The world’s fastest fish is the Indo-Pacific sailfish, Istiophorus platypterus. This sport fish can swim up to 68 miles per hour by standards (a cheetah can run up to 70 miles per hour). Check out this incredible video from PBS which aired in August of 2010. Marine biologist, Rick Rosenthal, witnesses a rare moment of […]
Ever know instinctively that some animals are ‘related’ and just can’t pinpoint their similarities? On the third day of every month I explain three features that are common among three animals of a certain group. Of course, generally each group has more than three representatives and even many more similarities and then even more differences, […]
I wanted to share this image of anthias swimming in the Red Sea to usher in the briskness of autumn! As you know it’s my favorite time to beachcomb, but it’s also my favorite time to be surrounded by the brilliant-colored leaves of trees. The reds, yellows, and oranges are as vibrant as a coral […]
The “pull” of the water that you feel as you stand in the shallows near the shoreline is just moving water rubbing against your skin. So, why is the water moving out to sea near the beach? Several different forces push – or pull – an excess of water up onto the beach, and then […]
This weekend, I went to the demonstration “Hands Across the Sand”. The intent was to declare to President Obama that we demand clean energy and request a stop to offshore drilling (which he promised to do during his campaign). With all that said, my husband kept telling my mother-in-law that I was going to a […]
Yesterday I promised more insight into one of the featured marine debris heroes as part of the “What Marine Conservationists Are Into …” series are here you have it – The Flotsam Diaries own Harold Johnson! In case you didn’t know this is a series I have been presenting each Tuesday this summer to get […]
Here are five facts to help you identify the featured “holiday” crustacean from the BCS “Christmas/winter-themed marine organisms” Pinterest board. 1. This crustacean belongs to a group (including species from five different families) which prefer the habitat of caves, pools, crevices, or wells in limestone or lava rock that is flooded by seawater. 2. This […]
Has it gotten to the point that when you do connect with Mother Nature it seems like an awkward hug? It’s been said time and time again that we’re better off taking a step away from technology to reconnect with Mother Nature as a regular part of our daily lives. The benefits of establishing a […]
…It’s Charismatic Microfauna! Well, yes there’s the sand, but there is also an unrecognized and perhaps even shocking biodiversity that lies not quite below the surface. Would you believe me if I told you that in a single handful of wet sand you could be holding a community of organisms equaling, if not exceeding, the […]

is it possible that the spirits of the ancestors of Africans are trying to retaliate the bad ways,some whites treated them during the slave trade.After all when they were carrying them across the sea,some fell into the seas,as a matter of fact most of them were sick and died cause for fear of infection of diseases they were thrown into the river.
i can solve the mystery
I think it must have been a black hole or something
i think this is the point where gravitational force is maximum.
tripp out
salam
i think as we muslims believe is correct
IT IS SOMETHING DIVINE
the capitol of the last divine link IMAM MEHDI(a.s)
the things happening is so different. i will try and find the scerete of bermuda triangle. its my one of the aim
Mystery has been solved. There is an active Valcano under the sea.
Regards
I thought the bermuda triangle was located off Ponce Inlet FL. and New Symerna Beach Fl Why does it say otherwise. It has a picture showing Miama and it sould have a Picture starting with Daytona Beach FL or Ponce Inlet FL.
angelo how can u solve the mystery??????
Sayed Agha Ali..You terribly mistaken! there is NO such a thing in Islam..Imam Mehdi is going to be recognised in Makkah. Islam might have NO link whatsoever to the Bermuda Triangle!
i think that its a kind of ocean flood nothing to worry about.
i think there is something magnetic power in that region thats why these all are happening.
I actually thought the Bermuda triangle was more mysterious than what i just read but its not. if there are ships passing through it every day it must be like any other part of the ocean. But if there is something more to it then who ever wants to solve the mystery must have an interview with the Creator Himself He Knows what is going on there.
We need spiritual intervention to solve the problem .
there is some natural power which attracts everythingcomes close to him.
I sailed singlehanded in a 10 meter yacht from San Juan, Puerto Rico, from 22 January 2007 thru the Bermuda triangle and survived. It aint a threat like everybody thinks!
its kida scary. somthing to do with neuclear physics!!!
Its a beauty by nature
Hey, prince what do you mean by him?
send me document bermuda
triangle
Hey im a muslim…
not really too religious tho :$
but this is my theory
in the quraan it says jaal is still on earth in a cave
this only fits in so well that god put jaal in one of these islands and put a boundry so no man could reach the jaal
Hey all.
God knows better who is there, what is that eg Gravitational Force ? ? ?
i think there must be something like a gravitational force which is pulling the ships,air crafts etc.so research is to be done on that place
I love this information
there r some creations of allah which d technology could not login still now..!!!!
i believe it is the place where gravitation force is maximum . eventhough we cant believe the missings of so many metres big and heavy tonnes planes and ships r missing. there must be a black hole. is there a relation between this triangle and2012. what do u say . both r misterious and should be known. get me some documents about it. what about the history in past says about it.
hi ! i’v done intesive research on the whole phenomena and i have come to a conlusion that completely dematerialises any unscientific perception of the phenomena.
1.)The Bermuda triangle is one of the only 2 places on earth that the magnetic compass points to the true north!
2.)Most incidents have been logically explained!
3.)ships & planes go through every day,it has all been blown out of reasonable proportions!
conclusion: it is amere case of earth’s natural magnetism interfering with the ships’ &planes’ normal operating patterns!

i want to know aboyt bermuda triangle briefly
ok, well since most of the mysterious disapearances are aircraft- it is either stronger gravitational pull- or a magnetic field, which would affect compasses. since magnetivity doesnt affect ships as much as an airplane- whereas if u lose the bearing of your plane’s altitude, wing degree, or direction, your fate is close to sealed. with ships- you can always look at the sun or stars for a direction, and you would know if the ship is upside down. a stronger gravitational pull would; also effect planes much more than ships. there are many different theories about this, but these are the scientific facts.
IT IS AMAZING
hey! i m a muslims.
According to me in bermuda something natural powers exist which ALMIGHTY ALLAH don’t wanna show us now it can be related from judgment day (the end of the earht) or it can be related from DAJJAL that he live there. that’s ALL…
God is great,he kept somethings as secret to we human,that even the greatest scientific inventions can’t unravel. If he should make everything straight forward and clear… how are we going to understand that he is the lord of the universe. Please i’ll like to appeal to all those muslim brothers to speak there mind and stop using religion as reference to what they ain’t sure about.Happy boxing day fellas
it is nothing to do with gravity being at its strongest point because as physics has proved gravity is always constant.
i personally think it will be something to do with electrical storms and bad weather.
