A Survivor Reveals New Information About the Bermuda Triangle Mystery
The Bermuda Triangle is a strange place.
We keep hearing about several incidents of a commercial airliner or a private jet being
lost and never being found.
One such lost aircraft, 'Flight 19', is quite folklore in the theories surrounding the strange
happenings inside the Bermuda Triangle region.
From hostile weather to strange electromagnetic waves and even strange aliens, there are a
host of theories explaining these disappearances.
But of course, no such theory has ever been proven.
The unfortunate people who happen to encounter the Bermuda Triangle mystery have rarely made
it out alive and hence there is no first-hand experience from the passengers or the pilots
of the airplanes who have been lost in the region.
But not all airplanes flying in the region meet the same fate.
They fly out of it just fine.
On an average day, hundreds of planes fly over it or cruise it on ships.
They don't crash or sink or disappear.
Yet, sometimes it happens and you never know when the compass will suddenly start spinning
wildly and fog will surround your aircraft- a fog that you can't escape.
There is no particular season for the Bermuda Triangle effect.
It can happen to anyone, at any time.
Despite the various myths and theories surrounding the region, some skeptics downplay the Bermuda
Triangle mystery.
They attribute all the missing aircraft and ships to mechanical failures, bad weather,
and human error, rejecting anything that is beyond known physical laws.
Certainly, they are correct in some instances, but that isn't the whole truth.
There also have been incidents where pilots have encountered strange life-threatening
incidents but have still managed to get out alive.
According to these survivors, they experienced strange phenomena like time warps and even
teleportation.
Today, we are going to take you through one such survivor's account of the strange happenings
inside the region.
The real-life incident is documented in Bruce Gernon's book - The Fog which is based on
solving the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle.
Who is Bruce Gernon?
Bruce Gernon has appeared in over 50 television documentaries explaining his experiences in
the Bermuda Triangle.
His groundbreaking theory is based upon firsthand experiences of flying in the Bermuda Triangle
region.
Gernon tells us about a natural phenomenon that may be behind many of the seemingly paranormal
happenings in the Bermuda Triangle causing time distortion, pilot disorientation, and
equipment malfunctions.
Bruce is a Certified Flight Instructor and an active pilot since 1965 with a commercial
pilot, helicopter, instrument, and seaplane ratings.
Gernon has owned and flown a variety of aircraft including two A-36 Bonanza, Cessna 210 and
Cessna 182, Sea Ray Amphibian, and the Piper Cherokee.
What happened with Bruce Gernon?
Bruce was just 23 years old when this mind-boggling event happened to him.
He had been flying planes since a teenager with his dad and even got his flying license
when he was just 18.
But what happened that day changed his entire life.
On December 4, 1970, Bruce was at the controls flying his dad and his business partner.
Their plane took off from Andros Island in the Bahamas.
The island has its mythology.
It is mostly forested with hundreds of tiny islets and 178 blue holes which are entry
points to a vast underwater cave system that pockets the island.
Bruce and his crew were aboard a new Bonanza A36.
The A36 is a stable and smooth-flying aircraft.
Even today, the Bonanza airframe remains relatively unchanged and is one of general aviation's
finest aircraft.
Bruce and his father along with his business partner scouted the island to find a potential
place for a resort they intended to build and then headed to the aircraft to go back.
But since it was raining, they had to reschedule their flight and wait till the weather was
better.
The crew took off aboard the Bonanza A36 at around 3 pm from Andros Town Airport.
Because further weather conditions were unavailable, Bruce decided to get airborne and then call
Miami Flight Services for atmospheric conditions.
After flying for a few minutes off the Florida coast, the aircraft reached a height of 1000
feet.
Bruce noticed a cloud ceiling at around 1500 feet and hence couldn't go any higher.
They were cruising at around 180mph at the same height when the drizzle ended and the
sky was clear.
By then, they had reached the northwest end of Andros Island and were flying over the
ocean shallows of the Great Bahama Bank.
The start of trouble
It was then that he started encountering a strange phenomenon that later came to be known
as the Bermuda Triangle Mystery.
In his book, he details an experience he said he had while flying off the Florida coast
in 1970 when he claims he flew into an "electronic fog" and time traveled.
According to Bruce, he noticed an opening in a massive cloud.
At the top of the cloud on either side, the arms extended outwards above the opening.
It looked like the arms would soon connect, creating a bridge and forming a tunnel.
The two anvil heads connect to form a tunnel which is about a mile wide and at least 10
to 15 miles long.
As their aircraft approached the tunnel, they realized that its diameter was shrinking.
By the time they were just 3 miles away from it, the opening was only about a thousand
feet wide.
Bruce knew from his flight instruction class that sometimes at high altitudes, usually
above 5000 feet, long horizontal tunnels formed in storm clouds.
His instructor called them "sucker holes'' and had strictly warned him to not fly through
them.
Some pilots had tried the feat but were never seen again.
But Bruce had no other choice but to go through it as he was surrounded by a massive storm
cloud from all sides.
