ReplyDeletewhat makes the disapperance of Amelia Earhart so mysterious and intriguing is that nobody could find Amelia and her partner struggling for help. But, researchers do have hypothesis of what had happend to them both. The hypothesis i most believe is that she and her partner went to the nearest island named Nikumaroro, where researches had found makeup, campfiren debris, pocket knifes, and other things that could have been Amilias. this is why i belive they both stayed alive for a little longer then died naturally on the island.
ReplyDeleteThe disappearance of Amelia Earheart is so strange and mysterious because there are so many theories of how Amelia Earheart disappeared. It is also very intriguing because Amelia Earheart was a skilled pilot and somehow crashed landed somewhere in the ocean.My personal theory on Amelia Earhearts disappearence is that her plane ran out of fuel and she had to do an emergency landing on some uninhabited island in the middle of no-where
ReplyDeleteWhat makes it so misterious about her dissaperance is that no one could find a body or a plane. If she did not die, some believe some of the japanese could have captured all who was aboard. I think she did die but since the ocean is so big, they did`nt have the time to find her body or any of the plane parts.
ReplyDeleteI agree and disagree with NickB2. I agree that the Japanese could have captured Amelia Earheart and her navigator. My opinion is different, however. I think that the plane had engine failure and they had crashed into the land of Nikumaroro. There were actually evidences of human life. They have found makeup, cans, and lots of more objects. Therefore, they tried to survive there for the remainders of their days.
DeleteWhat makes the disapearence of Amelia Earhart so strange and mysterious is that no one knows for sure what happened. There have been many theories to what could have happened to Amelia and her plane. The intriguing part of this mystery is that there have been many findings of tools and pieces to the plane found near the island where it is thought the plane had crashed. I think that Amelia's plane ran out of fuel and she crashed on an island. She then tried to survive with what little she had and eventualy died.
ReplyDeleteThe dissppearence of Amelia Earhart is so mysteryious because after many decades researchers still are not completely sure where she went. Many theories have been made as researchers found man-made objects on a nearby island. That is what I believe as researchers found glass,make-up and countless other objects. These could belong to Amelia as they found a special ointment that is known that she used.
ReplyDeleteAmelia Earhart disappeared in 1937. She was a pilot, and the 16th female pilot at that. My personal theory to her strange disappearance is that she landed on the Gardner Island ( also known as Nikumaroro). The reason is that man-made remnants and possibly human bones were found on the island. She and Fred Noonan,her navigator, could have tried to survive. Also,a man made giant item was found in the ocean close by. Therefore, I believe she became a castaway and survived for a time on Gardner Island.
ReplyDeleteAmelia Earhart's disappearance was very strange and mysterious because she had already navigated both of the oceans she was flying over. What makes Amelia Earhart's disappearance so intriguing is that she was an excelent flyer. Amelia's plane must have had damage or mechanical failure in the engines. Thus forcing her plane to crash land in the Pacific Ocean, or on a remote island in the Pacific.

ReplyDeleteThere are multiple unexplained events that make Amelia Earhart's disappearence so strange and mysterious. First, she was trying to circumnavigate the globe from the equator and mysteriously vanished off the face of the earth, leaving very little behind. Also, people have theorised all kinds of explanatioins for her dissapearence and none of them have solid evidece. My personal theory on this event, is that Amelia's plane ran out of fuel and she and her co-piolet was deserted on a stranded island after her plane crashed.
ReplyDeleteThe disappearance of Amelia Earhart was definitely mysterious but I wouldn't say it was actually that strange. I mean sure, two people are flying and they crash, it happens. Does that make it strange or mysterious? No. They were flying so long that yeah it is completely possible that they ran out of gas while flying, their plane crashed and they went to the nearest island. Researchers even found make shift tool, her makeup, pocket knives and bone fragments. No I don't believe she was actually a spy, that's ridiculous. No one had been to the island she was at so how could the government rescue her, they had no communication at all! i think they crashed stayed on the island and died there. her plane near the island and the evidence on it explains it all.

ReplyDeleteThe disapperance of Amelia was very strange and mysterious. Because of the fact that she was a pilot that flew alot and then all the sudden she crashes. I get that everyone makes mistakes or mechanical errors happen all the the time. Then it would also be exciting to see if the remiains they found belonged to Amelia. Which sounds like it did and the bones they found seems like a resonable fact that she crashed found a safe place to be and tryed to survive.
ReplyDeleteWhat makes Amelia Earhart's disappearance so strange and mysterious is that still after many decades no one really knows what happened to her or where she went. I believe that she had crashed her plane, swam to an island and tried to survive there.
