You heard right. Scientists have finally found what they believe could be the reason behind so many disappearances and anomalies in the Bermuda Triangle.

Scientists have discovered many massive craters beneath the surface of the Barents Sea. Up to a half a mile wide and some as far as 150 feet deep, these giant craters are believed to be caused by the build up methane off the coast of the natural gas-rich Norway.

The methane is believed to have leaked from deposits further below the surface, where they pooled and created cavities which finally burst.

‘Multiple giant craters exist on the sea floor in an area in the west-central Barents Sea … and are probably a cause of enormous blowouts of gas,’ said researchers from the Arctic University of Norway told the Sunday Times.

Scientists also claim the the crater area is one of the largest hotspots for shallow marine methane release ever discovered. The explosions causing the craters to open up could potentially pose risks to vessels travelling on Barents Sea, scientists say.

So now that we have a reason for all of the disappearances and so on… where is all the wreckage?
