00:03:25,860 with you I've known you longer and we've 90 00:03:29,270 --> 00:03:27,000 known each other now a couple of years 91 00:03:30,830 --> 00:03:29,280 and this has been a long time in the 92 00:03:33,229 --> 00:03:30,840 making genuinely I think about two years 93 00:03:35,390 --> 00:03:33,239 ago I first said I need to get you on to 94 00:03:37,670 --> 00:03:35,400 talk about the crop circle topic 95 00:03:39,050 --> 00:03:37,680 conversation so um a little bit on your 96 00:03:41,390 --> 00:03:39,060 own background please now you got 97 00:03:43,550 --> 00:03:41,400 involved in the UFO subject 98 00:03:47,089 --> 00:03:43,560 um I first got involved in the UFO 99 00:03:49,670 --> 00:03:47,099 subject back in 1990 100 00:03:52,610 --> 00:03:49,680 um and that was through seeing pictures 101 00:03:55,550 --> 00:03:52,620 of them in the newspapers in the UK and 102 00:03:56,690 --> 00:03:55,560 in 1990 the papers were full of crop 103 00:03:59,149 --> 00:03:56,700 circles 104 00:04:01,130 --> 00:03:59,159 um and I saw I think probably the 105 00:04:03,949 --> 00:04:01,140 picture of the Big East field formation 106 00:04:06,050 --> 00:04:03,959 from that year and for those of you that 107 00:04:07,850 --> 00:04:06,060 don't know what crop circle that is it's 108 00:04:10,130 --> 00:04:07,860 the one that ended up on the the Led 109 00:04:12,530 --> 00:04:10,140 Zeppelin front cover 110 00:04:15,470 --> 00:04:12,540 um and um and that was so that was the 111 00:04:17,449 --> 00:04:15,480 first crop circle I ever saw was um I 112 00:04:19,909 --> 00:04:17,459 think I was about 20 years old 21 years 113 00:04:22,550 --> 00:04:19,919 old something like that 114 00:04:25,070 --> 00:04:22,560 um and it was just one of those you know 115 00:04:27,890 --> 00:04:25,080 hit you in the forehead moments I just 116 00:04:28,510 --> 00:04:27,900 was absolutely wowed by it 117 00:04:34,370 --> 00:04:28,520 um 118 00:04:40,790 --> 00:04:38,030 one of those incredible wow moments so 119 00:04:42,590 --> 00:04:40,800 from then I just wanted to to learn as 120 00:04:44,570 --> 00:04:42,600 much as I could about it I was very 121 00:04:47,270 --> 00:04:44,580 fortunate in those days there used to be 122 00:04:48,890 --> 00:04:47,280 a center for crop circle studies in the 123 00:04:51,890 --> 00:04:48,900 UK which was kind of like a broad 124 00:04:53,689 --> 00:04:51,900 network of researchers all over and I 125 00:04:56,390 --> 00:04:53,699 got involved with them for a number of 126 00:04:57,830 --> 00:04:56,400 years and got to meet a lot of other 127 00:04:59,150 --> 00:04:57,840 um researchers my own personal 128 00:05:02,090 --> 00:04:59,160 background 129 00:05:04,610 --> 00:05:02,100 um is the time a trained psychotherapist 130 00:05:07,010 --> 00:05:04,620 um I don't practice anymore I worked for 131 00:05:09,890 --> 00:05:07,020 a very well known UK charity for a 132 00:05:11,030 --> 00:05:09,900 number of years as a as a therapist 133 00:05:13,070 --> 00:05:11,040 um I now 134 00:05:15,409 --> 00:05:13,080 um do all kinds of bits and pieces but 135 00:05:19,129 --> 00:05:15,419 mostly um do a little bit of teaching of 136 00:05:20,930 --> 00:05:19,139 geometry and art and I run a few courses 137 00:05:23,830 --> 00:05:20,940 doing that but that's kind of basically 138 00:05:26,330 --> 00:05:23,840 my background 139 00:05:27,890 --> 00:05:26,340 geometry and art sound very relevant to 140 00:05:29,689 --> 00:05:27,900 the crop circle topic so you're well 141 00:05:32,450 --> 00:05:29,699 versed