An elite team investigates the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle aided by a secret map decades in the making. In this episode, they attempt to unravel the mystery of why 27 US Navy aviators and crew vanished without a trace on the same night in 1945. While searching for the wrecks of the lost planes they uncover a debris field unlike any they have ever seen, and one with historic implications.
The team dives deep looking for the biggest vessel to ever vanish in the Bermuda Triangle--a massive ship with a monstrous name--the USS Cyclops. Was the USS Cyclops the victim of a terrifying, ship-sinking phenomenon known as a rogue wave? While searching the deep waters, they uncover harrowing stories of other rogue waves prowling the seas and make a discovery that solves a century old mystery.
The team searches for the remains of an entire pirate fleet of ships that vanished suddenly in the Bermuda Triangle, as if swallowed by the ocean. Could a geological anomaly be the source of these ship-sucking whirlpools? Their investigation takes them to the literal bottom of a fabled--and potentially deadly--mid-ocean sinkhole, but what they find waiting in the depths may prove beyond any mystery.
The team signs up one of the most advanced research ships on the planet to search the depths for a lost secret weapon of the Pentagon's arsenal--a top-secret spy plane that vanished into the Bermuda Triangle. Are planes and ships falling victim to a terrifying ocean storm called a white squall? The skies darken as the team pushes deep into dangerous waters attempting to identify whether the plane was lost to freak weather, or something even darker.
The team dives in search of an A3 Skywarrior attack aircraft that was lost in a suspicious disaster off the USS Saratoga aircraft carrier in 1960.
The team sets its sights on a famous Bermuda Triangle case: the twin vanishings of two massive cargo ships; in 1941, the USS Proteus disappears after crossing the Bermuda Triangle; two weeks later, the USS Nereus, also drops off the Earth.
The team seeks out the wreck of the Revonoc, a racing yacht that vanished in 1958 with a crew of five; a freak magnetic anomaly was detected in the Triangle when she went missing.
The team thinks a 300-foot wreck off the tip of Florida just might be the Sudoffco -- a steel freighter lost in 1926 with 29 men while traveling through the Triangle from New Jersey to the Panama Canal...
Mike Barnette, Jimmy Gadomski and the team of investigators are back on the trail of a famous cold case that keeps them up at night: the disappearance of seven U.S. Navy planes in 1945...
In the dead of night, the team heads to a remote target they believe to be the long-lost Marine Sulphur Queen. This massive tanker disappeared in 1963 with a crew of 39 and is one of the most iconic missing Bermuda Triangle wrecks. Only a few lifejackets and small pieces of debris are ever found. Did it sink because of an explosion caused by its superheated cargo, a flaw built into the very heart of this massive ship, or the deadly storms that appear out of nowhere in this remote stretch of water?
The team investigates a large wooden shipwreck that could be one of the Bermuda Triangle area's earliest victims: the long-lost SS D.H. Mount. Just six months after the end of the Civil War, the Mount departs New York with 22 pro-Union politicians charged with rebuilding the post-war political structure of Confederate Florida. The ship vanishes in a stretch of water that will later be recognized as the Bermuda Triangle. The politicians had all received death threats ahead of the voyage. The wreck shows signs of a fire. Were diehard Confederate saboteurs to blame or could a steam engine explosion explain the damage? Or did an anomaly of the Bermuda Triangle doom this ship? The team recovers a series of artifacts that they hope will tell the tale...
Are modern-day pirates prowling the Bermuda Triangle in search of victims? The team takes on the twisted case of a missing luxury boat called the Saba Bank lost in the vicinity of the Bermuda Triangle in 1974. This case was blamed on the Bermuda Triangle, but new leads suggest even deadlier forces were responsible. Divers Mike Barnette and Jimmy Gadomski consult their map of secret wrecks and dive in search of the Saba Bank, while the land investigators unravel alleged connections to the Mafia and cartel villains...
The team has secret intel on a wreck that might be a legendary 1930s disappearance: the champion racing yacht known as Ingomar. Lured by a strange light, the Ingomar's seasoned crew smashes into an unseen obstacle, even though their charts show clear water. The crew escapes in a lifeboat only for the Ingomar to vanish behind them, never to be seen again. Now wreck hunters Mike Barnette and Jimmy Gadomski have found an artifact-rich wreck site that could be the long-lost yacht. Meanwhile, the rest of the team investigates the strange phenomena that lurk in the Graveyard of the Atlantic. What doomed the Ingomar?
The team zeroes in on the island of Bermuda--namesake of the Triangle--and one of the most infamous mysteries that helped establish the dark reputation of these waters. Two British passenger planes, nearly identical, named the Star Tiger and the Star Ariel vanished in the 1940s. They disappear one year apart, nearly to the day. Now, the team is targeting an unidentified wreck that might be Star Ariel, which vanished with 20 passengers and crew onboard. The pilot reported strange radio interference just before the plane dropped off radar. Was the Star Ariel caught up in a strange Bermuda Triangle trap, and is there a connection to the Star Tiger?
The team has a chance to finally solve the case of the USS Cyclops. Missing since 1918 with 309 sailors, this 500-foot freighter represents the single deadliest Bermuda Triangle loss. Now the divers race two hurricanes to investigate a new target further north than previously considered, while the land team tries to answer century-old mysteries: How did Cyclops sprint so quickly through the Bermuda Triangle? Was something chasing her? Or did her unusual cargo drive the crew insane?
The team unveils the greatest mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle: its most perplexing vanished ships and planes, and the strange and powerful forces said to be behind the Triangle's deadly reputation. Wreck divers Mike Barnette, Jimmy Gadomski, and team investigators Jason Harris, David O'Keefe, and Wayne Abbot provide inside information on what may have happened to the most famous missing ships and planes, their plans to solve the mysteries, and how their quest for answers will continue to new heights...
