Dragon's Triangle


In recent years, much has been written about the Bermuda Triangle and the mysterious phenomena associated with it. Most of us know that the Bermuda Triangle is an area of ​​the ocean in triangular shape, stretching from the Straits of Florida, northeast of Bermuda, south to the Lesser Antilles, and then back to Florida.

 Less well known is that on the other side of the world, there is a similar area of ​​ocean known as the Dragon's Triangle. Dragon's Triangle follows a line from Western Japan, north of Tokyo, to a point in the Pacific Ocean at the latitude of about 145 degrees east longitude. It turns to the southwest, near the Bonin Islands, then down to Guam and Yap, west to Taiwan, before heading back to Japan in the north-east direction.

Both areas are famous about the missing ships and planes stories, reports of malfunctions of navigation and communication equipment and tales of drifting ghost ship.
 Dragon Triangle in particular, has known evidence of the ever-changing seascape. The islands and the land can be formed and disappeared literally overnight through volcanic activity and underwater earthquake.

 For more than a thousand years, possibly longer, the Japanese and their neighbors recorded the strange disappearances and accidents. Ancient records say the dragon from the depths of that accident takes sailors back to their underground lair. There are legends about the underwater palaces inhabited by dragons and the great dragon slumbering in a cave under the sea.

 In ancient times, such cases have been explained the intervention of the gods, demons and mythical creatures. Today the fate of the missing vessels and crews remain a mystery, although many explanations have been offered. These include, alien abduction, disappearance into a "black hole" or gateway to another dimension of the universe, time, or  parallel world. The destruction and disappearance without trace by extreme natural phenomena, kidnapping by "hostile forces" and even manipulation of insurance of ships.
 Whatever it was, the triangle of the dragon, along with its equivalent of the Bermuda Triangle is one of the most haunted locations in the world.

birds heralds the apocalypse


In recent years, cases of falling dead birds from the sky. According to the most pessimistic version of this is due to the approach of the Apocalypse, which some scientists believe will happen soon. The reasons for these phenomena are unusual but not apocalyptic, experts say. What can kill a bird in flight?

 Storms, hail or lightning among the possible causes that lead to the death of birds and fall. Experts explain that a tornado could easily suck frogs and small birds, which then fall to earth with rain. There were cases when the storm sucked the little creatures that caused the loss of small fish near the beach in Australia in 2010 and frogs in Serbia in 2005.

The reasons for these phenomena are not only natural but also done by humans. For example, fireworks, high-voltage cable or armored, can cause the death of flying creatures.
 Modern threats such as pollution and climate change can lead to increased stress among wild creatures. A few months ago, the Swedish authorities were investigating the deaths of about 100 seagulls that fell in the city of Falkoping.

 "They did an autopsy of 5 of them and found internal bleeding but no external damage was found," said Marianne Elvander from the National Veterinary Institute in Sweden. She stressed that extinction could cause by disease, such as avian flu.

 In Beebe, Arkansas, local fireworks during the celebration, caused consternation among the birds that flew and hit indiscriminately on houses and trees. Blackbirds fly in large numbers and have poor night vision.
 Many birds die in the winter, when there is no food. In religious Americans have black predictions that falling birds portend the apocalypse.
