Dr Joseph Spencer, biologist: As we travelled further, the dog started … The dog went mad. Why? Why this desert. Why are there no animals, no insects, nothing? It’s unheard of in biology. ibid.
This area of the Algerian desert is known locally as La Zona Morta ... It’s a thousand-square-mile area where there’s hardly life as far back as human record exist. Local tribesmen will tell you that animals don’t live here, and the animals that accidentally enter almost always die trying to escape. ibid. commentary
Here in Algeria all around there’s these unusual events: in Adrar swarms of locusts were showing up regularly [80 km inside the Zone of Death]; in Quargla various species of birds were becoming physically unable to fly and died … large flocks of birds falling from the sky, fish are dying in record numbers, insects are showing up in territories where they’ve never been seen before. But there’s a pattern. ibid. Spencer

Then perhaps there is the most infamous vortex: the Bermuda Triangle. ibid.
It seemed these vortices not only impacted animals and machinery, but their awesome power impacts the world’s weather patterns as well. ibid.
It has to do with the Earth’s magnetics … It wasn’t until I started researching the vortices at the poles that I realised my suspicions were confirmed. ibid. Spencer
Just beneath the surface he found a blue-coloured substance. Running a Geiger-counter over it Dr Spencer found the topsoil had unusually high levels of radiation, just like at the South Pole … What was causing the radiation … The aluminium isotope [26] they are finding on the Earth’s surface and that is abundance at all the vile vortices is somehow reacting with the metal at the Earth’s core to create these magnetic anomalies. ibid.
It’s a GPS system, a way to achieve global positioning … These vortexes post a serious threat to all life on Earth. ibid.
