Possible solutions to the mystery

So what causes the ships and aircrafts to disappear mysteriously ? There have been many researches and explorations done to uncover this ever-growing mystery but there ’ s no single theory that explains all the incidents of disappearances . Out of the various possibilities , here are the most popular and likely theories :

Large amounts of methane gas are known to exist below the ocean floor in the form of methane hydrates . If such gas finds its way out and starts rising through the water , it can significantly reduce the density of water in that area . And ships passing over can sink in no time . Such gas release can also create explosions & saturate the atmosphere with methane gas causing planes to crash .
Scientists have noticed formation of strange hexagonal shaped clouds on the Bermuda Triangle . This is a rare phenomenon which is more like air bombs . When these bombs blast , they send out winds to the ocean beneath at a speed of 170 mph and this can be dangerous for aircrafts or ships passing by . They also result in extra high waves which are extremely dangerous .
