One of the earth’s most mysterious places the Bermuda Triangle. So many boats, planes, and lives have been lost in an area that is understandably nicknamed “The Devil’s Triangle,” yet there is no certain explanation as to what exactly happens and why. This area is found between Puerto Rico, Miami, and Bermuda covering an area of 500,000 square miles. The Bermuda Triangle has taken down over one hundred aircrafts in seven decades.
This coming Sunday on Curiosity (which is on the Discovery Channel), an episode will air where a team of investigators go deep into the triangle to explore ocean floor wrecks and stage experiments to tackle the mystery once and for all. Is it some form of extreme weather? A rare ocean phenomenon? Or could something else? The scientists test theories on a scale never done before
Curiosity: The Devil’s Triangle premieres Sunday, October 14 at 9:00pm E/P. Check out some of the previews below. I’m certainly intrigued!

The Bermuda Triangle reaches from Bermuda (a tiny island) to Puerto Rico (a tiny island) to the city of Miami (not so tiny.)
The concept of the Bermuda triangle was created in 1950 with an article by Associated Press reporter Edward Van Winkle Jones. He had a map showing an airplane flying from Bermuda toward Puerto Rico, another plane flying from Puerto Rico to Miami, and finally, Flight 19 flying from Fort Lauderdale out in the direction of Bermuda.
It looks a triangle drawn over the Atlantic Ocean. Each year, ships and planes go missing off the eastern coastline of the United States, as planes have for a century, and ships literally for hundreds of years. Yet both the US Coast Guard and Lloyds of London state that no more ships or planes go missing here than off the Pacific coastline.
Much of the story however, begins with Flight 19, aka the Lost Patrol when supposedly they disappeared suddenly into the infamous Bermuda Triangle. Flight 19 disappeared in December of 1945 but it wasn’t into the Bermuda triangle and it wasn’t sudden — it took five hours for each of the TMB avengers to drop out of the sky. The irony of Flight 19 is that none of the men died within the infamous Bermuda triangle.
Three crash sites have been located and one aircraft has been raised from the sea.
