Mostly because it makes a good story and increases readership of those who write about it. It probably got its biggest boost when 6 Navy fighters presumably went down in that area (although this is not certain; if you don't know where they vanished, you don't know they did it in the triangle). Similar occurrences elsewhere are not "newsy", and therefore have no myths told about them.
Occam's razor implies that the simplest answer to a dilemma is most likely the correct answer. A "Bermuda Triangle" is far from the simplest answer!
It is unknown what is in the Bermuda triangle but it is very mysterious.
For its mysterious disappearances of planes and ships.
No, It's all a hoax!

The cause is imaginative reporting. The effect is interest and excitement on the part of readers and viewers. The imaginary Bermuda triangle is neither mysterious nor a triangle.
Mysterious Worlds - 2002 Mysteries of the Burmuda Triangle was released on: USA: 2004
That's the easy part to explain, 'mysterious' disappearances sell books. The Bermuda triangle has everything to do with the marketplace and nothing to do with science.
The Bermuda Triangle is a region in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean where a number of aircraft and ships are said to have disappeared under mysterious circumstances.
Countless things have gone through the Bermuda triangle, not many have come out in one piece due to mysterious unexpected storms and strange dissappearances.
There is quite a lot that is known about that part of the world, not much of it is mysterious.
The Bermuda Triangle mystery started when some people noticed that ships were disappearing and decided that there was something mysterious or sinister about it. It was first mentioned in a newspaper article in 1950 and it grew from there.
There is no answer to that question because the Bermuda triangle is a mysterious triangle that make people, boats, aircraft and ect mysteriously disappear and after years and years we have not seen them any more.
