in the late 1970s something truly
amazing began to happen in the crop rich
countryside of England reports of
circles being pressed into standing
crops began to trickle in from the
agricultural areas where much of
England's cereal grains are grown what
are these mysterious and stunning shapes
each tin to the wheat fields of England
and other nations around the world are
these crop circles as they've come to be
known some sort of communication
communication perhaps from another world
some believe these intricate patterns
could be a warning but warning of what
and from whom there are scientists who
tell us that mathematics is the language
of the universe could it be that these
precise geometric designs are in fact
trying to tell us something there were
just simple circles to begin with but as
the frequency of the reports increased
so did the size and intricacy of the
markings in the field what's more in
spite of the fact that some of these
circles were so lard they could only be
fully viewed from high in the air they
had the disturbing quality of appearing
fully formed overnight
what could noiselessly and in the dark
cut huge images into a field of living
grain without damaging the crop and
leave a precise geometric impression
only fully visible from an airplane
there were many people who thought that
question was being answered by other
reports that began coming in at about
the same time reports of silvery discs
flying or hovering low over the open
countryside and apparently these objects
were seen in great numbers
Taleb warminster has gained the
reputation as the UFO capital of england
the sheer number of sightings in that
area since 1964 has been nothing short
of staggering one particular phenomenon
we've been watching with interest has
been the sightings of a spherical object
that seems to glow amber orange or gold
there have been quite a number of
sightings of that kind of this object
but those sightings were often only the
beginning of the mystery
according to eyewitness accounts with
the first rays of the next morning Sun
came astonishing evidence of the
previous night's encounter with the
unknown and so far unexplained someone
or something left an area of the field
flattened pressed down into perfect
geometric shapes the crops are cut
they're not broken
they've been carefully and
systematically swirled flat to the
ground over the years these patterns
have proven to be more than just random
design they are in fact perfect circles
ovals or circles with rings and
sometimes circles rings and satellites
so we are left with the haunting
possibility that if there is a
connection between the circular objects
and the mysterious imprints left in the
fields these so called crop circles may
be the most positive evidence yet of
alien visitors to our planet
but can we be sure the crop circles and
UFOs are related almost from the
beginning
crop circles have appeared in
association with report of aerial
phenomena in the most extreme cases
people have reported beams of light
touching ground level where crop circles
of being later discovered or indeed in
many cases the little balls of orange
light dancing over the field and on on
occasions literally appearing in the
fields these sightings have often been
followed by discoveries of the crop
circles this is of course important
circumstantial evidence of a connection
between the crop markings and the aerial
phenomena but it is only circumstantial
are there other reasons to believe these
symbols in the field were made by UFOs
[Music]
the characteristics of the crop circles
the bent stems and the lack of damage
they are the idea that they'd been
produced by some kind of scanner which
we haven't got which I discovered from
my research and the fact that their
timings related to the UFO activity
all point to an intelligence which is
not human could it be that the answer
will be found in sites like these where
witnesses claimed UFOs have landed there
have been a number of Ground traits that
have been found both here in
Pennsylvania and throughout the world
some of these traces indicate circular
areas ring shaped areas ovals irregular
sites in some cases you have the top of
the area that's been burnt and charred
in some cases soil or plant life has
been removed J Allen Hynek the father of
modern UFO research reported witnessing
a flying saucer landing site in Canada
as though on a signal all five of these
objects rose straight up as though on a
signal and where each one had been
was a nine-foot circle of matted down
grass does this mean that all such
strange circles in the grass have been
created by a UFO or is there another
more likely explanation that would
describe all of these phenomena the
official explanation from the British
government is that these crop circles
are actually formed by the wind well
presumably we are led to believe that
this is a rigorous wind system which
etches the crop circles into the fields
the British government's whirlwind
theory appears to have been accepted by
everybody concerned particularly I think
