These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated: 1 00:00:02,417 --> 00:00:03,851 An area in the North Atlantic 2 00:00:03,875 --> 00:00:06,583 where ships vanish into thin air. 3 00:00:07,500 --> 00:00:09,417 A mountain range in the Nevada desert 4 00:00:09,542 --> 00:00:12,958 in which planes enter but never return. 5 00:00:13,042 --> 00:00:16,750 And a notorious region of the Alaskan wilderness 6 00:00:16,875 --> 00:00:20,625 that may contain a portal to another world. 7 00:00:22,333 --> 00:00:25,333 We've all heard of the infamous Bermuda Triangle. 8 00:00:25,458 --> 00:00:28,250 But the truth is that there are numerous places 9 00:00:28,375 --> 00:00:30,708 all over the world where ships, planes, 10 00:00:30,833 --> 00:00:33,208 and people enter, and then... 11 00:00:34,208 --> 00:00:35,792 just disappear. 12 00:00:35,917 --> 00:00:37,333 But why? 13 00:00:37,500 --> 00:00:40,875 Do these locations defy the laws of physics? 14 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,083 Do they possess evil energy? 15 00:00:44,208 --> 00:00:49,042 Or is it possible that there are some places on Earth 16 00:00:49,167 --> 00:00:52,167 that we are simply not meant to go? 17 00:00:52,250 --> 00:00:54,833 Well, that is what we'll try and find out. 18 00:01:09,833 --> 00:01:12,333 In the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean 19 00:01:12,500 --> 00:01:15,042 lies a region where numerous ships and airplanes 20 00:01:15,208 --> 00:01:18,167 have inexplicably disappeared. 21 00:01:19,375 --> 00:01:21,167 Although this notorious area cannot be found 22 00:01:21,333 --> 00:01:23,500 on any official map, 23 00:01:23,625 --> 00:01:25,875 it has come to be known all over the world 24 00:01:26,042 --> 00:01:28,833 as the Bermuda Triangle. 25 00:01:30,333 --> 00:01:32,000 The Bermuda Triangle's approximately 26 00:01:32,167 --> 00:01:34,375 500,000 square miles of water 27 00:01:34,500 --> 00:01:37,250 between Bermuda, Miami, and San Juan, Puerto Rico. 28 00:01:38,833 --> 00:01:41,792 In the area, planes will crash, 29 00:01:41,875 --> 00:01:43,833 ships will go missing. 30 00:01:43,958 --> 00:01:45,750 It's just absolute bedlam. 31 00:01:47,250 --> 00:01:50,208 The Bermuda Triangle is seen as a mysterious place 32 00:01:50,333 --> 00:01:53,000 just because it's so big and vast, 33 00:01:53,125 --> 00:01:55,292 and lots of interesting things happen there. 34 00:01:56,542 --> 00:01:59,542 It is very strange that you have many ships lost there, 35 00:01:59,667 --> 00:02:04,500 and airplanes just went missing with no explanation for it. 36 00:02:04,667 --> 00:02:06,667 Is that a coincidence, or is there something 37 00:02:06,792 --> 00:02:08,333 nefarious at work? 38 00:02:09,708 --> 00:02:12,292 One of the noteworthy incidents that took place 39 00:02:12,375 --> 00:02:14,167 in the Bermuda Triangle is the disappearance 40 00:02:14,292 --> 00:02:16,042 of the USS Cyclops. 41 00:02:16,167 --> 00:02:21,000 In March of 1917, the massive cargo vessel, 42 00:02:21,083 --> 00:02:23,417 which had a crew of 306 seamen, 43 00:02:23,542 --> 00:02:26,417 was navigating through the Triangle 44 00:02:26,542 --> 00:02:29,792 when it mysteriously went missing. 45 00:02:31,167 --> 00:02:34,917 No wreckage or bodies were ever found, 46 00:02:35,042 --> 00:02:37,167 and over the years, there have been hundreds 47 00:02:37,250 --> 00:02:40,167 of other seemingly bizarre vanishings 48 00:02:40,292 --> 00:02:44,625 in this area that have baffled experts. 49 00:02:46,667 --> 00:02:48,958 The Bermuda Triangle is one of the great mysteries 50 00:02:49,083 --> 00:02:50,667 in modern history. 