Journal set 1: Bermuda Triangle

    Bermuda Triangle is a mystery which still remains unsolved. Although there are wise and reasonable theories about what is happening in the triangle, nothing is the exact answer for the events in the Bermuda triangle. A zillion of ships, aircrafts, and more importantly a lot of people disappeared in the triangle since the time immemorial. This situation not only scares people but also leads them to be curious about the triangle. That why everybody tries to find an answer for the vanishings. Public usually consider the possibility of human mistakes and navigation problems. However, the fact that there is a huge loss of people weakens this possibility. The pilots and captains who got lost in the triangle are usually experienced and successful. I think although these two qualities of theirs does not prove they made mistake, the number of the mistakes cannot be that many. People also consider the possibility of extra-terrestrial creatures vanish all the ships and planes. However, I think it is only a way to give an answer to cut corner. Even though I respect to the believes of other people’s, I still think that aliens are nothing but a fairytale. In my opinion, the most reasonable explanation is the methan gas theory. This theory supports that the great amount of methan gas under the sea gets released and reduces water density and ships cannot float on the water. However, even this theory does not explain the loss of the aircrafts. In conclusion, Bermuda Triangle is still is a secret which attracts the attention.

     This is a video I found about the Bermuda Triangle. The reason why I chose this video is that it gives us important knowledge about the triangle. It mentions the points I share with you, too. Firstly, it tells us about an important accident occurring in the triangle. It is the loss of the Flight 19. This event happens on a day when the weather is perfect. Also, the crew consists of well-experienced and well-prepared men. Nevertheless, when they got close to the triangle, they lost the communication with the center. After this event, another plane was sent to find Flight 19 but it disappeared, too. I think this is not a coincidence. Secondly, video explains the methane gas theory in a detailed way. It supports the methane gas reducing water density can cause the sinkings. It also gives other people’s opinion about the methane gas theory. It also mentions that this theory is perfect for the explanation of losses. However, before it explains this theory, it also gives information about the weather conditions around the triangle. It is an area which is open to storms and seismic activity. You will see why I support this theory when you watch the video. Thirdly, the video does not the skip the theory of strange creatures. However, as you can see in the video, it has not got any support and it is only based on the believes. It also has a sarcastic tone. In conclusion, I believe this video will provide you a great amount of knowledge. Enjoy the video.