ReplyDeleteI believe the disappearance of Amelia Earhart was strange and mysterious because even today, no one knows exactly what happened. Her disappearance is intriguing because no evidence of her plane or body has been found until now. People have many different theories of the fate of Amelia and her navigator, Fred Noonan. These theories include one that says Amelia Earhart was working for the US government and flew to Japan to work as a spy. I don't think this is true. I think that Amelia's plane partially landed in the water, so part of her plane broke off into the water. Then, I think Emilia and Fred swan to shore and lived there until they passed away. Evidence of the parts of the plane in the water and traces of her make up on shore prove this theory.
ReplyDeleteWhat makes the diappearance of Amelia Earhart so strange and mysterious is the fact that they really dont have a set in stone theory about why they crashed and where they landed but there are many reasonable options. The diappearance of Amelia Earhart is so intriging because mysteries always grabs a huge auidences attention. My personal theory on the matter is that they crashed into the ocean, survived the crash, and lived on the island until they died later on. They survived on the island by using what they had from the crash on the deserted island.
ReplyDeleteWhat makes the disappearance of Amelia Earhart so strange and mysterious is that we don't know why or how Amelia Earhart, Fred Noonan, and there plane disappeared. The disappearance of Amelia Earhart is so intriguing because we don't know how they disappeared and it makes us want to figure out why. My theory on why they disappeared is that they crashed into the ocean, lived on an island with what they had, and died a couple weeks later.
ReplyDeleteWhat makes the disappearance of Amelia Earhart so strange and mysterious is because they never really found where they crashed. The reason why Amelia Earheart's disappearance was so intriguing is that to this day we still don't know what exactly happened to them and maybe never will. My personal theory on this matter is that they died when it crashed into the ocean.
ReplyDeleteThe thing that makes the disappearance of Amelia Earhart so strange is that the wreckage was never found. This is intriguing because you have no idea what happened. I personally believe that she did work for the government because the government does secret stuff anyway. We would have no idea what really happened but I truly believe that she did spy on the Japanese and worked for the government.
ReplyDeleteWhat makes Amelia Earhart's disappearance so mysterious and strange is the amount of how theories there are to explain her disapperance. Since nothing has been set in stone, for a conclusion, many theories exist for the reasoning of why Ms. Earhart and her copilot disappeared with out much evidence for researchers to base anything off. Therefore many people have begun to create their own beliefs. Amelia's disappearance is so intriging becasue of the lack of information, this causes mystery to form. Mysterious stories always grab a large crowds' attention, and those people almost always want answers. Personally, my theory is that Ms. Earhart and her copilot did crash on the deserted island and survived, until they later on when they died. They survived using what materials they could manage to gather from the accident. There also seems to be enough evidence to support my theory, due to researchers researching the island and the waters that surround it.
ReplyDeletethe disappearance of Amelia Earhart is especially mysterious. i believe that amelia and her co-pilot knew their were low on gas and aimed for the nearby island. it is possible they over shot the landing and landed in the water. They then swam (while wounded from shrapnel) to the not so far island. Living for about 3 months then dying of disease or famine making constant distress calls (ex. SOS). This is how I believe Amelia Earhart had dealt with the crash landing. strange and mysterious indeed.
ReplyDeleteAmelia Earhart's disappearance was very strange and mysterious. Its hard for someone to disappear in an airplane and someone not find them. Usually some remains would be found. They have so many different theories, but i believe that her plane crashed in the water but her and her navigator swam to shore somehow. There's evidence to show there were human remains on one of the islands and things like pocketknife fragments, cosmetics, and shells that had been cut open.
ReplyDeleteWhat made the dissapearance of Amelia Earheart so mysterious was that after the plane had crashed, nobody could find their crashed location and their remains. It was so intriguing because they found remains on an island but they don't know if it is the remainders of Amelia and her navigator. Many people thought that they had crashed into the sea because of errors, but i think it was because of the engine failure that they crashed into the island and they tried to survive there for their last remainder of days
ReplyDeleteAlemia Earharts disapperence is so mysterious and strange is that nobody knows what happended to her and her navigator. There have been many theries but nobody knows what truley happend to Amelia. What i think happened to Amelia Earhart is that she crash landed into the water swam to a near by island becasue researches say that they found a pocket nife a cosmetic jar all things Amelia would use, so i think she and her navigator crashed landed on the island hoping to find help and then dieing on that island when until her death was recorded and we know of Amelia Earhart disapperaring of strange and mysterious causes.
