yes that is
true but all incidents that have occurred have a reason to them. People seem
to really care about the Bermuda Triangle because they believe they might
be the next person who disappears while traveling through there. I suggest
more research by people traveling through that area should be done so there
would be less controversy and less fear of the unknown. Knowledge on the
topic can really change a persons opinion and beliefs. For example, I truly
thought the Bermuda Triangle was nothing but nonsense but after gathering
my information I realize theres more to it. The incidents, the sights, the
disappearances, and the deaths all have drastically created the Devils
Triangle for a reason. That reason being because it is a location on the earth
where the gravitational pull is a bit different. This does not mean the Devil
has anything to do with it. All these incidents are no coincidence and neither
is the Bermuda Triangle. After all the Bermuda Triangle is nothing but nature
and a simple location on the globe.
In conclusion, after extensive research on the Bermuda Triangle I have
come to the conclusion that it indeed nothing but a paranormal
phenomenon. Although, we have yet to discover what truly is behind the
Bermuda Triangle, I believe that the Bermuda Triangle is not real. Some
people decide to let reality and other things to hide your fear of the
unknown. Well you are in luck, here we are clarifying the great vivid
controversy of the Bermuda Triangle. After all this that has been said I have
one question for you, Is the Bermuda Triangle real or a Fantasy?