51 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,833 Now, of course, hundreds of theories 52 00:02:53,958 --> 00:02:55,333 have been proposed. 53 00:02:55,458 --> 00:02:57,750 The first logical theory is the weather. 54 00:02:59,167 --> 00:03:00,917 Maybe there was a sudden hurricane 55 00:03:01,042 --> 00:03:02,667 that came out of nowhere. 56 00:03:03,917 --> 00:03:05,792 Perhaps these jets and these ships 57 00:03:05,917 --> 00:03:09,583 lost their way, and perhaps that's the reason 58 00:03:09,708 --> 00:03:11,083 why all hands were lost. 59 00:03:11,208 --> 00:03:12,708 That's a possibility. 60 00:03:12,875 --> 00:03:14,518 But when there are things 61 00:03:14,542 --> 00:03:17,333 that are difficult to solve, 62 00:03:17,458 --> 00:03:19,333 at that point people say, "Aha! 63 00:03:19,500 --> 00:03:22,458 "There must be something there beyond science 64 00:03:22,542 --> 00:03:24,417 that's making this happen." 65 00:03:26,167 --> 00:03:27,750 Is it possible that science 66 00:03:27,875 --> 00:03:30,292 cannot explain some of the disappearances 67 00:03:30,375 --> 00:03:33,167 that haven taken place within the Bermuda Triangle? 68 00:03:34,417 --> 00:03:37,208 There are those who believe that the answer is yes. 69 00:03:37,375 --> 00:03:39,000 And as evidence, they point to perhaps 70 00:03:39,083 --> 00:03:42,625 the most infamous mass disappearance 71 00:03:42,750 --> 00:03:44,708 that has taken place there to date. 72 00:03:53,208 --> 00:03:55,500 Five Navy torpedo bombers, 73 00:03:55,625 --> 00:03:57,833 collectively known as Flight 19, 74 00:03:57,958 --> 00:04:01,000 take off for what is supposed to be a routine training mission 75 00:04:01,167 --> 00:04:03,333 over the Atlantic Ocean. 76 00:04:04,750 --> 00:04:08,417 They took off due east from Fort Lauderdale 77 00:04:08,542 --> 00:04:10,833 into the Bermuda Triangle. 78 00:04:12,708 --> 00:04:16,667 After they reached their first stop on the run, 79 00:04:16,792 --> 00:04:17,833 they turned north. 80 00:04:19,333 --> 00:04:21,833 And that's when things started to get crazy. 81 00:04:23,167 --> 00:04:26,167 Their compasses started acting strange, 82 00:04:26,292 --> 00:04:29,333 and the crew started getting really confused 83 00:04:29,458 --> 00:04:31,167 about what was going on. 84 00:04:31,250 --> 00:04:32,625 One of the pilots actually thought 85 00:04:32,750 --> 00:04:34,625 that they may have been over the Florida Keys, 86 00:04:34,708 --> 00:04:37,750 which was nowhere near where they were supposed to be. 87 00:04:39,208 --> 00:04:41,333 For over four hours, ground control 88 00:04:41,417 --> 00:04:43,583 stayed in close radio contact with the pilots 89 00:04:43,708 --> 00:04:46,958 as they tried to find their bearings. 90 00:04:47,083 --> 00:04:50,333 Flight 19 was led by Commander Charles Taylor, 91 00:04:50,500 --> 00:04:54,542 and the problem was that Taylor didn't know where he was. 92 00:04:54,667 --> 00:04:56,667 And not only was his compass malfunctioning, 93 00:04:56,792 --> 00:04:58,167 it was getting dark. 94 00:04:58,250 --> 00:05:00,875 And so you can sort of look at Flight 19 95 00:05:01,042 --> 00:05:04,583 as sort of the perfect storm of bad things happening. 96 00:05:05,833 --> 00:05:08,875 At about 6:30 p.m., the planes 97 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,917 ominously dropped off radar. 98 00:05:12,042 --> 00:05:16,625 The Navy immediately launched a search and rescue operation, 99 00:05:16,750 --> 00:05:19,917 but curiously, no wreckage was ever found. 100 00:05:20,875 --> 00:05:26,542 All five planes vanished without a trace. 