This one is the earliest documented disappearance in connection of the Bermuda Triangle in the year 1918. The ship was built for the United States Navy during the World War I. It became a great loss for the United States of America since it is known as the largest loss of life in Naval History of U.S. Lawrence Kusche investigated on this and claimed that some of the remains of the ship are found 300 feet underwater but comprehensive investigation in the later years found nothing at the sight.

The ship had its last voyage in the year 1963 when the ship disappeared. There is no exact reason why the ship mysteriously disappeared since the ship was in good condition– although it was considered as a floating garbage can, the engine was fine– when it departed from the port. There were 39 crewmen on board but none of them survived. On the site, only a couple of the debris and lifeboat was seen.

USS Scorpion (SSN -589)

The USS Scorpion was a nuclear submarine of the United States that sank in the year 1986. Although, the submarine was found 300m below the sea, all people on board were never found. This mystery was connected with the Bermuda Triangle because the place where it sank was located within the boundary of the Devil’s sea. There is a torpedo theory that was made to explain the sinking of the submarine but was not officially endorsed because of the lack of evidences.

Actually, the first one to discover the unusual phenomena was Christopher Colombus when he had his sea exploration. He stated that he had seen a strange dance lights within the horizon of the Bermuda Triangle. There are many investigations that tried to explain the phenomena but all of them just failed to fully explain the mysterious disappearances. You, do you believe the mystery of “The Bermuda Triangle”?