to speak on all of those I'm sure 142 00:05:35,270 --> 00:05:32,460 and then Gary same for yourself please 143 00:05:36,770 --> 00:05:35,280 uh right okay I was I was um I got a 144 00:05:39,170 --> 00:05:36,780 background in law I was a legal 145 00:05:40,610 --> 00:05:39,180 executive and private investigator owner 146 00:05:43,370 --> 00:05:40,620 and private investigation agency in 147 00:05:44,870 --> 00:05:43,380 London and also worked in South Wales 148 00:05:46,550 --> 00:05:44,880 and in other places as a private 149 00:05:50,390 --> 00:05:46,560 investigator 150 00:05:51,770 --> 00:05:50,400 um in 1996 end of 1996 I sort of had a 151 00:05:54,469 --> 00:05:51,780 bit of a life crisis with a bit of 152 00:05:56,689 --> 00:05:54,479 reversal breakdown really night tired 153 00:05:58,390 --> 00:05:56,699 exhausted burnt out that kind of stuff 154 00:06:01,189 --> 00:05:58,400 suffered a bit of burnout 155 00:06:03,350 --> 00:06:01,199 so I was taking some time out to do tai 156 00:06:04,909 --> 00:06:03,360 chi and yoga and meditation and learn 157 00:06:08,270 --> 00:06:04,919 about all those kind of groovy things 158 00:06:09,710 --> 00:06:08,280 and um met a guy who said he was over 159 00:06:12,770 --> 00:06:09,720 from America and he was going to visit 160 00:06:16,969 --> 00:06:12,780 the crop circles so I asked to go along 161 00:06:18,529 --> 00:06:16,979 and one day in July 1997 I went to Alton 162 00:06:20,749 --> 00:06:18,539 Barnes in which this famous hot spot 163 00:06:22,670 --> 00:06:20,759 that Karen mentioned earlier and um 164 00:06:25,850 --> 00:06:22,680 there was a newly formed crop circle 165 00:06:28,070 --> 00:06:25,860 that had appeared the night before 166 00:06:30,350 --> 00:06:28,080 um and I went inside that cop Circle and 167 00:06:31,969 --> 00:06:30,360 I always say that really I don't think I 168 00:06:34,010 --> 00:06:31,979 ever left then that was 169 00:06:35,450 --> 00:06:34,020 there was just so many things that sort 170 00:06:38,210 --> 00:06:35,460 of took place at that time and I think 171 00:06:40,370 --> 00:06:38,220 that coinciding with my sort of life's 172 00:06:41,450 --> 00:06:40,380 change it set me into a a different 173 00:06:43,070 --> 00:06:41,460 direction a completely different 174 00:06:45,469 --> 00:06:43,080 direction in my life still investigating 175 00:06:48,110 --> 00:06:45,479 still researching still making Arguments 176 00:06:51,590 --> 00:06:48,120 for and against which my background sort 177 00:06:53,689 --> 00:06:51,600 of allows me to do but um yeah that was 178 00:06:55,430 --> 00:06:53,699 it really and from then on I spent 10 179 00:06:57,469 --> 00:06:55,440 years just going down I lived in Cardiff 180 00:06:59,090 --> 00:06:57,479 traveling from Cardiff to Wiltshire 181 00:07:01,670 --> 00:06:59,100 during the summer months to visit crop 182 00:07:03,230 --> 00:07:01,680 circles and kept my head down really at 183 00:07:05,749 --> 00:07:03,240 first and just sort of made my own 184 00:07:08,629 --> 00:07:05,759 conclusions about things and then as you 185 00:07:09,890 --> 00:07:08,639 mentioned earlier in 2007 I was there 186 00:07:11,629 --> 00:07:09,900 with a couple of other people and we 187 00:07:13,610 --> 00:07:11,639 were recording a field 188 00:07:15,770 --> 00:07:13,620 um on camera that night and in this huge 189 00:07:17,629 --> 00:07:15,780 crop circle was there in the morning 190 00:07:19,969 --> 00:07:17,639 that wasn't there the night before and 191 00:07:21,110 --> 00:07:19,979 that's when