The Mysterious Bermuda Triangle, Mysterious Devil Triangle

This mysterious place situated in the western region of  North Atlantic Ocean. It is also known as the Devil’s Triangle. A lot of aircrafts and ships have been lost and their disappearance became a mystery. This place is recognized by a lot of countries and people fear going anywhere near it. But the US Navy believes that the triangle of this kind does not even exist and they have not recognized this spot on the Geographic names. It is also not recognized by the ‘World Wide Fund For Nature ‘ who made a list of the most dangerous places in water for shipping in the year 2013. Even the insurance companies do not consider the existence of this place and do not the charge premiums for this area’s shipping. The  disappearance of ships and aircrafts have led people to believe in some paranormal activities or existence of extra – terrestrial beings. Different writers have given different set of vertices of this triangle lying in  different directions. Some say that it has a vertex in Miami, in Florida Peninsula etc. But the effective area  of the triangle is estimated to be somewhere from 1,300,000square kilometers to 3,900,000 kilometers. Many accidents have been reported but the exact details of the accident are never known because no one survived. Every writer has a different version of the story and different locations and type. But this place is not defined  in any  map of the government agencies of United States of America as their Board does not believe in the existence of any such triangle. Many ships crossing  travel daily from this place in America and Europe and also the Caribbean  Islands. A lot of travel between Florida  and the islands is through  cruise ships crossing this path. And not just the ships, even a lot of air travel is done through this route. Aircrafts  both commercial and private. Travel over the Bermuda Triangle toward Florida or Caribbean and South America.
The history behind this place is tracked back to 1950 on 15th September. On this day Edward Van Winkle Jones published his article in the ‘ Miami Herald’ about and alleged the unusual disappearances in the area of Bermuda Triangle. Again after two years there was another mention of this place in the print media. After that there was no end to the discussion and books started publishing and flooding  the market then the discussion moved from the print media to the video world and documentaries and films were made. The most famous work on this place was done by Lawrence  David Kushe, who was a librarian and wrote a book entitled: ‘ The Bermuda Triangle Mystery Solved’. He argued that the claims of the other writers are unnecessary exaggerated, and cannot be verified. His work exposed a number of inconsistencies and inaccuracies. To the untraceable leftovers, he said that those untraceable leftover also exist in the pacif ocean and every other ocean. There is nothing very special about  the place.
