Hello and welcome back to the Most Amazing Channel on the internet.
I am your host Rebecca Felgate and today I am talking the Top 10 Scary Bermuda Triangle
Stories.
Ahhh, the Bermuda Triangle!
Such a classic!
I am surprised we haven’t done this video before!
So, I am sure you have all heard of the Bermuda Triangle… it is 500 thousand square miles
of ocean between Miami, Puerto Rico and Bermuda and over the years has been a hot spot for
strange occurrences and the disappearances of nearly 1000 people.
What is going on?
Well….
stay tuned for ten scary stories from the area…
Before we get into that, though, I want to ask you what you think the mystery is?
Is it magic, aliens or just bad weather…let me know in the comments section down below.

In 1492, Christopher Columbus was on board The Santa Maria with his crew on his first
voyage to the New World.
He sailed through the area we now know as The Bermuda Triangle and reported seeing fire
on the horizon despite their being no discernable land.
He wrote in his diary describing the flame as a small wax candle that rose and lifted
up.
On investigation, they couldn’t get to the bottom of what it was.
In modern times people attribute the light to Columbus witnessing a meteor crash.
Others are not so convinced.
9 - Bruce Gernon and time warp A lot of the Bermuda Triangle Encounters happened
a long time ago, or there simply aren’t any key eye witnesses to discuss their experiences.
Bruce Gernon is still alive and kicking and he has a very strange experience flying over
the Bermuda Triangle on his way to palm beach in the 1970s.
At the time he was an experienced personal pilot and had grown up flying with his dad.
Shortly after take off from Andros in the Bahamas, Gernon came across a storm so he
tried to fly around it.
He found a tunnel in the clouds and flew through it… here is what he had to say about that.
CLIP 1.
Right okay.
In the tunnel he said he had a feeling as if he was slipping through space.
He said that when he got out of the cloud tunnel after 20 seconds the Miami air controllers
had been worried as his plane disappeared off their radars.
He describes an electromagnetic yellowish grey fog surrounding the plane and messing
with his instruments.
When he emerged from the fog he thought he was over Bimini but air control tell him he
is flying directly over Miami beach.
What should have taken him around 80 minutes of flight time had only taken 34 minutes.
He was baffled.
He seemed to have travelled 100 miles in 3 minutes, so 1918 miles per hour when his plane
was only capable of travelling at 200 miles per hour.
Famous pilot Charles Limburgh also reported something very similar.
Weird.
8 - The Ellen Austin Encounter In 1880, The Ellen Austin came across an unidentified
Schooner ship drifting in the Bermuda Triangle’s Saragasso Sea sailing a strange erratic path.
Captain Baker of The Ellen Austin tailed the ship for two days just to check it was not
a trap.
After 48 The Ellen Austin came close to the boat and received no return signal.
Captain Baker decided to send four of his men to board the ship to investigate.
Weapons drawn, they got no response.
On investigation they saw no signs of life but also no signs of struggle.
The only thing that seemed awry was that the entire crew were missing, and curiously, as
was the ships log book.
Finding a perfect stash of mahogany on board, the Captain formed a Prize crew of his most
trusted men and ordered they sailed the ship to New York.
Days later…the Ellen Austin came across the vessel again…sending signal, once again
it was met with no response and again seemed to be drifting aimlessly.
Captain Baker sent more men over, who found their prize crew totally absent, again without
signs of affray.
Again, the log book was missing.
Captain Baker’s crew were freaked out, but he demanded a small crew of men once again
try and steer the boat and its bounty to New York.
It took hours of convincing as many thought the ship was cursed, however he did manage
to assemble a crew.
That was the last anybody ever saw of the schooner or the crew ever again.
They disappeared.
7 - The Missing USS Cyclops After departing Barbados on the 4th March
1918 the USS Cyclops went missing without a trace with a crew of 309 people.
The ship was carrying a fill load of Manganese Ore and was never seen again, leaving absolutely
no trace.
The incident was the single greatest loss of life in the History of the US Navy while
not engaged in combat.
Was the ship too heavy?
Or did the Bermuda Triangle pull it down to its murky depths.
6 - Carroll A Deering Good old Carrol was the name of a five masted
Schooner.
She had been afloat for three yearswhen she was found run aground and abandoned on the
31st of January 1921….
Which is exactly 98 years ago on the day I am scripting this video….