I sort of became sort of a 192 00:07:23,150 --> 00:07:21,120 little bit more well-known with the crop 193 00:07:26,029 --> 00:07:23,160 circles and began speaking and doing TV 194 00:07:27,890 --> 00:07:26,039 interviews and so on so thanks for that 195 00:07:30,350 --> 00:07:27,900 both of you obvious question Gary you've 196 00:07:31,850 --> 00:07:30,360 brought up that uh 2007 Satan so we'll 197 00:07:34,430 --> 00:07:31,860 dip into that a little bit first then 198 00:07:37,790 --> 00:07:34,440 before we get maybe Back to Basics 199 00:07:39,830 --> 00:07:37,800 the Skeptics who listen to this and I'm 200 00:07:41,689 --> 00:07:39,840 I believe there's a genuine Phenomenon 201 00:07:43,129 --> 00:07:41,699 with crop circles that's where my 202 00:07:44,689 --> 00:07:43,139 personal belief and I don't always share 203 00:07:46,670 --> 00:07:44,699 them depending on interviews but I'll be 204 00:07:48,650 --> 00:07:46,680 honest there's a lot of them I think 205 00:07:50,570 --> 00:07:48,660 would likely be man-made I also think 206 00:07:52,010 --> 00:07:50,580 you can tell most of the man-made ones 207 00:07:53,930 --> 00:07:52,020 just due to the way they look the 208 00:07:56,029 --> 00:07:53,940 geometry of it you know a bit fuzzy 209 00:07:58,370 --> 00:07:56,039 around the edges all that kind of stuff 210 00:08:01,070 --> 00:07:58,380 um but I'm certainly no expert on them 211 00:08:02,210 --> 00:08:01,080 but a skeptic would ask and it's a fair 212 00:08:03,770 --> 00:08:02,220 question I'm sure you've got a good 213 00:08:06,050 --> 00:08:03,780 answer for it too you were there 214 00:08:07,969 --> 00:08:06,060 recording the night before in the field 215 00:08:10,010 --> 00:08:07,979 um what were you recording for was it 216 00:08:11,270 --> 00:08:10,020 known that that was an area for kind of 217 00:08:13,969 --> 00:08:11,280 high strangeness or was it some other 218 00:08:16,129 --> 00:08:13,979 project uh I wasn't recording myself so 219 00:08:18,350 --> 00:08:16,139 it was another man who was a UFO sort of 220 00:08:20,529 --> 00:08:18,360 Hunter his name is Winston Keach he 221 00:08:22,909 --> 00:08:20,539 regularly I found out after the event 222 00:08:24,469 --> 00:08:22,919 regularly trans uh well no it's actually 223 00:08:25,909 --> 00:08:24,479 before that I had met him the day before 224 00:08:27,529 --> 00:08:25,919 and he told me that he comes down 225 00:08:29,330 --> 00:08:27,539 regularly in the summer months to you 226 00:08:31,309 --> 00:08:29,340 know investigate UFOs and so on and so 227 00:08:34,430 --> 00:08:31,319 forth and he's got some camera equipment 228 00:08:36,050 --> 00:08:34,440 and he picks various spots to record and 229 00:08:37,909 --> 00:08:36,060 he was interviewed at the time and they 230 00:08:39,529 --> 00:08:37,919 and he was asked why did you choose that 231 00:08:42,110 --> 00:08:39,539 field because he was going around 232 00:08:43,550 --> 00:08:42,120 scouting locations that night 233 00:08:45,710 --> 00:08:43,560 um and apparently he'd driven into the 234 00:08:48,410 --> 00:08:45,720 Napier car park and his dog he had a 235 00:08:50,329 --> 00:08:48,420 rescue dog with him well acted really 236 00:08:51,710 --> 00:08:50,339 strangely at that car park at that time 237 00:08:54,650 --> 00:08:51,720 and he said that's what made me think 238 00:08:56,389 --> 00:08:54,660 okay I'm gonna go here tonight and uh I 239 00:08:58,009 --> 00:08:56,399 was I'd met him as I said coincidentally 240 00:09:00,110 --> 00:08:58,019 in the day in