ReplyDeleteThe part that makes Amelia Earhart's dissppearance so strange and mysterious is that no living person is able to say how and where she actually landed. However, the theories that have been thrown out there are likely. Amelia Earhart's disappearance is intriging because mysteries have and always will be a part of American history. My personal theory tends to change by the more information given so I do believe that she survived the crash, but didn't live very long on the nearby island.
ReplyDeleteAmelia air hearts dissapearince isnt strange. It is simply a person that crashed and got stranded on an island. It states that they found human objects around the supposed site of the landing. Researchers also found her landing gear and traces of a bon fire next to the shore. The most interesting fact is that researchers also found is a brand of ointment commonly worn by Amelia Eirheart. This proves that they survived the landing but died on the deserted island.
ReplyDeleteI think what makes the disappearance of Amelia Earhart so strange and mysterious is that the fact that she just dissapeared so suddenly. She was flying across an ocean, and never returned. Amelia's disappearance is so intriging because everyone wants to know what happened. It sort of grabs the readers attention. There are many theories on the matter, such as the thought of them being Japenese spys and crashing it on purpose. My personal theory on this story, is that they were flying over the ocean, they crashed the plane accidently in the ocean, lived on the island for a few following days, then died on the island.
ReplyDeleteI believe that the disapperanceof Amelia Earhart is very strang and mysterious because now one knows what realy happend to Amelia Earhart and alot of people say different things on how she disapeard.
ReplyDeleteWhat makes the disappearance of Amelia Earhart so strange and mysterious is that they really haven't proved even what happened to the plane. I mean there have been many plane crashes but these people are intrested on where Amelia and Fred went, not really on what happened to the plane. What makes it so intriguing is that this is another mystery that hasn't been solved for a long time. My personal theory is that her plane had a mechanical failure and she went to the nearest island to survive until her death.
ReplyDeleteThe disappearance of Amelia Earhart has always been strange and mysterious from the fact that they disappeared without a trace-or so we thought. I am for the theory that they landed on that island and they died there. There was a documetary on History that I once watched about evidence found that they could have landed in the Martial Islands and became captives of the Japanese, but I didn't watch the whole thing, and it was a while ago.
ReplyDeleteThe story of Amelia Earhart is so strange and mysterious because of the fact where it talks about how Amelia mysteriously disappeared and nobody found her body.
ReplyDeleteThe dissapearance of Amelia Earhart is so strange because no reamians have been found about her untill now. I thought there would be more definite theroies with todays advanced technology but there isn't any set for sure things. I think that Amelia crashed with her navigator becouse they ran out of fuel. They most likely swam to the shore of the island and starved to death because they couldnt find any food on the island.
ReplyDeleteAmelia Earhart was the 16th woman to be issued be pilot's license. she was the first girl to try to fly across the pacific ocean. only 250 miles away from land then something happened to her plane and she crashed into the ocean. no one knows what happened to her, if she ran out of gas or whatever happened. the only thing we know is that she did not make and did not servive.
ReplyDeleteWhat makes the disappearance of Amelia Earhart so strange, mysterious, and intriguing is that her plane disappeared and that she ran out of gas which was the cause. Also, she disappeared on June 2nd, 1937 and she was legally dead on January 5th 1939. Some therorists say that she disappeared and changed her name and started a new life. My theory on this is that Amelia and the guy set this plan up. They went into the Pacific Ocean and realized they were running out of gas and ejected out of the plane. Next, they swam to shore and survived but then died on an island and were never found.
ReplyDeleteAmelia Earhart`s disappearance is extremely strange, and most defiantly mysterious. It is so intriguing due to the fact that she seemed to simply vanish, with no evidence as to what happened to her for decades. Some theories suggest that she was a spy and crashed while on a mission. While this is surely a possibility, and interesting to think about, I think other evidence outweighs this idea. Other believe that she made it back to the U.S., changed her name and lived a long and happy life. This could be true, but why would anyone who was so beloved, and worked so hard, want to give everything up that they had ever achieved? Personally, I think that she ran out of fuel and crashed on a secluded island. It would be a reasonable thing to happen,and everything fits together. Physical evidence was found on the beach, things like landing gear and cosmetics, similar to the ones Amelia used. The quest to find out what really did happen to Amelia Earhart is an ongoing mission to this day.
ReplyDeleteThe disappearance of Amelia Earhart was a very strange and mysterious situation. Researchers had made theories to what happened, the one that I believe the most is that Amelia Earhart's plane crashed and Amelia and her navigator safely got to the nearby island called Nikumaroro. With all the supplies that they had, I think they survived and naturally died. Researchers found things like makeup, campfiren debris, pocket knifes, and bones. That is my theory of what happened to Amelia Earhart.