the public but bearing in mind the no
wave fulfills the mechanism which
actually forms a whirlwind ie they are
performed by thermal inductance and
impairing the daylight and or in the Lee
of a hill in southern England we have
very few hills and most of crop circles
appear at night they simply started 20
odd years ago Mother Nature is not best
known for inventing new phenomena the
wind damage is very obvious it's just a
very random falling of the crop in the
fields there's no particular structure
to it in the genuine ones the geometry
is awesome there may be a half thousand
foot in diameter
it's absolutely flawless it is hugely
accurate wind however is not the only
weather factor that has been suggested
as a natural cause for the formation of
crop circles the BLT research team
incorporated a group of scientists
headquartered in the US but doing
research worldwide on this phenomenon
has a slightly different idea
the most reasonable hypothesis that
we've been able to come up with is that
an atmospheric plasma an air mass of
highly charged electrical particles is
descending down towards the Earth's
surface and when it impacts in a crop
field what you get is in fact a crop
circle a lightning discharge is another
example of a plasma form the Northern
Lights are another one science until
recently did not think that plasmas came
down as low as the Earth's actual
surface but not too many years ago they
discovered sprites and sprites occur at
6 miles up so there's more and more
evidence that perhaps plasmas can in
fact impact the Earth's surface so are
we to believe that a whirlwind a wind of
any kind can form a pattern like this
look at the way the grain is being woven
and these precisely well deformed edges
but no whirlwinds they did these things
and it's absolutely madness to pretend
they did the sheer number of circles
being reported every year has forced
many governments to take note of these
amazing occurrences but what if
governments by and large done to
identify the source of the circles could
it be the entire phenomenon has been the
result of clever fakery and since no one
appears to be gaining great fame and
fortune for their effort why would
anyone bother to do it no one denies
that the artistry and geometric
precision of the crop circles are truly
amazing the answer that seems to elude
every question is how on earth can it be
done on such a grand scale in so many
different places and always in a single
night does this mean that UFOs piloted
by some sort of intelligence are the
only answer actually there are a variety
of other theories about where the crop
markings come from one of the most
inventive explanations suggest the
markings are being made by the satellite
based weapons system developed for the
American Strategic Defense Initiative or
SDI there is a theory that the a that
the SDI program the government
themselves are actually employing
high-tech equipment in space to etch
into the fields of southern England and
other
of the world patterns of this kind there
are two reasons why I don't believe
that's even a starter we had reports of
this phenomena in 1946 in same field as
we have them today we didn't have the
technology about there when they were
first appearing and the second I think
the most major point is that these
patterns could be laid into the fields
of secure areas of military
establishments we have large areas in
central southern England be very simple
to lay them in those areas but these are
appearing in public areas some of them
are actually crossing major highways I
cannot begin to print conceive of any
Western government employing such
technology in such an irresponsible
manner there are even those who have the
put the theory forward that these things
are formed by mating hedgehogs or
porcupines rolling around in the field
are any of these theories any more
credible than the suggestion that the
crop circles are formed by UFOs or some
kind of aerial technology of course all
of them overlook a much simpler
possibility but these patterns just be a
matter of an outright hoax in 1992
Englishmen came forward with a
confession they had they told the world
personally created the crop circles the
men Doug Bower and David Charlie were
even eager to demonstrate their
technique for cameras their method was
simplicity itself put a board under one
foot attached to a rope to hold it
against your foot tie yourself to a
center point and begin walking around in
circles nothing - but if Doug and Dave
did do all of the crop circles as they
claimed how did they get from England to
America to Russia and back how did they
make as many as 15 circles in one night
how did they overlap the stalks without
breaking them if indeed this is the
answer - the origin of the crop circles
how on earth did they do it remember in
the fall of 1991 when these two
gentlemen in southern England were
trotted out on the world
Media is the explanation for the crop
circle mystery two guys who claim they
did it all and for some reason the
worldwide network media accepted that as
an explanation according to them they
