Top 10 Unsolved Mysteries
1.
John F. Kennedy’s Assassination
Majority of the Americans are convinced that Lee Harvey Oswald could not have acted alone and that the way they explained it was not how the assassination could have been carried out. This unsolved mystery remains the darkest and most vivid stain on the record of American Intelligence and American democracy, or the lack of it since it is alleged that the President could have been done away with for going against the wishes of those in power. Could the President have been killed by the military and Industrial Mob or by some other force for his alliance with the infamous Marilyn Monroe? We will never know. JFK’s assassination, trial of Oswald, and the subsequent events have been a subject of many detective novels and movie.

The 20th century saw dozens of ships and aircrafts disappeared into the Bermuda triangle, situated in the North Atlantic Ocean.

Due to this strange phenomenon this particular area on the map has been named the ‘Devil’s Triangle’. Some people have even associated religious connotation with the place.
3.

Held in the cathedral of St. John the Baptist in turn, Italy, this piece of linen cloth has imprinted on it the image of a man who probably died of cruxification. It has been long believed to be the cloth Jesus Christ was buried in after his cruxification. Since there is no proof of this latter belief, the shroud still remains an explained piece of linen. Scientists have failed to explain how or when the image could have been imprinted on the linen.

In the late 1888, the air of London was thicker for a series of murders that terrorized its residents. The person committing these murders was given the nickname of ‘Jack the Ripper’ because of the brutal style of his killings. In modern times there has been some speculation that the murderer was Prince Albert Victor or some other notable doctor but till this very date the police have not been able to identify the murderer that killed all those prostitutes in a most vicious manner.

Megalithic ruins situated on Salisbury Plain, England, this is a combination of earth, timber and stone structures that have been re-modeled over the past 1400 years. What exactly could have motivated those people to build these structures? Could it be religion? The answers to these haven’t been found and yet the Stonehenge continues to be a main tourist attraction for the sheer fact that these structures are majestic in their appearance and undoubtedly religious.
8.
The Heist, Jump and Disappearance of Dan Cooper
On a one-way flight from Seattle to Portland, Dan Cooper demanded to be given over $ 200, 000 on the threat of setting off a bomb. He jumped off the plane with just a parachute and with the amount of money he demanded. That was the last time anyone ever saw Dan Cooper. Did he survive his jump? If he did, where did he go? And why did he not ask for a helmet before he jumped! Even the intelligence community hasn’t been able to answer these questions till this day.

This is a low-pitched sound heard across North America, U.K and throughout Europe especially. It cannot be caught on microphones, its source and nature is still a mystery.

In 1997, Congress directed scientists to discover the reason for this ‘hum’ sound around a residential area in New Mexico but to no avail.

Zaphod26 Mar 10 at 01 56 amYour picture of the Loch Ness Monster is an Elephant bathing - lame. Jack the Ripper has been proven to have been a Physician from Pennsylvania. Stonehenge has no timber and it was created as an Astral calendar to mark the solstices The "Bermuda Triangle" is not a triangle, it has been marked out by 3 compass points. Latest research shows huge undersea C02 emissions could be responsible for carbonating the ocean (ships won t float on air) and downing planes (C02 is less dense than air)
