All Crop Circles are Man made

:aliens1: Crop Circles - Alien Messages Or Human Hoaxes?

I have never for a minute believed Crop Circles were anything but man made and the more complex the more I became convinced I was right. A few years back I was talking with researcher Dr. Simeon Hein of the Institute for Resonance in Colorado for the second time and he had just returned from England and had changed his mind on the subject.
In 2000 he was fairly convinced they were not for the most part man made but reversed his opinion a few years later.

I have interviewed a number of people on this subject and some like Linda Moulton Howe speak of them as if they were really UFO related, however I see most paranormal subjects as either self promotion at work or to promote the sale of some item, be it a book video or some trinket.

Crop Circles - Alien Messages Or Human Hoaxes?

Crop circles are patterns created by the flattening of crops (although at least one has been found in Russia using snow and ice); the term was first used by researcher Colin Andrews to describe simple circles he was researching.

However, since the early 90's the circles have evolved into complex geometries, but the term "circle" is still applied when describing these unusual patterns.

Many explanations have been offered on how these circles appear, including the formation by UFOs. However, most of these are believed to be man-made. A study into circle hoaxing (2000) concluded that 80 percent of UK circles were definitely man-made, but this percentage may have increased since that report was published.

Whilst some of the crop circles seen may be the work of UFOs or some other paranormal phenomena, it is quite possible their existence was inspired by earlier reports of UFO landings.

I agree with you that they are a hoax, but I always found this one very interesting, just do the sheer complexity, not only of actually forming the impression in the field, but of the content it contains, which is very similar to the message that Carl Sagan sent in to space.

I don't know why anyone (including aliens) would do this but evidently they have been doing it for at least two millenia.

I wonder what religion the aliens who make the crop circles follow.

In other news, I am glad to see that who ever made that spider crop-circle did an accurate representation of the spiders I saw in my childhood, southern home, in B.F.E North Carolina.

Of course they're fake, screwing with people is fun

If someone flattened my wheat crop causing me to have less money to put food on the table for my family I'd be hopping mad.

Of course crop circles are manmade for God's sake. :roll:

I'd give them compensaion of course

It's like breaking into someone's house to redecorate it and make it nicer or using a fake id to buy alcohol and just give it to a homeless guy

Is that before or after the farmer had you arrested. :mrgreen:

As far as the really large pictographs in Peru, that can be done using ingenuity available during that time period. I think I could do it now with the aid of a compass. Did anyone know Von Däniken the author of Chariot of the Gods has a criminal record?

Von Däniken's run-ins with the law started at an early age. In the 1960s, Von Däniken worked in hotels and restaurants across Switzerland, and then he was convicted of fraud, serving a prison sentence for defrauding his boss at one hotel. In 1967, soon after Chariots of the Gods was published he was arrested and charged by Interpol with fraud and tax evasion for non-payment of US$14,000.00. On behalf of the prosecution, he was ordered by the Court to undergo psychological examinations, and labelled a homosexual, reflecting a time when being homosexual carried a negative stigma. During the investigation, authorities uncovered a large personal debt totaling about US$700,000. Von Däniken was found guilty of embezzlement, and he served more than three years in Swiss prisons. While in prison, he continued writing, and 'Return of the Gods' was subsequently published.

Spider?It's like an ant to me.

Insects such as ants only have six legs. Spiders have eight.

Not all of them are fake, a lot of them can't be explained. I am in to these types of things. Like for example, some are found with the crops health, but still cut, and still Alive, and even a bit healthier than before.

Why destroy that big of an area? No doubt a lot of them are fake, but the more complexes ones have a moment of disbelief to them.



I have a great website to learn more about this type of thing.

With all due respect Ry don't believe everything you read. :roll:

I met a sprightly "alien" in his late sixties, several years ago. His name was Doug Bower.

In 1991, two men from Southampton, England, announced that they had conceived the idea as a prank at a pub near Winchester, Hampshire, during an evening in 1976. Inspired by the 1966 Tully Saucer Nests,[10] Doug Bower and Dave Chorley made their crop circles using planks, rope, hats and wire as their only tools: using a four-foot-long plank attached to a rope, they easily created circles eight feet in diameter. The two men were able to make a 40-foot (12 m) circle in 15 minutes.

The pair became frustrated when their work did not receive significant publicity, so in 1981, they created a circle in Matterley Bowl, a natural amphitheatre just outside Winchester, Hampshire—an area surrounded by roads from which a clear view of the field is available to drivers passing by. Their designs were at first simple circles. When newspapers claimed that the circles could easily be explained by natural phenomena, Bower and Chorley made more complex patterns. A simple wire with a loop, hanging down from a cap—the loop positioned over one eye—could be used to focus on a landmark to aid in the creation of straight lines. Later designs of crop circles became increasingly complicated.
