Researchers have never been able to find anything truly mysterious about what happens inthe Bermuda Triangle, if there even is a Bermuda Triangle. What is more, one of the biggestchallenges in considering the phenomenon is deciding how much area actually representsthe Bermuda Triangle. Most consider the Triangle to stretch from Miami out to Puerto Ricoand to include the island of Bermuda. Others expand the area to include all of the CaribbeanislandsandtoextendeastwardasfarastheAzores,whichareclosertoEuropethantheyar etoNorthAmerica. The problem with having a larger Bermuda Triangle is that it increases the odds ofaccidents. There is near-constant travel, by ship and by plane, across the Atlantic, andaccidents are expected to occur. In fact, the Bermuda Triangle happens to fall within one ofthe busiest navigational regions in the world, and the reality of greater activity creates thepossibility for more to go wrong. Shipping records suggest that there is not a greater thanaveragelossofvesselswithintheBermudaTriangle,andmanyresearchershavearguedthatth e reputation of the Triangle makes any accident seem out of the ordinary. In fact, mostaccidents fall within the expected margin of error. The increase in ships from East Asia nodoubt contributes to an increase in accidents. And as for the story of the Navy planes thatdisappeared within the Triangle, many researchers now conclude that it was the result ofmistakesonthepartofthepilotswhowereflyingintostormcloudsandsimplygotlost. 12.
