The Bermuda Triangle has long been the stuff of legends. Disappearing planes and ships within the region have captured the public attention since the 1800s, though it goes all the way back to the time of Columbus. Now, five people have come forward with a shocking new account of what goes on in the Triangle. " I have no doubt that we saw something crazy out there."Their story is only one of many from... THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE

It was a typical day like any other. Calm seas, peaceful weather. We were just out to have a good time really. If you told me this voyage was going to be one hell of a ride, I wouldn't have believed you.

The five men were fishing in a small schooner, called the Megadeth. There were five people on board.

Their names have been withheld, so we will call them A B C D and E here.
"Say C, have you caught any fish yet?" asked E

"Not yet, why?"
THIS IS A RECONSTRUCTION OF THE EVENTS. NO VIDEOS WERE SHOT UNFORTUNATELY.

So the five friends went on with their fishing. They had no idea what was in store for them that morning.

Things were quiet, with nothing really going on that could be considrered exciting until, it happened.
Off in the distance, person A noticed something. "Hey B, C, do you see that?" He asked, pointing to the sky.

"It looks like fog," said C.
"But no fog that I've ever seen," said B. "Should we go in for a closer look?"

"I suppose" said A
"No! We can't just go off and sail blindly into the fog; it will be impossible to navigate!" Said E

"But we need to figure out what's going on," said A, when he was suddenly interrupted by D screaming from the bridge.
"The compass! The compass!" he was crying.

"What's going on!?" A screamed.
"It's not working! Look, it's just spinning like crazy!" He pointed out.
"Ok, calm down... try the GPS, should give our location" A pointed out

"The GPS is screwed too!"
And sure enough, it the GPS's picture was showing downtown New York... but the men were off the coast of Florida!

"All right, everyone calm down!" A said. "Lets just stop the engines, put down the anchor and get reoriented. I'm sure we can figure this out if we just stay calm!" A shouted

That's when things really got scary.
"There's no anchor!" cried one of the men.
"What?!" cried A. "Are you serious?!"
"Yes, the anchor is missing!"
"Oh no... well stop the engines and we'll just have to sit and wait."

"How do we not have an anchor!?" B said angrily. "It's a standard feature on ALL boats! You literally cannot sail without one!" He fumed.

"We had one, but it's missing now."
And indeed, the chain was still there... but the anchor was not...
"Something very strange is happening here," said A....

Once they stopped the engine, they worked on figuring out where they were.
"I see coastline in the distance... why not sail for that and work our way from there?" D asked.

"We'll have to be careful, however," said A. "All right, let's head for the coast.
So the men went towards the coast. The fog grew thicker and thicker. They could see next to nothing through the fog. When they reached the place where the coast should have been, they found nothing there.
"Oh no. We're screwed," said one of them.

"This doesn't make any sense! We were sailing in a straight line!" C said, scared.
Then, the weirdest thing... just overhead, they saw five planes fly by. B, a history buff, recognized them.
"Hey, look, TBM Avengers. Torpedo bombers America used in WWII" he explained.
"Well what are we doing?! Hey! Help us!" One of them screamed as the planes kept flying away.
"Huh, 5 avenger planes. Does that remind you of Flight 19? The planes that disappeared... not... to... far from...here" D said, realization dawning.
"Everyone relax! You're probably just seeing things!" A said sternly. "What's next, the USS Cyclops?" he asked sarcastically

Suddenly, they saw a huge cargo ship bearing down on them. Just as it was about to hit them, it suddenly veered away.
"Holy... that looks just like the... but I can't be... can it?!"
