Is it true that Compasses malfunction in the Bermuda Triangle?
No. A reference article states that no unusual magnetic anomalies have been found in the Bermuda Triangle and that compass variation there is natural, while a skeptics source notes the Coast Guard finds nothing extraordinary in the area. Popular legend books repeat the compass-malfunction story but do not verify it.
