When I was in my late teens, I ended up on a boat from Ft Lauderdale to the Bahamas. Theres no way no to go through just a little bit of the Burmuda Triangle. I remember freaking out / being super excited, wondering what crazy stuff things would happen on our journey. Of course, nothing happened. I was so disillusioned.
The triangle is HUGE, and due to where it covers, a lot of shipping went through it, and still does iirc… Saying its dangerous because ships wrecked there often isn’t that far off from calling Earth dangerous since every human has died there. It’s a true statement, I suppose, but the context helps understand it’s not a very reasonable one.
Yeah the mystery of the triangle was puffed up by disingenuous authors who lied and fudged details to pretend ships went missing all the time. Things like reporting ships missing but not their eventual returns, claiming there were no storms when records showed otherwise, including sinkings and crashes that happened well outside the triangle, and a bunch more.
When the the data is analysed; the number of incidents is the same as anywhere else on the planet.
I remember freaking out when the last season of Friends aired - what, there are people vacationing in Bermuda? Are they insane? I was in my late teens

Dude I would have shat my pants.
Truth be told I would still shit my pants.
That’s the true danger of the Bermuda Triangle.
Nah. Seasickness doesnt make you shit your pants. Depending on who you are, you may pee yourself a little, though.
By now, satellites and GPS can just navigate us around the triangle, kind of like with hurricanes.

Crew of Soyuz 11: “Well, screw you too!”
Haha, I was worried there were some obscure deaths I didn’t know about.