had boards which they pushed down across
the grain and they just kept walking
around in circles or rings or whatever
until they've made the shapes they
wanted the whole thing's all a big
practical joke in 1991 Doug and Dave
spoke the story it's the world that they
had claimed all the crop circles and
that they'd invented as it were the
subject but when you actually interview
them and I interviewed them myself on a
couple of occasions those answers don't
necessarily tally up correctly so I
think their story was embellished
somewhat but it's also puzzling that the
media just went for it completely and it
was you know sort of missed you indeed
as it were which I don't don't believe
all their claims there simply is no way
that just a two men could have possibly
constructed all of these patterns
appearing on occasions 15 per day
without getting caught added hoaxers
what ate during the middle of the night
just to make this how on earth would
they have possibly constructed a pattern
like Barbara Castle during the shortest
night of the British summer it would
have taken a team of hoaxers days to
have constructed this and it appeared
simply overnight crop circles like UFOs
or a worldwide phenomenon the US and
Canada Australia Japan they're all over
the place I heard some reports about
them in the Soviet Union as well the
former Soviet Union they're a worldwide
phenomenon and the idea that two old
english bar flies are flying all over
the world creating these things as is
patently ridiculous and there's another
aspect of the circles that suggest shall
we say more comprehensive planning many
crop circle experts say that the
markings in the fields are perfect
geometric figures often accurate to less
than a quarter of an inch my studies
of crop circles of small genuine crop
circles indicated me that they have been
produced very precisely mathematically
and they could not have been produced
naturally well getting designs that the
last 12 years or so this vision interest
to feature in say us a school maths
lesson I feel that as a holistic
geometry appearing in English crop
circle designs that shows us a different
experience of mathematics I mean there's
a lot of evidence to suggest that the
circle acres are possibly more
intelligent than human scientists in
that we found a lot of mathematics and
symbolism in the circles that have
helped to expand our existing knowledge
of science
I spent mathematicians that have looked
at circles analyzed the shapes and
actually bought new theories and new
branches of physics and maths that are
almost the expansion on what we already
know yet is it not possible that all of
the crop markings really are hoaxes even
if Doug Bower and Dave Chorley didn't
make all of the circles might not the
real culprit be hundreds of hoaxers all
over the world people that believe crop
circles were made by human beings are
overlooking some very important features
of the crop circles they are interwoven
and intricately laid not at all the way
that they would be crushed the rhyme if
people stamps them chemical analysis of
grain from a field where a crop circle
had appeared suggests another change
that no human hands could
made crop samples from formations in
England New York State in Vancouver
British Columbia were subjected to some
kind of energy which rapidly heated the
plants even more puzzling are the soil
changes in a large oval shape found
August 1st near BEC Hampton England
analysis by nuclear systems designer
Marshall Dudley and Duke University
student Michael Krause revealed the
presence of 10 unusual and short-lived
radionuclides in the samples that are
not found in normal plants these are not
naturally occurring radio nuclides they
must be synthesized in either cyclotrons
or fusion reactors Dudley and Kuro said
finding such isotopes and soil samples
from a rural England field is profoundly
surprising in 1993 shortly after the
Perseid meteor shower a formation
occurred in Wiltshire England at a place
called sure hill the formation had a
glaze or a coating on some of the plants
and some of the tiny swirls what we
discovered was that this was absolutely
pure iron and we realized that what we
were looking at was a deposit of
probably meteoritic dust since then we
have begun looking in the soils very
aggressively and we find multiple cases
in fact the majority of cases where we
have fifty to a hundred micron diameter
beads these are tiny little spheres of
pure iron deposited inside the crop
circles and not outside every plant on
earth has a distinctive energy pattern
and we have looked closely and compared
the energy pattern of plants inside the
crop circle with those outside as
controls in the general area and this
was a non-conventional plant analysis
process but they nonetheless secured a
starch crystal from a single plant
inside a single crop circle and
discovered that looking through a
microscope the lattice structure was
very different to anything they had ever
seen before most people think they're
applying science to mysteries will
dispel them in this case it's making it
