There are a few theories. One is that pockets of natural gas will occassionally unlodge themselves and suck ships down. Another is that it has its own magnetic field which is also highly unlikely. The myth most likely stems from some form of an ancient legend such as a sea monster dwelling in the area that sank ships. The only reason the Triangle seems to have so many dissapearing ships is because if a ship sinks in it it will get much much more publicity than a ship sinking oh say off the coast of Japan.
----------------------------------
Most likely, the same reason they sink anywhere else. Bad weather, structural failure, on-board explosions or fires... that sort of thing. None of these is more likely to happen in the Triangle. In fact, the Bermuda Triangle is a manufactured mystery. Given the weather and amount of traffic, it is no more dangerous than anywhere else. Reporters have a tendency to misstate how bad off the weather is during vanishings. They'll say the weather was calm during a bad storm, if it makes the vanishing more mysterious. If you really want to know what is going on, get Larry Kusche's book "The Bermuda Triangle Mystery- Solved".
Ships do sink....
methane

You start with a ship or plane and you fly to the Bermuda Triangle and the weather turns BAD!
The Ship called Atalanta was lost in the Bermuda Triangle.
The Bermuda Triangle is a triangular area that has points at Cuba, Bermuda isles and Florida. There are different ideas as to how exactly ships and planes sink sink in this are. People speculate that it is the USAF, natural occurences, sea monsters and aliens.

there is no way to know this.

The answer that the first person gave to this question was foolish. There no way to prevent being sucked in the Bermuda triangle because the pressure is so high that even planes sink.
