Scientific Reasons
1. Agonic Lines
One of the explanations is based on magnetism. Friends, the thing is that the North Pole of the Earth and the magnetic North Pole, are two distinct points. So when you look towards North on a compass, the compass is pointing towards the magnetic North Pole.
But the real North Pole is somewhere close by. It is known as the Geographic North Pole. You can see it in this photo.
The difference between the Magnetic and Geographic North Poles. Normally, when people use the compass, as has been done for ages, they take this into account. But there are some areas on the Earth, if you use a compass in these areas, you would find the Magnetic and Geographic North Poles at the same place. The places where this happens are known as the Agonic Lines.
These Agonic Lines shift with time. But for the last 200-300 years, the 0° line has been around or in the area of the Bermuda Triangle. This can basically create confusion.
