Surely you ’ve see of theBermuda Triangle . It ’s that supposed vortex of death place in the Atlantic Ocean around Miami , Puerto Rico and Bermuda where planes , tanker and thousands of mass have mysteriously disappeared .
But there ’s a Bermuda Triangle counterpart located in the Pacific Ocean . It ’s called the Dragon ’s Triangle — or Devil ’s Sea — and it ’s situated in the Philippine Sea between Japan , the Philippines and Guam .
The Dragon ’s Triangle , however , has been feature heavily in folklore for century . apologue surrounding the dangers of the Dragon ’s Triangle date back to 1000 B.C.E. In China , people consider a mythical dragon lived beneath the open of the ocean , pulling ships and sailors down into the depths of its weak lair .
Both the Bermuda Triangle and the Dragon ’s Triangle are considered vile whirl , areas where the Earth ’s electromagnetic wave are purportedly stronger than anywhere else . The planet has 12 of these so - shout out slimy vortices — and all 12 havemysterious disappearancesassociated with them . Thelocations of these 12 vorticeswere theorized in 1972 by cryptozoologist and extrasensory enthusiast Ivan T. Sanderson to explain the secret disappearance and deaths that pass off in these orbit of the earth .
Butnot everyone agreesthat there are any mysterious disappearances to explicate . Many contend that statistically , no more wrecks occur in the Dragon ’s Triangle ( or Bermuda Triangle for that topic ) than in any other area . In several vitrine , such as the Kaiyo - Maru No . 5 , spell of wreckage were eventually recovered , debunking the " vaporize ship " account .
Still others wonder if the Dragon ’s Triangle location atop the Izu - Bonin volcanic bow — a system of tectonic - plate convergent boundary line — could explain that ancient Formosan fable about underwater dragon .