How spooky!
The wreck was found in Cape Hatteras in North Carolina, but she was supposed to be sailing
from Puerto Rico to Rio…right through the heart of the Bermuda Triangle.
No trace of the crew were ever found.
Some people speculated Mutiny, others say the ship may have been attacked by pirates,
citing the prohibition era of the incident….sadly, we will never know.
5 - The 2017 Turkish Airline Incident In February 2017, Turkish Airlines Flight
TK183 encountered some strange problems as it flew over the Bermuda Triangle.
It seems the Airbus A330-200 was forced to change its direction from Havana, Cuba to
Washington Dulles airport.
The pilot and crew reported mechanical and electrical problems.
Electrical…after what we have already heard, that is pretty interesting.
4 - The Lost City of Atlantis The Legend of the Lost City of Atlantis claims
that the city radiated a mysterious energy that caused navigational instruments to break
down…which kind of sounds like what we know from the area.
The Legend of Atlantis also talks about interesting rock formations on the ocean bed, rather like
those located on the Ocean bed in the Bahamas, called Bimini Road.
Some mystics believe that Atlantis lies at the bottom of the murky depths of the water
and the energy of the lost souls, the ghosts of the drowned citizens, are what are causing
the disappearances and luring people to their watery deaths, leaving no trace to the outside
world.
I am not sold on this one.
3 - The Alien Wreckage
Discovery Channel host Darrel Miklos was filming a show while diving in the Caribbean using
maps made by former NASA Astronaut Gordon Cooper in search of old shipwrecks and magnetic
anomalies . The pair were investigating what they thought might be an ancient shipwreck
but it turns out it was something else entirely….
Miklos described it as a formation unlike anything he had ever seen… being far too
big for a shipwreck he also said, I quote, it was something that was completely different
from anything that I've seen made by nature….
Miklos also found other strange objects and formations around the big puzzling object,
all of which are covered in thick coral thought to date back hundreds upon hundreds of years.
When Miklos studied Cooper’s work, he found that the Astronaut believed in Aliens.
This lead to the Discovery Channel host speculating that the mysterious wreckage could be a crashed
alien space ship… because what else.
2 - UFO over the Triangle Can we explain the Bermuda Triangle with aliens?
It seems that there was a terifying alien encounter onboard the USS John F Kennedy in
1970 but crew on the ship were told by the captain to keep schtum.
It seems that the ship was set to return to Virginia after two weeks in the Caribbean
and was in the middle of the ocean when the crew on deck looked up to see a large glowing
sphere around 200-300 feet in diameter.
One eyewitness said it was yellow and orange in colour and all of the radar screens on
board lit up.
The Naval Officers tried to deploy two F-4 Phantoms to intercept the UFO but they would
not start.
Eventually the UFO moved on and days later, as the ship was making its approach back to
the USA , the captain warned crew against speaking of the incident
It isn’t the only time it has happened either, it seems Google maps shows a UFO just outside
the triangle.
1 - The Disappearance of Flight 19 This is the most famous legend surrounding
the Bermuda Triangle and one of the hardest to explain away.
It all went down on December 5th 1945 when five TBM Avenger bombers, grouped as flight
19, were flying over the Bermuda triangle.
The flight never returned to Fort Lauderdale as planned, and the worst was feared, with
the general theory being that something had gone wrong and the planes ran out of fuel.
As there were 14 men lost, the Navy sent out a rescue mission to search for survivors,
or at least to confirm the wreck.
13 crew were set of on the Martin PBM Mariner Flying boat – bit that flight never made
it back either.
Neither wrecks have ever been found, nor have any traces of the missing pilots.
The story made international news and helped perpetuated the legend of the Bermuda Triangle.
SO that was the Top 10 Scary Bermuda Triangle Stories!
Which of these do you think is the scariest?
Do you believe in the legends of the Bermuda Triangle…what do you think is causing the
strange occurences?
COMMENTS from Scary Minions Theories … you said :
Angel Alice Said: the minions wouldnt just survive the apocolypse..

Oooh you are right! Andrew Scolari said:
Here's a wild Disney theory: The world Dumbo and the world of Thomas the Tank Engine are
one and same.
Both Thomas and Casey Jr. are apomorphic steam engines with faces and are sentient.
So the Island of Sodor also exists in world where a baby elephant can fly like a bird?.
