About this listen
On December 5, 1945, five U.S. Navy Avenger torpedo bombers known as Flight 19 took off from Fort Lauderdale on a routine training mission over the Atlantic. But somewhere over the sea, things began to go terribly wrong. The pilots reported bizarre compass malfunctions, shifting skies, and confusion over their location. Then… silence.
Flight 19 vanished and no trace of the aircraft or the crew members was ever found.
Even more chilling? A rescue plane sent to find them also disappeared, adding 13 more to the list of missing.
This baffling event didn’t just confound military investigators, it ignited one of the most enduring legends in modern folklore: the Bermuda Triangle.
In this episode of Mysteries at Bedtime, we follow the eerie final transmissions of Flight 19, the massive search effort that came up empty, and the strange theories that still swirl nearly 80 years later. Was it a tragic navigational error, a magnetic anomaly… or something else entirely?
Five planes went up. None came back.
And the ocean never gave up its dead.