101 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,500 The pilots were never heard from again. 102 00:05:32,583 --> 00:05:35,250 Nothing has ever been found that'd been lost. 103 00:05:35,375 --> 00:05:37,208 Almost equally bizarre 104 00:05:37,375 --> 00:05:40,000 was that one of the search and rescue planes 105 00:05:40,167 --> 00:05:41,792 went missing as well. 106 00:05:42,917 --> 00:05:48,292 About two hours after takeoff, a Mariner floating plane 107 00:05:48,375 --> 00:05:50,917 lost contact with the base. 108 00:05:52,417 --> 00:05:54,097 Another one of the search and rescue planes 109 00:05:54,208 --> 00:05:56,000 came to take a look at the area 110 00:05:56,083 --> 00:05:57,958 and found nothing. 111 00:05:58,083 --> 00:06:01,792 This search and rescue plane was completely missing. 112 00:06:03,708 --> 00:06:07,208 All told, 27 airmen disappeared 113 00:06:07,375 --> 00:06:09,333 in the Flight 19 incident. 114 00:06:09,417 --> 00:06:12,292 But how is it possible that so many Navy pilots 115 00:06:12,375 --> 00:06:14,542 experienced malfunctions with their compasses 116 00:06:14,708 --> 00:06:16,333 that caused them to become lost 117 00:06:16,458 --> 00:06:18,083 and ultimately crash?

319 00:16:45,917 --> 00:16:49,167 I mean, there is no obvious answer. 320 00:16:50,875 --> 00:16:53,833 But we have to raise the question 321 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,833 of whether the wreckage was not there 322 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,708 during the intervening period, 323 00:17:00,833 --> 00:17:02,917 and that Steve Fossett 324 00:17:03,042 --> 00:17:07,250 encountered one of these mysterious anomalies 325 00:17:07,375 --> 00:17:09,917 that we know to be associated 326 00:17:10,042 --> 00:17:14,000 with the Bermuda and Nevada Triangle regions. 327 00:17:14,083 --> 00:17:16,667 Steve Fossett's plane could have actually gone 328 00:17:16,792 --> 00:17:18,750 into another dimension for a year 329 00:17:18,875 --> 00:17:23,750 and then be ejected out of it back into our own reality. 330 00:17:25,292 --> 00:17:27,333 When you look at the Steve Fossett case 331 00:17:27,500 --> 00:17:30,375 and you understand that normal search and rescue 332 00:17:30,500 --> 00:17:33,167 is gonna find this pilot and the plane, 333 00:17:33,250 --> 00:17:35,167 and somehow or another, 334 00:17:35,292 --> 00:17:37,167 it didn't happen for over a year, 335 00:17:37,250 --> 00:17:39,125 you have to ask yourself, 336 00:17:39,208 --> 00:17:42,417 was it there or was it not? 337 00:17:44,250 --> 00:17:47,583 Do mysterious anomalies within the Nevada Triangle 338 00:17:47,708 --> 00:17:50,167 cause planes to disappear? 339 00:17:50,292 --> 00:17:53,500 Perhaps. But many researchers believe 340 00:17:53,625 --> 00:17:55,958 there is a much more powerful triangle 341 00:17:56,083 --> 00:17:59,417 located in the American Midwest. 342 00:17:59,542 --> 00:18:02,125 It's an area of Lake Michigan where thousands of ships 343 00:18:02,250 --> 00:18:05,792 have gone missing and have never been found. 344 00:18:13,958 --> 00:18:17,000 Steven Kubacki, a 23-year-old student 345 00:18:17,083 --> 00:18:18,667 at nearby Hope College, 346 00:18:18,792 --> 00:18:21,125 sets out for a day of cross-country skiing 347 00:18:21,208 --> 00:18:23,042 along the shore of Lake Michigan. 348 00:18:24,042 --> 00:18:26,500 But by nightfall it becomes clear 349 00:18:26,667 --> 00:18:30,208 that Steven isn't going to return. 350 00:18:31,458 --> 00:18:33,875 Steven Kubacki told his friends where he was going 351 00:18:34,042 --> 00:18:36,167 and that he'd be back later that night. 