Scientists may have just made a huge breakthrough in explaining the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle

Scientists may have solved an enduring mystery that has plagued us since records began in 1851.

Scientists believe methane gas explosions may be linked to the mystery of the disappearance of around 8,127 people in the Bermuda Triangle.

The mythical, triangular stretch of ocean, roughly encompassing Puerto Rico, the island of Bermuda, and Miami has been called the Devil's Triangle and more commonly called the Bermuda Triangle.

For the past 165 years, according to the International Business Times, numerous ships and airplanes have disappeared in the area, usually under mysterious circumstances, taking the lives of over 8,000 souls. But new research from scientists at Arctic University in Norway suggests that multiple giant craters on the floor of the Barents Sea may help to explain what's going on in the Bermuda Triangle.

The craters surrounding the seabed on the coast of Norway mark area's where massive explosions of methane gas may have exploded. The study of these craters, some of them are actually chasms 150-feet deep and half-a-mile wide, could have been caused by gas leaking from oil and gas deposits buried deep in the sea floor.

And why are we not recovering that gas for energy use?

I experienced the Triangle first hand back i the early 80s while sailing on an Army freighter through the area. It was about midnight and our bow watch reported seeing lights that rapidly disappeared while Bridge radar was showing targets evenly spaced in a line ahead. Soon, our watch began to report bright orange floating ball shipped objects and more lights coming and going. It was several hours of speculation before we finally figured out that we were in a submarine target exercise area. No longer a mystery for me.

Time to mine gas there, DUH.

I think I fell into the Bermuda Triangle last night.
