It’s one of the most dangerous and mysterious places on Earth. It’s home to dozens of sunken ships, plane crashes, and dead people. It’s known as the Bermuda Triangle and is shrouded in mystery. So, what would happen if we decided to dump our trash into it? Where would it go?

    If we dumped our garbage in the Bermuda Triangle it would go to another dimension . But there are Aliens there . Eventually they would get mad and send it back and we would get in trouble .

    HUUUUUUU!!!!!?????
    Wouldn't it be as same as damping trash into the ocean!?
    I mean Bermuda triangle is literally just a designated area/zone on the ocean!!!!!?

    Oh man this channel really is getting desperate… it is extremely getting obvious
    Change the subject maybe guys! You don't need to follow this channel namesake forever!
    Throw that "what if" off and do something new! people will surely be keep watching if therea content(the content doesn't even need to have value anyway regarding how dumb people and youth has become in 21st century)

    I guess this is just a total joke, seeing as how it’s a myth. Yes there’s unexplainable things have happened, but so have they everywhere around the world. That area just happens to have one of the highest concentrations of water and air traffic. So it makes sense it would have more incidents. Oh now he says it 🤦‍♂️

    Bermuda Triangle is where some people challenge themselves to survive in 24 hours, and where the sun shine less and where vehicles drown out, also, it's a place which has waves or tsunamis from air bombs.

    In islam we are thought that the bamurda triangle is the kingdom of the devil (Satan) Making it the most strongest kingdom on this planet which no any other creation on this Earth can temper with the area! simple.

    Actually I had a theory that the Bermuda Triangle is a black hole surviving in the earth…but then I figured that if it was a black hole, then why didn't it suck all those water…I wonder what would happen in that mysterious monstrous everything-eating creature…or a monster?!👹👹

    These videos are interesting, and some are hilarious, such as the one about everyone farting at same time. Too much trash everywhere, really. I live in a small town, and would hate to see the amount of trash that leaves here each week. A town of 80 people would have a trash service.