352 00:18:36,333 --> 00:18:39,208 When he didn't return, his friends called for help. 353 00:18:40,500 --> 00:18:43,458 Search and rescue responded, and Michigan State Police 354 00:18:43,583 --> 00:18:48,250 found his skis and a backpack on the beach of Lake Michigan. 355 00:18:48,375 --> 00:18:50,417 And what happened is, is that the search and rescue 356 00:18:50,542 --> 00:18:55,708 individuals found tracks going from the beach and the backpack 357 00:18:55,833 --> 00:18:59,000 out onto the ice and ending. 358 00:18:59,083 --> 00:19:01,083 It was a one-way track. 359 00:19:02,875 --> 00:19:05,000 They searched for over a week. 360 00:19:05,125 --> 00:19:07,042 They found no other evidence. 361 00:19:07,167 --> 00:19:09,000 Everybody thinks Kubacki's dead. 362 00:19:09,167 --> 00:19:11,625 Essentially, the case is closed. 363 00:19:13,250 --> 00:19:15,268 The authorities concluded that Steven Kubacki 364 00:19:15,292 --> 00:19:17,875 had fallen in the lake and drowned. 365 00:19:19,625 --> 00:19:24,292 That is, until he mysteriously reappeared over a year later, 366 00:19:24,375 --> 00:19:28,125 more than 600 miles away from where he was last seen. 367 00:19:29,750 --> 00:19:32,292 14 months later, Steven wakes up 368 00:19:32,375 --> 00:19:37,625 in Massachusetts approximately 20 miles from his dad's house. 369 00:19:37,708 --> 00:19:39,083 He makes his way there, 370 00:19:39,208 --> 00:19:41,708 and his parents are just floored. 371 00:19:41,833 --> 00:19:43,542 They thought Steven was dead. 372 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,333 He has no idea how he got there, 373 00:19:46,458 --> 00:19:48,375 and the last memory he said he had 374 00:19:48,500 --> 00:19:51,583 was being on a very cold Lake Michigan. 375 00:19:51,708 --> 00:19:54,375 So the million-dollar question is: what happened 376 00:19:54,500 --> 00:19:59,042 from the time he was on Lake Michigan on a frozen lake 377 00:19:59,167 --> 00:20:02,250 to the time he arrives in Massachusetts?

Sanderson, 669 00:35:39,750 --> 00:35:43,708 who was a biologist and author, produced a paper called 670 00:35:43,833 --> 00:35:47,250 "The 12 Devil's Graveyards Around the World." 671 00:35:48,417 --> 00:35:51,833 And this caused a sensation because he noted 672 00:35:51,958 --> 00:35:54,625 that places like the Bermuda Triangle 673 00:35:54,750 --> 00:35:59,333 and the Dragon's Triangle, or the Devil's Sea, 674 00:35:59,500 --> 00:36:03,333 were part of this global system marking ten points 675 00:36:03,500 --> 00:36:06,417 on the surface of the Earth 676 00:36:06,542 --> 00:36:09,125 where strange occurrences kept happening. 677 00:36:10,208 --> 00:36:12,542 Sanderson predicted that the Earth 678 00:36:12,708 --> 00:36:17,833 was covered by a series of what he referred to 679 00:36:17,958 --> 00:36:20,458 as "vile vortices." 680 00:36:21,542 --> 00:36:25,500 Five of these were located in a latitude 681 00:36:25,667 --> 00:36:30,333 known as the Tropic of Cancer on the north of the Equator, 682 00:36:30,458 --> 00:36:33,833 and five of them were to the south of the Equator 683 00:36:33,958 --> 00:36:35,833 on the Tropic of Capricorn. 684 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:37,500 And the remaining two 685 00:36:37,625 --> 00:36:40,167 were at the North Pole and the South Pole. 686 00:36:40,292 --> 00:36:44,500 And these were locations around the world 687 00:36:44,625 --> 00:36:48,708 where there were disappearances of vessels 688 00:36:48,833 --> 00:36:53,625 and other strange occurrences on a regular basis. 