Plane crash in mid-air
I wouldn’t say that we rule this one out, an unlikely possibility due to lack of evidence, however the most logical and realistic as well. Due to some fault in the plane, fire in the turbines or something, it is possible that the plane either crashes somewhere or exploded in the mid-air. Either way, there should be debris. Since no debris has actually been found in 4-5 days, this theory might not be it.
Terrorist Attack
This speculation spread like a wild fire as soon as it was revealed that there were two passengers with fake passports. Now I seriously doubt that a 18 year old Iranian dude was able to not only hijack the plane but make it disappear from the face of the earth! Well no terrorist claims have appeared as of yet anyway but this theory was worth looking into. I am pretty sure that even terrorists worldwide are discombobulated with this mystery.
North Koreans
If nothing makes sense, blame it on the North Koreans. Twitter audience in a mass feels that a North Korean missile could have hit the plane. Well obviously even if the missile manages to go un-detected by radars all around, the collision between the two would result into an explosion = debris. The only reason I brought up the North Koreans is because them getting linked to this is a clear indication that their image is beyond reparable in the international community.

Vortex / Portal / New Bermuda Triangle
Plane just disappears out of nowhere, where could it possibly be? Some say that the plane could have flown into some sort of portal. Sure it’s too much of sci-fi thinking for some, but for those who actually believe in such portals and rule out plane crashing theory, this is one possibility. Or maybe a new Bermuda Triangle could be behind this?
Alien Abduction
It’s a simple matter of believing in UFOs or not. Those who believe in extraterrestrials and Area-51 theories are widely promoting and entertaining this one. Sucking a huge plane like this one into a flying saucer may not be possible, but tethering it to some technology beyond our human capability could be? Alien abductions have been reported before in various parts of the world, but abducting an airplane altogether…?

Eerie Disappearance
Chinese IM, QQ had displayed couple of missing passengers online on the app hours after the takeoff. It is said that some of the relatives were able to call on the numbers as well after the disappearance however none of them were answered. So does this mean they are still alive somewhere because whatever happened to them had still managed to preserve their cellphones? Some say all of this is supernatural, the entire situation is shady in itself. There might be forces at work which are beyond our understanding, and until the plane’s crash isn’t confirmed, this eerie disappearance is always going to be entertained as a theory.
Grand Illusion
It got me thinking, what if the plane never took off? Let me rephrase it, what if the plane with the passengers never took off? I don’t know how to make this theory any rational to you all but humor me for a second here. What if, there is a grand organization behind this. Not our usual terrorists but something like Illuminati or even greater, influential and un-exposed?
Flight MH370 replied "All right, roger that" to a radio message from Malaysian air control, authorities said. – BBC
Communication was lost minutes after it crossed Malaysian waters and entered Vietnamese air control perimeters. No may-day signal by the pilot was ever sent. What if the Malaysian and Vietnamese air traffic monitors were compromised as the fake plane flew to its nearest location. Now I am not suggesting that Malaysia is behind this but what if those passengers are still alive and kept somewhere in Kuala Lumpur itself? Why? I don’t know. But God knows with so many theories flying around, this also could be it.
So above were couple of theories which are pretty popular. It is disturbing that we are entertaining ourselves with these scenarios, imagine being one of the relatives of the missing passenger and put yourself into their shoes. But as humans, we are curious, so cast your vote below and comment with what you think? Maybe post a theory of your own.
