The New Yorker once wrote,

The human mind is averse to uncertainty and ambiguity.

From an early age we respond to uncertainty or lack of clarity

by spontaneously generating plausible explanations.

The locations on today's list must terrorize that part of our brain,

because so much of what happens in these triangles is unsolved and unexplained.

But over the years, humans have created reasons for most of it.

Serial killers, UFOs, even bigfoot have taken the blame for a lot of the activity.

What you're about to hear may not be fully criminal,

but it's up to us to determine just how plausible.

Hey, all you weirdos!

Yeah, I would say that's putting it lightly.

Yeah, honestly.

I don't always believe in coincidence.