689 00:36:55,542 --> 00:36:57,917 Many researchers find Ivan T. Sanderson's theory 690 00:36:58,042 --> 00:36:59,667 to be compelling, 691 00:36:59,792 --> 00:37:03,750 even if not every mysterious triangular area 692 00:37:03,875 --> 00:37:05,708 reported to exist on the planet 693 00:37:05,875 --> 00:37:07,833 is located in a vile vortice. 694 00:37:09,542 --> 00:37:12,083 And they claim that the pattern he discovered 695 00:37:12,208 --> 00:37:15,875 suggests that the disappearances within these areas 696 00:37:16,042 --> 00:37:20,500 may be due to vast global forces. 697 00:37:20,667 --> 00:37:22,375 When we're looking at these locations 698 00:37:22,500 --> 00:37:24,208 of these triangles that are placed 699 00:37:24,333 --> 00:37:26,333 at specific points around the planet, 700 00:37:26,417 --> 00:37:30,667 we are looking at things like gravitational anomalies, 701 00:37:30,792 --> 00:37:33,333 instrument malfunctions, 702 00:37:33,417 --> 00:37:36,250 magnetic anomalies, 703 00:37:36,375 --> 00:37:38,250 and many other strange occurrences, 704 00:37:38,375 --> 00:37:40,667 all within these specific triangles. 705 00:37:40,833 --> 00:37:44,458 So we have to question, is there a deeper mystery here 706 00:37:44,542 --> 00:37:46,875 that we don't yet fully understand? 707 00:37:49,208 --> 00:37:52,708 If pockets of unstable energy 708 00:37:52,833 --> 00:37:56,417 are causing bizarre vanishings around the globe, 709 00:37:56,542 --> 00:37:58,958 then it naturally begs the question, 710 00:37:59,083 --> 00:38:01,458 what could be powering them? 711 00:38:01,583 --> 00:38:04,542 Well, according to one extraordinary theory, 712 00:38:04,708 --> 00:38:08,333 the source may be an enormous crystal 713 00:38:08,417 --> 00:38:10,667 embedded within the Earth. 714 00:38:14,375 --> 00:38:16,417 Bermuda, Michigan, 715 00:38:16,542 --> 00:38:20,167 Nevada, Alaska, Japan... 716 00:38:20,333 --> 00:38:22,458 Countless ships, planes, and lives 717 00:38:22,583 --> 00:38:25,042 have been lost in these areas. 718 00:38:25,167 --> 00:38:26,875 So many, in fact, that some people 719 00:38:27,042 --> 00:38:30,250 refer to them collectively as the Devil's Triangles. 720 00:38:31,708 --> 00:38:33,542 Is it possible that all of these areas 721 00:38:33,667 --> 00:38:38,167 are somehow connected, as many researchers believe? 722 00:38:38,250 --> 00:38:40,625 Perhaps a clue can be found with a theory 723 00:38:40,708 --> 00:38:44,500 which proposes that the nature of the Earth itself 724 00:38:44,625 --> 00:38:49,792 may be far different from what we commonly think. 725 00:38:51,333 --> 00:38:53,542 There is a theory that the Earth 726 00:38:53,708 --> 00:38:56,500 early in its history had a core 727 00:38:56,625 --> 00:38:59,625 that was completely liquid but was cooling. 728 00:39:00,583 --> 00:39:02,667 And as it cools, there would come a point 729 00:39:02,792 --> 00:39:06,500 where the center of the Earth would crystallize. 730 00:39:06,625 --> 00:39:09,458 And if you keep growing that crystal, 731 00:39:09,542 --> 00:39:12,667 it's very likely to become polycrystalline, 732 00:39:12,792 --> 00:39:14,833 meaning that there's lots of crystals. 733 00:39:14,917 --> 00:39:17,333 And so, over a period of billions of years, 734 00:39:17,500 --> 00:39:19,833 you end up with something that is a solid 735 00:39:19,958 --> 00:39:24,333 in a region of the Earth consisting of many crystals. 736 00:39:25,542 --> 00:39:26,684 When you're looking at the center 737 00:39:26,708 --> 00:39:28,333 of the Earth being a crystal, 738 00:39:28,500 --> 00:39:31,125 crystals have facets on their surface. 