the cop Circle Cafe so I 241 00:09:02,389 --> 00:09:00,120 saw a new him from that briefing in 242 00:09:03,650 --> 00:09:02,399 interaction but it wasn't until later 243 00:09:05,389 --> 00:09:03,660 around sort of one o'clock in the 244 00:09:08,150 --> 00:09:05,399 morning when my girlfriend and I walked 245 00:09:09,590 --> 00:09:08,160 up the hill we saw him there and so then 246 00:09:10,850 --> 00:09:09,600 we had this chance encounter and he 247 00:09:13,130 --> 00:09:10,860 explained that he got all this camera 248 00:09:16,130 --> 00:09:13,140 equipment and he was there searching for 249 00:09:18,410 --> 00:09:16,140 UFOs and he told us a story about 20 250 00:09:22,130 --> 00:09:18,420 years ago 251 00:09:24,530 --> 00:09:22,140 um that he'd seen or watched this ball 252 00:09:26,870 --> 00:09:24,540 of light go across East field in the 253 00:09:30,290 --> 00:09:26,880 exactly the same location 254 00:09:32,630 --> 00:09:30,300 he said that this was like 1996 I think 255 00:09:34,610 --> 00:09:32,640 he said it was uh this ball of light 256 00:09:37,130 --> 00:09:34,620 sort of went across the field he said it 257 00:09:39,650 --> 00:09:37,140 opened up to around 20 feet in diameter 258 00:09:41,509 --> 00:09:39,660 uh he heard some wheat rustling he 259 00:09:43,430 --> 00:09:41,519 thought he did anyway and then this ball 260 00:09:46,070 --> 00:09:43,440 closed off and shot across the veil of 261 00:09:48,290 --> 00:09:46,080 pusey he said he didn't have time to 262 00:09:50,509 --> 00:09:48,300 even key up his his you know sort of 263 00:09:52,790 --> 00:09:50,519 camcorder that he had at the time and so 264 00:09:54,410 --> 00:09:52,800 that had spurred him to get more and 265 00:09:56,269 --> 00:09:54,420 more sophisticated equipment and every 266 00:09:58,730 --> 00:09:56,279 year travel down from Yorkshire to try 267 00:10:01,370 --> 00:09:58,740 and catch this thing in action again 268 00:10:02,810 --> 00:10:01,380 and then so so we sat in so that's great 269 00:10:04,550 --> 00:10:02,820 story and then I told him that I'd been 270 00:10:07,009 --> 00:10:04,560 looking into them for 10 years and then 271 00:10:08,150 --> 00:10:07,019 because it was 777 we just thought you 272 00:10:09,949 --> 00:10:08,160 know because I hadn't done night watches 273 00:10:11,630 --> 00:10:09,959 before it wasn't my thing really to 274 00:10:12,650 --> 00:10:11,640 catch another thing in action but I 275 00:10:14,750 --> 00:10:12,660 thought it would be great it was lovely 276 00:10:15,829 --> 00:10:14,760 as my girlfriend was a good idea we'd 277 00:10:17,329 --> 00:10:15,839 had some we'd had some strange 278 00:10:18,949 --> 00:10:17,339 coincidences as well that happened in 279 00:10:20,870 --> 00:10:18,959 the day that sort of we took his signs 280 00:10:22,670 --> 00:10:20,880 you know to say oh yeah great 281 00:10:24,650 --> 00:10:22,680 and so we you know that was it really 282 00:10:27,050 --> 00:10:24,660 and we met up on that fateful night and 283 00:10:29,090 --> 00:10:27,060 sat there talking 284 00:10:31,009 --> 00:10:29,100 um wind had started recording just 285 00:10:33,110 --> 00:10:31,019 before it got dark so that's why we know 286 00:10:35,030 --> 00:10:33,120 that there was nothing there before it 287 00:10:37,370 --> 00:10:35,040 got dark which is close to 11 o'clock in 288 00:10:38,630 --> 00:10:37,380 the peak of British summer time and we 289 00:10:40,970 --> 00:10:38,640 got there around one o'clock or 290 00:10:43,070 --> 00:10:40,980 something 1 30 I think it