His only option was to exit the cloud through the only visible opening- the tunnel.
When Bruce's aircraft reached the tunnel, its aperture was only about 300 feet wide
and still shrinking.
What was inside the tunnel?
As soon as they entered the tunnel, they were startled by strange embedded lines on the
inside of its walls which looked like puffs of gray clouds.
These lines swirled the plane around in an anticlockwise motion.
The tunnel was still shrinking and the tips of the plane's wings scraped the edges of
the clouds.
That is when Bruce and his crew started feeling complete weightlessness like in zero gravity.
After about 10 seconds, the weightlessness vanished and they decided to check their position
in the sky.
Bruce's dad was also a trained pilot and, because he was feeling disoriented, he asked
his father to find their exact location.
Bruce says that his dad fiddled with the instruments much longer than usual and then realized something
was not right.
Almost all of the instruments were malfunctioning.
The wet compass was spinning slowly, counter-clockwise all by itself.
The electronic navigational instruments were all malfunctioning.
Even the air-traffic control couldn't locate the aircraft on radar.
It was truly terrifying for Bruce and his father because it never happened in their
flying careers.
But then something even strange happened.
Exiting the tunnel
As Bruce and his father were trying to exit the tunnel, they suddenly saw everything appear
a dull- grayish-white, instead of the clear blue sky.
Visibility appeared to be more than 2 miles but there was absolutely nothing to see- no
ocean, no sky, no horizon, only a gray haze.
The haze was much darker than normal.
Bruce describes this as a kind of fog, but not like the regular fog where the visibility
is never much more than a few hundred feet.
In fact, in this fog, they were able to see much farther, only there wasn't anything to
see.
Bruce and his dad, along with his business partner, started to panic.
They slowed down the plane to a maneuvering speed of 180 miles per hour because they didn't
know what would happen next.
The compass was spinning awkwardly and not showing any position.
And with no sense of direction, they might be going anywhere, even directly into a more
dangerous storm cloud.
At this point, they were flying for around 32 minutes and should have been approaching
the chain of Bimini islands.
If the internal compass was working, Bruce knew that they would be crossing the island
in about six to seven minutes.
But that wasn't the case.
There was no information from the air-traffic control on the transponder, further heightening
their fears.
Nonetheless, they continued to fly, still shrouded by the odd haze.
Then suddenly, the air traffic controller yelled that he had spotted an airplane directly
over Miami beach, heading due West.
Bruce looked at his watch and knowing that they were flying only for the last 34 minutes,
they couldn't have reached Miami.
So he told the controller that they were approximately 90 miles southwest of Miami and still looking
for the Bimini chain of islands.
Just then, the fog started to break apart, but it didn't just dissipate.
Long ribbons of fog ran parallel along their direction of flight.
The ribbons appeared to spread apart about one mile from the plane and ran three miles
in the front.
The slits gradually grew wider, and then within several seconds, the ribbons of fog disappeared.
Bruce says it was "electronic dissipation".
There was a bright blue sky in view once again and Bruce noticed familiar lands when he saw
the Miami beach directly below the plane.
But how did they get there?
It wasn't possible to cover that distance in such a short time.
Bruce claims that while navigating through the tunnel, he traveled 30 minutes through
time.
Gernon said what pulled him into the fog was the same force that swallowed others into
the Bermuda Triangle's black hole, and he thinks he was just lucky to get out.
Electronic Fog
Now, this theory, which Gernon calls "electronic fog", is responsible for the mysterious disappearances
of aircraft in the Bermuda triangle region, according to him.
Electronic Fog is something like a grayish cloud of electromagnetic fields that get formed
above the ocean.
Such electronic fog seems to appear from almost nowhere and suddenly engulfs an aircraft or
a ship.
The fog is then believed to keep moving along with the ship or the plane.
And soon enough, all the electronic equipment inside the aircraft or the ship start to malfunction.
Nothing works correctly and spatial and time disorientation begins to emerge.
As a result, the ship or the aircraft might disintegrate or disappear without a trace.
So far, all such incidents of Electronic Fog have been described as supernatural phenomena
and there isn't any valid proof of it.
But even while this theory is not proven as of yet, Gernon's detailed experiences are
astonishing.
His claim of time travel through the tunnel is shocking and unprecedented.
Whatever the truth behind it might be, one thing is clear.
Bruce Gernon along with his father and his business partner was only a lucky few to have
survived the electronic malfunction while flying in the infamous region.
They are the only ones to have witnessed the 'electronic fog' from birth through the mature
stage and to enter the heart of the Timestorm, escaping through a Tunnel Vortex and resulting
in a time warp of 30 minutes forward in time, and 100 miles forward in space.
His story is as thrilling as it can get.
Gernon believes that a rare natural phenomenon may be behind many of the seemingly paranormal
happenings in the Triangle, causing time distortions, pilot disorientation, and equipment malfunctions.
Gernon's exciting new theory of the Bermuda Triangle is based upon his firsthand experiences,
reports of other survivors, and scientific research.
