Just watched a science channel report on the Bermuda Triangle which happened to show vast fields of methane hydrate on the ocean floor, just lying on the surface ready for harvest. And it show how if the methane is disturbed from the bottom and begins to rise it changes its form from a solid to a gas.

This was in reference to a theory that some ships disappeared in the Triangle because they may have been enveloped by a giant methane gas bubble which would not only kill their sailors, but sink the ship by displacing water under their keels with gas.