a better mystery than it was to begin
with
applying science to crop circle research
is not attempted by everyone but in the
case of the BLT research team it is
their primary focus the way the work is
done is that we take many hundreds of
samples inside the crop circles and an
equal number or slightly less control
samples outside we then compare the two
groups of plants to see what we see
what we find are in large cell wall pits
in the crop circle plants a lengthened
nodes markedly lengthened sometimes 200
and some percent over the control nodes
we find holes blown out at the nodes
which we never see in the standing crop
outside and we also get germination
abnormalities if the crop markings do
form mathematically precise geometric
symbols and if the plants inside have
been laid in extremely complex patterns
and the organic structure of the plant
has been chemically altered have we
finally found indisputable evidence of
some superhuman force at work or are
there other scientific data to suggest a
more terrestrial and less
extraterrestrial explanation and what if
anything is the official government or
should we say government's reaction to
all of this in 1972 when a wheat field
near warminster England two men
encountered what would become a
worldwide mystery unexplained to this
day they said they saw wheat being
forced down in a clockwise direction by
some force they couldn't see later a
simple elegant circle some 30 feet in
diameter was found in the pressed wheat
plants now nearly three decades and more
than 9,000 formations later crop circles
have grown into complex and mathematical
fractals in lengths up to three-quarters
of a mile and they can be found in most
countries around the globe but along
with this amazing growth in numbers and
size of crop circles has come a
corresponding growth in the number of
admitted hoaxers aided and abetted in
some instances by major American and
British TV networks in one notable
a crop circle contest was held sponsored
by the Guardian Germany's PM magazine
and under the direction of dr. Robert
Sheldrake experts were called in from
among the various crop circle study
groups to judge the final product of the
participants a winner was chosen and
given an appropriate prize does this
prove then that the circles are in fact
the work of hoaxers if I gave you a $20
bill and I convinced you that it was
hoaxed would you thereafter refuse ever
to accept a $20 bill does this
invalidate the whole of the US currency
there are a paranormal phenomenon when
you step into a crop circle you realize
that you cannot explain what is making
this it's some sort of force is able to
turn the wheat and it's quite different
from a man-made phenomena you realize
that and there's no substitute for
really being in the field and seeing
that how for example could the contest
judges have evaluated those things
scientists say could not be hosts many
experts investigating the crop circle
sites have detected evidence of intense
microwave radiation not present in
ordinary fields could it be that our
increased use of microwave technology
has somehow affected standing crops
after all currently we use microwaves in
applications ranging from cooking to
telecommunications is it not possible
that by some strange set of
circumstances microwaves such as those
used for carrying telephone messages
could have somehow struck the ground
instead of their receiving station this
would account for the silent and
instantaneous arrival of the crop circle
if that or some other man-made
circumstance is possible can we now
assume that UFOs are not necessarily
involved in the crop circle phenomenon
and if we do and we also dismiss
photographs such as this hundreds of
eyewitnesses have seen objects such as
this in close proximity to crop circles
or near a place where a crop circle
would later be found well I arrived at a
field overlooking
huit fill in fact where there was a
major crop circle at playschool alton
barns very close to Stonehenge in
England there were eight of us
scientists and engineers some of whom
are employed by the US government here
and what happened a great surprise out
of absolutely nowhere I swooped a large
British military army helicopter
bristling with technology as of course
many of them of course are
but he came in very very close to us we
had no idea what he was up to at the
time we thought maybe initially that he
was taking photographs of the crop
circles that were already there but he
came to within I would estimate 40 feet
of our heads and there was nothing short
Amin it was nothing short of harassment
I think there was a major attempt to
move us out of that area I had no idea
why they would want to do that because
I've lived there for 48 years as if one
wasn't enough and the downdraft
literally was pushing the hedge row
alongside onto our vehicle a second one
swooped in behind him
these army helicopters were pushing us
attempting to push us out of the area as
we moved up the highway as a public
highway close to this field they
followed us behind the hedgerow
