===Paranormal explanations=== Triangle writers have used a number of supernatural concepts to explain the events. One explanation pins the blame on leftover technology from the mythical lost city or state of [[Atlantis]]. Sometimes connected to the Atlantis story is the submerged rock formation known as the [[Bimini Road]] off the island of [[Bimini]] in the Bahamas, which is in the Triangle by some definitions. Followers of the purported psychic [[Edgar Cayce]] take his prediction that evidence of Atlantis would be found in 1968 as referring to the discovery of the Bimini Road. Believers describe the formation as a road, wall, or other structure, but the Bimini Road is of natural origin.<ref name="CSI, 2004">{{cite journal |first=Eugene A. |last=Shinn |url=http://www.csicop.org/si/2004-01/geologists-adventures.html |title=A Geologist's Adventures with Bimini Beachrock and Atlantis True Believers |journal=[[Skeptical Inquirer]] |via=[[Committee for Skeptical Inquiry]] |location=Amherst, New York |date=January 2004 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070406124939/http://www.csicop.org/si/2004-01/geologists-adventures.html |archive-date=6 April 2007}}</ref> Some hypothesize that a parallel universe exists in the Bermuda Triangle region, causing a time/space warp that sucks the objects around it into a parallel universe.<ref>{{cite web |last=Michel |first=Desmarquet |title=Disappearances of People and Ships in the Bermuda Triangle May Be Caused by a Warp Sucking Them Into a Parallel Universe |url=https://www.chinasona.org/Thiaoouba/Bermuda-triangle.html |access-date=7 January 2022}}</ref> Others attribute the events to [[UFO]]s.<ref>{{cite web |last=Booth |first=Billy |title=UFO Hovers over Ship in the Bermuda Triangle |url=http://ufos.about.com/od/classicufocases/a/bermudatriangle.htm |publisher=[[Dotdash Meredith|About.com]] |access-date=13 January 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081008115012/http://ufos.about.com/od/classicufocases/a/bermudatriangle.htm |archive-date=8 October 2008 |date=29 June 2008 |url-status=usurped}}</ref><ref name="Cochran, 2003">{{cite journal |last=Cochran-Smith |first=Marilyn |year=2003 |title=Bermuda Triangle: dichotomy, mythology, and amnesia |journal=[[Journal of Teacher Education]] |publisher=[[SAGE Publications]] |location=Thousand Oaks, California |volume=54 |doi=10.1177/0022487103256793 |page=275 |issue=4 |s2cid=145707847}}</ref> [[Charles Berlitz]], author of various books on anomalous phenomena, lists several theories attributing the losses in the Triangle to anomalous or unexplained forces.<ref name="ReferenceB"/>
