Infamous disappearances of ships and aircrafts, stories of lives lost — they’re all part of the legend of the 500,000-square-mile expanse of the Atlantic Ocean known as the Bermuda Triangle. In this one-hour special, National Geographic Channel explores the area’s ominous reputation by draining the water from it to see what exactly lies below the surface of the mythical triangle. With the aid of data from sophisticated sonar surveys, see what the ocean floor looks like below the Bermuda Triangle. Witness what strange geological features will be revealed and whether they will shed light on the mysterious occurrences that have been documented within the boundaries of this area of ocean.
The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil’s Triangle, is a loosely defined region in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean, where a number of aircraft and ships are said to have disappeared under mysterious circumstances. According to the US Navy, the triangle does not exist, and the name is not recognized by the US Board on Geographic Names. Popular culture has attributed various disappearances to the paranormal or activity by extraterrestrial beings. Documented evidence indicates that a significant percentage of the incidents were spurious, inaccurately reported, or embellished by later authors. In a 2013 study, the World Wide Fund for Nature identified the world’s 10 most dangerous waters for shipping, but the Bermuda Triangle was not among them

Roy Burch was a celebrity in Bermuda, a headline-making Olympian featured in roadside advertisements across the picturesque island. In the pool, no one could catch him. But against the world’s best, Bermuda’s greatest swimmer was outmatched.
“As a Bermudian,” he says, “I’ve always been made to feel small, and I don’t like that.”
So in 2011, he moved to Charlotte to discover how good he could be … read more here

“I was honored to have been able to capture the images for Heather Nova’s latest album, The Way it Feels. I was lucky enough to have also shot the art for the last two albums as well, but I have to say, I never take it for granted that I will photograph her again as Heather is constantly reinventing herself and a fresh perspective is always important. This time, I knew she was going with a very cool designer, Tarik Mikou, for the album cover and booklet art, and when he sent her his ideas for the type of photography he was looking for, we didn’t know if my shooting style would fit the bill. He was looking for edgey, and I tend to lean more towards dreamy if I had to pigeon hole myself. So I asked Heather if we could do an experimental shoot first, to see if we could even get close to making Tarik’s vision a reality. When we sent him the unedited shots from that shoot, he was thrilled so we did another session, this time with hair and make up. I love trying new things and Heather is so easy to work with that it was just a blast playing with shadows and light to get some cool shots. Heather is the perfect muse. And I am so honoured to have been given the chance once again to capture her in a way that can hopefully complement her music.”

About Sacha
Sacha Blackburne is a lifestyle photographer based in Bermuda. She says on her blog
I long to capture the essence of the people in my photographs – I want to show who they really are, and what they really feel – not just what they looked like that day.
I wasn’t sure what to say
Big ocean wave came rolling in that day
All the way it came from Africa,
A deeper blue I never saw
And all the things that I forgot that I could feel
I wasn’t sure what to give
Truth can be hard to swallow but that’s the way I live
I often am misunderstood
Make a mess of things
When I search for good
I walk right in when I know I should just walk away
Give me a reason, give me a rhyme
Bury it deep Tell me I’m wrong or that I’m insane in the sands of time
I’m looking for truth, not someone to blame
All I want is to live as clear as Sea Glass
Now that I’m standing on the sand
Got all these pretty pieces sifting through my hands
I’ll pick them up and I’ll let them go
Let the water in, I’ll let it flow
So many things I’ll never know, I’ll never know….
Give me a reason, give me a rhyme
Bury it deep in the sands of time
Tell me I’m wrong or that I’m insane
I’m looking for truth, not someone to blame
All I want is to live as clear as Sea Glass
Now I’m standing on the shore of the Atlantic
With these seeds of love I planted
Under this majestic sky, why do I still wonder why?
All my hopes and indecisions, clouds that shimmer in the distance
Why do I still wonder why? Why?
