Mysterious disappearances in the "Bermuda Triangle", this is the explanation of science

The myths surrounding the Bermuda Triangle have been a source of interest to thousands of conspiracy theorists for years.

For decades, the stretch of the North Atlantic Ocean has sparked fear after dozens of mysterious disappearances have occurred.

More than 50 ships and 20 planes are said to have disappeared in the area, which stretches roughly from the coast of Florida to Bermuda and the Greater Antilles.

Of course, conspiracy theories have focused on the causes of these tragic and inexplicable cases.

However, experts have offered more plausible hypotheses and, a few years ago, Australian scientist Karl Kruszelnicki claimed to have "solved" the mystery once and for all.

He rejected any hint of the supernatural and instead suggested human error, bad weather and high traffic volumes as the answer.

"It's close to the equator, close to America, so there's a lot of traffic," he said.

Indeed, the Bermuda Triangle (also known as the "Devil's Triangle") is one of the busiest shipping lanes in the world, with thousands of ships passing through ports in the US, Europe and the Caribbean.

And while the disappearance of any plane or ship is a tragedy, in fact, "the number of planes that disappear in the Bermuda Triangle is the same as anywhere else in the world in percentage terms," ​​said Dr. Kruszelnicki, citing insurance company Lloyds of London and the US Coast Guard.

Simply put, traveling through this notorious area is no more dangerous than traveling through other crowded areas.

This theory did not seem to excite people, who turned to more interesting theories, such as that strange waves are behind the disappearances.

Scientists explored this hypothesis in the Channel 5 documentary "The Bermuda Triangle Enigma", arguing that conditions in the area are suitable for "massive waves".

"There are storms to the south and to the north that meet," explained oceanographer Simon Boxall of the University of Southampton.

"And if there are more from Florida, it could be a potentially deadly wave formation."

Stray waves of this type can reach a height of about 30 meters, which would be on par with the largest wave ever recorded.