739 00:39:31,250 --> 00:39:33,125 And, really, crystals are also known 740 00:39:33,250 --> 00:39:34,500 for storing energy, 741 00:39:34,667 --> 00:39:36,333 and their different facets and points 742 00:39:36,500 --> 00:39:37,851 will have different levels of energy. 743 00:39:37,875 --> 00:39:41,667 This is certainly part of why we have anomalies 744 00:39:41,792 --> 00:39:44,125 on the Earth's surface, and why they vary 745 00:39:44,250 --> 00:39:45,875 around the surface of the Earth. 746 00:39:47,125 --> 00:39:48,750 Is the center of the Earth 747 00:39:48,875 --> 00:39:53,417 really a giant crystal filled with energy? 748 00:39:53,542 --> 00:39:56,833 According to some scientists, it's a distinct possibility. 749 00:39:58,542 --> 00:40:00,542 And there are those who believe that if the Earth 750 00:40:00,708 --> 00:40:03,375 really has a crystal core, 751 00:40:03,500 --> 00:40:05,625 it might explain why some areas of the planet 752 00:40:05,750 --> 00:40:08,833 are home to mysterious disappearances 753 00:40:08,958 --> 00:40:11,625 and strange phenomena. 754 00:40:14,250 --> 00:40:17,833 In the early 1970s, three Russian scientists 755 00:40:17,917 --> 00:40:21,542 produced a paper called "Is the Earth a Large Crystal?" 756 00:40:21,708 --> 00:40:24,500 They believed that this angular crystal 757 00:40:24,625 --> 00:40:27,208 could have actually been at the center of the Earth, 758 00:40:27,375 --> 00:40:31,000 and they believed that the energetic signatures 759 00:40:31,167 --> 00:40:35,833 of the points of this crystal could be witnessed energetically 760 00:40:35,958 --> 00:40:38,875 and noted on the Earth's surface. 761 00:40:39,958 --> 00:40:41,833 Incredibly, the study revealed 762 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,042 that the points of the hypothetical crystal 763 00:40:44,167 --> 00:40:47,875 aligned with many of the so-called Devil's Triangles 764 00:40:48,042 --> 00:40:49,500 around the globe. 765 00:40:49,583 --> 00:40:53,000 It would seem that electromagnetic phenomena 766 00:40:53,083 --> 00:40:57,292 is present that seems to mark out this grid, 767 00:40:57,375 --> 00:41:01,042 and that it is at such locations 768 00:41:01,208 --> 00:41:05,458 where these disappearances and vanishes occur, 769 00:41:05,542 --> 00:41:10,667 and therefore they are seen as dangerous locations, 770 00:41:10,750 --> 00:41:14,542 places where human beings, where human life can be lost. 771 00:41:15,542 --> 00:41:17,875 We need to get to grips with these ideas 772 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,708 if ever we want to start understanding 773 00:41:20,875 --> 00:41:25,375 the disappearances and crashes and similar incidents 774 00:41:25,500 --> 00:41:28,667 taking place in such places. 775 00:41:32,292 --> 00:41:33,625 So, what do you think? 776 00:41:33,750 --> 00:41:35,625 Are there strange forces on our planet 777 00:41:35,708 --> 00:41:39,167 that cause people to simply vanish without a trace? 778 00:41:39,250 --> 00:41:41,750 It's a hard concept to prove, but what's undeniable 779 00:41:41,875 --> 00:41:44,542 is that certain areas seem to swallow up 780 00:41:44,708 --> 00:41:46,208 those who enter them. 781 00:41:46,333 --> 00:41:49,667 And so, until science can provide us 782 00:41:49,750 --> 00:41:52,000 with more answers, it's probably best 783 00:41:52,167 --> 00:41:56,167 to avoid these mysterious places 784 00:41:56,292 --> 00:41:58,000 and allow them to remain... 785 00:41:59,458 --> 00:42:01,333 unexplained. 786 00:42:01,383 --> 00:42:05,933 Repair and Synchronization by Easy Subtitles Synchronizer 1.0.0.0 61964
