Conspiracies : Bermuda Triangle

 Our world is riddled with unexplained and extraordinary events.
You can turn back now or learn about conspiracies and secrets.

Bermuda Triangle




Earths Ocean is gigantic, even in the modern era, it’s not uncommon for a ship or a plane to disappear and get lost in the ocean. In the days before Satellites and GPS this danger was ever present. Certain areas of the world were considered unlucky, some would even say cursed.


The Bermuda Triangle is the most famous of these locations. Also known as the Devils Triangle.

It is generally thought to stretch east from Miami to Bermuda and south to Puerto Rico.

Multiple disasters have been attributed to the triangle, most famously in December of 1945 when 5 Navy Planes allegedly disappear in the area. The list of the accidents on the Bermuda triangle seems to grow each year.


Mainstream scientists have attributed the events are caused by natural causes, from pilot error to bad weather, but could they be wrong?

Some researcher’s aren’t satisfied with these natural explanations. In fact they say the disappearance might be due to something more sinister, strange and mysterious.

Bermuda researchers like Charles Berlitz list a number of supernatural explanations for the activities in the Bermuda triangle.

Although Berlitz himself did not accept the more extraordinary claim, people around the world have held from some bizarre explanations.

Some have claims that the activity in the Bermuda triangle comes from lost technology of the mythical Atlantis.


Others have claimed that the Bermuda triangle covers an area of intense geomagnetic force, similar to Stonehenge.


Of course no mysterious phenomenon is complete without the mention of Aliens.




It gets even weirder when the psychic Edgar Cayce predicted that the Atlantis will be rediscovered, his disciples believe him.

And by their account, he was proven correct with the discovery of the Bimini road.


This under sea formation stretches for half a mile near the north Bimini island in the Bahamas.

Through Cayce followers, the limestone blocks laid across the ocean floor are man made or at least maid by alien civilizations, and proved that Atlantis was originally based somewhere in the Atlantic.

The Bimini road was discovered in 1968, although mainstream scientist largely decided that the formations along the Bimini road are natural rather than manufactured, the debate continues.

Skeptics argue that the Bermuda triangle reputation is solely based on exaggeration, bad research and twisted facts.

The Bermuda triangle is a high traffic area, and although accidents do occur they are proportionately no more frequent in this area than in the other part of the world. This is usually the part where conspiracy theorist alleged a cover up.

So who is correct? While the majority of researchers and scientist agree that the Bermuda triangle mystery has been debunked, the belief persists.

Despite Cayce prophecy, Atlantis has yet to reappear and many of the alleged incidents have upon further investigation turned out to be easily explained, yet even the most committed skeptics must admit, the ocean are vast and we have no idea what they contain.


While mainstream science dismisses the claims of paranormal researchers, they still hold to the original arguments and although many people have given up the debate, the conspiracies and skeptics agree on one thing, only time will tell what lies beneath the waves.

Conspiracies : DMT

Our world is riddled with unexplained and extraordinary events.

DMT 




Dimethyltryptamine or DMT is naturally occurring compounds made of carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen. DMT is present in plants and it occurs naturally in human body. Scientist isn't sure what role DMT plays in human, but plants containing DMT have been used in religious ceremonies for thousands of years.

In U.S., DMT is a schedule 1 drug, this substance is illegal under section C, which means there is a lack of accepted safety for use of DMT under medical supervision.


The substance is not addictive, yet thousands of people around the world have use it to experience with some describe as an extra dimensional plain of reality. Vastly different from our own,  but just as real.


According to some researchers, these users may be at least partially correct. It seems that DMT users may have early similar hallucination.

Dr. Rick Strassman, a professor of psychiatry at the University of Mexico, notes that many of the 60 volunteers he exposed to DMT reported experiencing an interaction with some other intelligence.

An Alien presence has communicated with them during their hallucination.


According to Graham Hancock, author of Supernatural, these presences are real. Hancock also believes that these drug use and contact with these creatures dates back thousands of years.


The idea that a psychoactive substance could trigger some sorts of extra sensory contact with non human intelligence is a lot to swallow, especially without proof. While conspiracy theorist and researchers like Hancock argue that the proof is all around the world in ancient religious symbols, the mainstream did not consider this as an objective fact.


Prof Strassman is attempting to find the biological explanations for the effects of DMT, and he believes the answer may lie on Pineal Gland. Strassman theorizes that the Pineal Gland may be the source of human DMT production.



Yet it’s difficult to believe that a vast government conspiracy these strange could exist without solid proof. And the current scientific research seems to produce more questions.


Why does DMT occur naturally in the human body? Why do high amounts of DMT cause users to experience such similar lucid hallucinations?
Is DMT just a powerful hallucinogenic substance? Or something else?
