“It has become a permanent part of my memory, since I have been memorizing it for over 30 years.”

We’re all pretty familiar with the 'infamous' Bermuda Triangle where unexplained activities and disappearances of planes and ships have taken place. These were, in due course, put down in the category of sea lore, sensationalism, or attributed to occultists trying to push their supernatural views of nature. It didn’t seem to matter that most of those reporting them were veteran pilots, shipmasters, and even Coast Guard officers.

Though many of these ‘mysteries’ have been solved, there remain some that defy explanation.

One such is the experience of a veteran pilot Bruce Gernon. The incident ranks as one of the most puzzling and best known encounters in the Bermuda Triangle that happened on December 4, 1970 which was aired on Discovery Channel and on a recent TLC documentary on the Bermuda Triangle.


What happened that day? Here’s an excerpt, some portions of which have been highlighted by me. The full story is in the link below….


My dad and I had been flying our own plane in the Bahamas since 1967, and had made at least a dozen flights to and from Andros Island. Everything seemed normal on that fateful day in December, just after 3 p.m., when my dad and I and Chuck Lafeyette, a business associate, lifted off the runway at Andros town Airport in a brand new Beechcraft Bonanza A36.

It was shortly after takeoff when I noticed an elliptical cloud directly in front of us about a mile away, hovering only about 500 feet above the ocean. It was a typical lenticular cloud, but I had never seen one that low.

Unexpectedly, it caught up and engulfed the Bonanza. After 10 minutes of climbing in and out of this cloud, the airplane finally broke free at 11,500 feet and the sky was clear.

Soon we noticed a cloud building directly in front of us, near the Bimini Islands. It looked a great deal like the cloud that we had just left, except that its top was at least 60,000 feet high. When we came with a few miles of it, we saw that it appeared to emanate directly from the surface of the Earth.

Upon entering the cloud we witnessed an uncanny spectacle. It became dark and black, without rain, and visibility was about four or five miles. There were no lightning bolts, only extraordinarily bright white flashes that would illuminate the entire surrounding area. The deeper we penetrated, the more intense the flashes became, so we made a 135-degree turn to the left and headed due south out of the cloud.

We had been flying for 27 minutes.

Thirteen miles later, I noticed a large U-shaped opening on the west side of the doughnut cloud. I had no choice but to turn and try to exit through the opening. As we approached, we watched the top ends of the U-gap join, forming a hole. The break in the cloud now formed a perfect horizontal tunnel, one mile wide and more than 10 miles long. We could see the clear blue sky on the other side.

We also saw that the tunnel was rapidly shrinking. I increased the engine RPM, bringing our speed to the caution area of 230 miles per hour. When we entered the tunnel, its diameter had narrowed to only 200 feet.

I was amazed at what the shaft now looked like. It appeared to be only a mile long instead of ten-plus as I had originally estimated. Light from the afternoon sun shone through the exit hole and made the silky white walls glow. The walls were perfectly round and slowly constricting. All around the edges were small puffs of clouds of a contrasting gray, swirling counterclockwise around the airplane. We were in the tunnel for only 20 seconds before we emerged from the other end.


When I looked back, I gasped to see the tunnel walls collapse and form a slit that slowly rotated clockwise. All of our electronic and magnetic navigational instruments were malfunctioning. Suddenly the fog started breaking apart, in a weird sort of electronic fashion. Long horizontal lines appeared in the fog on either side of us. The lines widened into slits about four or five miles long. We saw blue sky through them. The slits continued expanding and joined together. Within eight seconds, all the slits had joined, and the gray fog had disappeared.

Beach comes into view.

Then, I saw the barrier island of Miami Beach directly below. The remarkable thing is that we did not come out of the storm 90 miles away from Miami as we should have.We had traveled through 100 miles of space and 30 minutes of time in a little more than three minutes.


So the question is, how could a Beechcraft Bonanza A36 travel 100 miles in 3 minutes when its top speed is just 200mph? That means the aircraft was traveling at an impossible 2000 mph!

So how could that happen? Did he travel through a time warp? Some kind of a magnetic anomaly? An energy vortex? A result of the Hutchison Effect? If such phenomena do exist on Earth, maybe they can be exploited to achieve space/time travel? Or has this already been experimented upon by some secret black project that we are unaware of? Unlikely. But then again, not improbable!

Interesting experience.

My question would be with regards to the fuel on board. If I had such an experience, the first thing I would do upon landing, is have ground crew verify that I was carrying too much fuel for the flight I had just taken.

Its a given that he took off from one airstrip and landed at another. I assume it would also have been logged how much fuel was onboard at takeoff and approximatley how much fuel would be needed for the journey.
I don't know much about aviation rules, so does the amount of fuel left get logged upon landing?

It would be clear proof that something very strange happened if he had far too much fuel onboard to have completed the trip.
Was this part of the story ever covered?

Are these magnetic anomalies on Earth that produce vortices affecting time and space? Note the anomalies in the Bermuda and Devil's Triangles.


Although some may think vortexes and energy grids are pure fantasy, science is beginning to prove that this ancient teaching is actual fact. As can be found in Joseph Jochman's book "Earth, the Crystal Planet" In 1973, three Russians--historian Nikolai Goncharov, construction engineer Vyacheslav Morozov. and electronics specialist Valery Makarov--announced in the science journal for the Soviet Academy of Science, Chemistry and Life, their discovery of a geometric grid pattern which appears to interlink a wide number of natural phenomena into a single planetary system.

Their work wasbased on the findings of American researcher Ivan T. Sanderson who identified what he called ten vile vortexes or electromagnetic energy disturbances located equidistant over the surface of the globe, the so-called Bermuda Triangle nearthe Caribbean and the Devil's Sea off Japan being two of these.

Here's your answer:

Typical flight from Andros Island Town Airport to West Palm Beach.

Flight distance 210 miles:

Total fuel Capacity in Tanks: 80 gals
Typical fuel used: 38 gals in round trip.
(No fuel at Andros Island Bruce always started with full tanks 80 gals.)
Fuel use rate: 15 gals/hr @ 180 mph cruise speed.
Typical fuel normally used: 38 gals in round trip.

But fuel used: 29 gals, 4 Dec 1970

Here's a fascinating analysis:

Thanks for bringing this story back up, I had read it years ago but never forgot. Im not sure what happened to him during that ride, time warp maybe? Or some portal to another dimension?

Either way I believe that many of the official stories trying to explain away the bermuda phenomenon are bull#, there is really something going on in that area