[Music]
but then we stopped and one of them
moved away rapidly from us over the top
of this large pattern and moved up to
approached a small sphere of light
pulsing I would estimate it was probably
18 inches or so in diameter pulsing and
the helicopter came right up to it it
couldn't possibly have missed seeing it
and in one frame of the film has simply
disappeared and he's now behind the
helicopter the helicopter appears do a
maneuver itself on its own axis to get a
better view of this because it's been
now behind it the second helicopter is
in touch of course by radio control by
radio communications as being told to
back his helicopter up as opposed to
turn it you can see changes his mind and
reverses his helicopter until this ball
of light is now right in front of him
again and it simply disappears with that
they howl around the area for just a few
more minutes and both of them made made
away it is obviously an assumption if I
were pushed hard on what I thought they
were doing I would be I think forced to
say that it seemed as if we were
unwelcome we had walked into an era
where they were already engaged in
something involving this very small ball
of light which we have not only been
reported had reported to as many times
by people in that area two major
patterns were already in the field and
the following day a number of more major
patterns appeared in that same area what
is it that the government of the United
States knows and wants to keep us the
public at a complete arm's length
distance from if they have an
understanding of what type or types of
non-human intelligence are interacting
with our planet I'm nervous about the
fact that they have kept a policy of
silence disinformation and ridicule
on phenomena that they themselves have
been studying intimately for 50 years
since the beginning of the 90s the
overnight appearance of cropped markings
has increased exponentially scarcely a
day goes by that a new formation is not
reported somewhere in the world even
more amazing have been the changes in
the patterns from simple circles and
rings to markings that are with each new
report growing in size and complexity
more importantly the phenomenon has
shown intelligent reaction to the
theories of the researchers when it was
said frequence on a hillsides caused the
circles the crop circles moved to flat
open areas when men armed with planks of
wood were suggested as the culprits
circles developed in canola one of the
most brittle plants possible if balloons
were said to have been the means of
making the circles they would suddenly
appear directly beneath high-voltage
wires at the height of the hoaxing an
American tourist edged out huge letters
on the side of a hill
talk to us the answer came back a few
days later when a most bizarre-looking
formation resembling Hebrew script
appeared at milk Hill the milk Hill
script is unusual as a crop circle
primarily because it doesn't look like a
crop circle it's actually the closest
that the circle makers have actually
used to a significant language form that
we can recognize now this language form
was actually analyzed by 12 scientists
using 40,000 different permutations or
words and using every conceivable
language known to mankind what they
finally came up with was two words that
were written in a very unusual form of
Latin and also written in the fields in
a freemasonic script this is a special
alphabet that was designed by the
Freemasons as a form of communication at
least eight eight centuries ago the
meaning of these glyphs was that they
actually came up as two different words
and the words read upon Oh
estas which translated into English
means we are opposed to cunning and
deceit now this is very significant
because at the time that milk Hill
script appeared it was 1990
- this is at the height of the hoaxing
just after Doug and Dave manifested for
the media so it's quite a significant
message considering the time in which it
came there is no doubt in my mind that
the crop circle makers are remarkably
intelligent I've been teaching geometry
architecture and design for my whole
professional life and the markings I see
in the crops embody a wisdom and
understanding than the scale beyond my
wildest imaginings we are getting levels
of inventiveness and continuing
creativity which I believe is beyond
human capacity but if these images are
being created by visitors from other
planets it represents major change it
has always been the assumption that
these visitors wanted to keep out of
sight now they are deliberately leaving
their fingerprints all over the crime
scene why why would visitors from
another world suddenly want us to know
of their presence here is this all
evidence that someone is trying to
communicate with us if communication is
the goal what is the message and if
there is a clearly identifiable message
where does it come from and what does it
mean
to you and me to our future the future
of the world after thousands of crop
markings around the world and nearly 30
years of serious research the crop
circles are still a mystery
