mystery of bermuda triangle?

Question

I've read stories that before ships and plains lose contact with land they have reported wandering into a greenish fog. Whenever this occurs the vessel is usually never heard from again, nor is any wreckage recovered.
There have been a few fortunate survivors that lived to tell the tale of the Bermuda Triangle. I read that military personal were performing test flights in the area and at some point the team disappeared from radar. Ten minutes had gone by before the team reappeared on the screens. When they landed and were told about this the team checked their watches and all were ten minutes off from the actual time.
I read another one about an independent pilot that crossed through the vortex point. The airplane experienced turbulence when encountering a very strangle cloud formation. The actual trip that the plane took usually lasted an hour and a half, the plane was lost and flew through what appeared to be a wormhole through a cloud and completed the journey in 45 minutes.
A Korean jet liner was once forced to land in Russian territory for invading airspace. The pilot had done nothing wrong, he followed the airplanes map exactly but still managed to stray from its course. This is because the airplane's map was computerized based off the location of magnetic north. For some unknown reason the map was reading the Bermuda Triangle as magnetic North, thus convincing the system that east was north and north was west.
Some people say its methane gas some say magnetic field is responsible for all these happenings . lets be agree to them but why we couldn't find the remains of the plains and ships disappeared?
any one have the better explanation for this.....!

The only mystery of the Bermuda Triangle is how such a story got started!  The real authorities on matters such as this are the insurance people,  such as Lloyds of London,  who underwrite most of the World's shipping.  Given the higher than other places volume of surface and air traffic in the Caribbean, it is inevitable that a higher number of accidents are going to occur.  It appears that all the stories told of the region are based on one particular book written by a non-scientist who had his own ideas.  In fact,  there is no provable higher incidence of disappearances than anywhere else,  and almost all the incidents you mention have no basis in fact and it should also be born in mind that the region is right in the middle of the hurricane belt!

No mystery here. Wikipedia summarizes it well:

"The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle, is an undefined region in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean where a number of aircraft and ships are said to have disappeared under mysterious circumstances. The triangle does not exist according to the US Navy and the name is not recognized by the US Board on Geographic Names. Popular culture has attributed various disappearances to the paranormal or activity by extraterrestrial beings. Documented evidence indicates that a significant percentage of the incidents were spurious, inaccurately reported, or embellished by later authors. Contrary to popular belief, insurance companies do not charge higher premiums for shipping in this area."

Many reports are unreliable or exaggerated- link 1.

Your comments on a Korean airliner being forced to land in Russia appear to be a garbled version of flight KL007, which was *shot down* by a Russian fighter- link 2.

There is no mystery. There are other shipping lanes in the world with a worse record than this stretch of water. It is hyped up by people selling books. I suspect the 10 minute watch bit is distorted or made up.

I say it is "accidents happen, deal with it"

There are very strong underwater currents that carry the remnants of these missing vessels hundreds if not thousands of miles from their last known location.
