Bermuda Triangle & Coral Castle

Researcher and investigator Joe Bullard returned for a discussion on anomalies of the Bermuda Triangle, and an update on mysterious Coral Castle and its creator Edward Leedskalnin. The anomalous 'Triangle' typically thought to be bound by the coasts of Florida, Puerto Rico and Bermuda, may actually extend up further along the Atlantic, he noted. Some 1,000 planes and ships have disappeared in the region in the last 25 years.

Bullard recounted a number of cases, going all the way back to 1492. Columbus wrote in his log book of a "flickering candle" that circled his ship. The UFO came straight down and smashed into the ocean and then was observed circling their ship from underwater. In 1970, Bruce Gernor was flying a small plane near Andros Island and became engulfed in a bizarre cloud. When he came out of the cloud, he was over Miami-- having made a 30 minute flight in 3 just minutes. Some type of time warp appeared to have taken place, said Bullard, who added that he believes there's an underwater UFO base between Florida and Bermuda.

In the third hour, he reviewed the history of Coral Castle. Located in Homestead, Florida, the castle and its gardens feature thousands of tons of coral rock that Leedskalnin, a frail man who weighed just 100 pounds, carved into artistic yet functional objects. It's possible that Leedskalnin secretly harbored the ability to levitate the large stones, he commented. Bullard said he'd spoken to a woman whose father had been one of the teens who'd claimed to have seen Leedskalnin float the stones.
