THE BERMUDA TRIANGE: INTO CURSED WATERS

Thursdays from 15 February at 21:00

The Bermuda Triangle is the most notorious stretch of ocean in history, evoking fear and endless fascination. Bounded by Florida, Bermuda and Puerto Rico, these waters have swallowed countless ships and planes and their crews, some vanishing without a trace. In 1945, five U.S.

Navy planes disappeared on the same night, along with a search and rescue plane dispatched to find them. No wreckage was ever found. Reporters dug up accounts of other missing planes and ships, and stories of strange phenomena date back to the voyages of Columbus.

Now, an elite team investigates the Bermuda Triangle with the aid of a secret weapon-- a map, decades in the making, marking the location of unidentified undersea wrecks and anomalies.
