A Place More Terrifying than the Bermuda Triangle
Most people are familiar with the Bermuda Triangle, especially those who enjoy mysterious phenomena. This area is known as one of the most dangerous places in the world, where ships have vanished without a trace, and planes have disappeared with hundreds of people aboard.
The Bermuda Triangle is a perplexing enigma that has captivated people for ages. Once a ship or plane enters this region, it often never reemerges. Surrounded by countless mysteries and supernatural occurrences, the area attracts adventure seekers fascinated by various conspiracy theories.
Located in the Atlantic Ocean, this triangular area, also known as the "Devil's Triangle," is defined by three points: Florida in the United States, Puerto Rico, and the Caribbean islands.
From 1945 to 2017, numerous mysterious incidents occurred in this region. Many vessels and aircraft that traversed this imaginary triangle have mysteriously vanished. In the past century, approximately 20 aircraft have gone missing, some of which have never been found, while others’ wreckage has been recovered.
Once believed to be a lair of malevolent forces, the area earned its nickname, the Devil's Triangle. However, did you know there are similar triangles around the world? One such area is in Alaska, known as the "Alaska Triangle," where more people have gone missing than in any other place.
Located near Anchorage, Juneau, and the northern coastal city of Utqiaġvik, over 20,000 people have disappeared in the Alaska Triangle, leaving behind many unsolved mysteries. According to IFL Science, this area first gained public attention in October 1972, when a small plane carrying two American politicians, Thomas Hale Boggs Sr. and Nick Begich, vanished while flying from Anchorage to Juneau.
Also on board was Begich's assistant, Russell Brown, along with the pilot, all of whom went missing. The U.S. conducted extensive searches to locate them, but they were never found, nor was the aircraft.
The disappearance of these two politicians sparked considerable debate. Thomas was a member of the Warren Commission, established to investigate the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy, and he disagreed with the commission's published report. This led some to believe that his disappearance was not just a coincidence.
Since the 1970s, reports claim that over 20,000 people have mysteriously vanished in the Alaska Triangle, further adding to the intrigue of this eerie region.
