Editing Bermuda Triangle — Incident Statistics and Comparative Analysis (section)

=== Comparative Risk Analysis ===
The key question in any statistical analysis of the Bermuda Triangle is whether the rate of incidents is anomalously high compared to other ocean regions of similar traffic density and area.

Multiple analyses — including those by Lloyd's of London, the U.S. Coast Guard, and independent researchers — have concluded that '''the Bermuda Triangle does not have a statistically anomalous incident rate''' when traffic volume is controlled for.

The '''Malacca Strait''' (between Malaysia and Indonesia), the '''South China Sea''', and the '''Philippine Sea''' (known as the Devil's Sea) all have comparable or higher incident rates. None has achieved the same cultural prominence as the Bermuda Triangle.