was 291 00:10:45,470 --> 00:10:43,080 and then about 20 past three there was 292 00:10:47,509 --> 00:10:45,480 this flash of light and it was Pitch 293 00:10:48,590 --> 00:10:47,519 back pitch black and we were in the 294 00:10:50,210 --> 00:10:48,600 midst of this really interesting 295 00:10:51,350 --> 00:10:50,220 conversation because wind's quite an 296 00:10:53,870 --> 00:10:51,360 interesting guy 297 00:10:55,490 --> 00:10:53,880 and then about 15 or 20 minutes later he 298 00:10:57,530 --> 00:10:55,500 said I'm going to do a scan of the field 299 00:10:58,550 --> 00:10:57,540 and he opened up this viewfinder of the 300 00:11:00,230 --> 00:10:58,560 camera and 301 00:11:01,910 --> 00:11:00,240 quickly urged us to get out of our 302 00:11:03,889 --> 00:11:01,920 sleeping bags and unwrap ourselves in 303 00:11:05,569 --> 00:11:03,899 these blankets and have a look at the 304 00:11:07,250 --> 00:11:05,579 viewfinder and that's when we saw this 305 00:11:08,810 --> 00:11:07,260 it's huge we couldn't even make it out 306 00:11:10,190 --> 00:11:08,820 completely just saw lots and lots of 307 00:11:12,230 --> 00:11:10,200 circles we couldn't see the whole design 308 00:11:13,730 --> 00:11:12,240 we had to wait another 20 minutes or so 309 00:11:14,810 --> 00:11:13,740 until the light came up before we could 310 00:11:17,870 --> 00:11:14,820 really see it 311 00:11:20,690 --> 00:11:17,880 so that's how it all happened 312 00:11:22,790 --> 00:11:20,700 for you there was no question that no 313 00:11:24,410 --> 00:11:22,800 one had gone down there unbeknownst to 314 00:11:25,310 --> 00:11:24,420 you it's dark it's a field you know 315 00:11:27,590 --> 00:11:25,320 someone could have been down here 316 00:11:29,690 --> 00:11:27,600 without you seeing but there was none of 317 00:11:31,310 --> 00:11:29,700 that there was no signs that someone was 318 00:11:32,990 --> 00:11:31,320 down there or people were there with 319 00:11:35,269 --> 00:11:33,000 equipment making these circles and for 320 00:11:36,829 --> 00:11:35,279 you there was a genuine phenomena card 321 00:11:38,810 --> 00:11:36,839 yeah is that the feeling you got yeah 322 00:11:40,130 --> 00:11:38,820 yeah I mean for a number of reasons and 323 00:11:41,690 --> 00:11:40,140 I've made this argument you know many 324 00:11:42,949 --> 00:11:41,700 times over the years and nobody's ever 325 00:11:44,990 --> 00:11:42,959 been able to sort of come forward and 326 00:11:47,810 --> 00:11:45,000 say oh yes but you know you're not 327 00:11:49,250 --> 00:11:47,820 you're not thinking about this so in the 328 00:11:51,290 --> 00:11:49,260 in the you know in the ensuing years 329 00:11:52,329 --> 00:11:51,300 I've yet to have anybody that's come up 330 00:11:54,829 --> 00:11:52,339 and said 331 00:11:56,750 --> 00:11:54,839 made a counter argument to the to the 332 00:11:59,269 --> 00:11:56,760 events that took place which can satisfy 333 00:12:01,310 --> 00:11:59,279 me and those are yes we never heard 334 00:12:03,170 --> 00:12:01,320 anything we never saw anything we have 335 00:12:04,490 --> 00:12:03,180 videoed people making crop circles and 336 00:12:05,990 --> 00:12:04,500 when they do it at night they usually 337 00:12:07,970 --> 00:12:06,000 use head torches and they make an awful 338 00:12:09,530 --> 00:12:07,980 lot of noise screaming at each other to 339 00:12:11,449 --> 00:12:09,540 go left and right and so on and so forth 340 00:12:13,610 --> 00:12:11,459 we heard none of that and none of that 341 00:12:15,410 --> 00:12:13,620 was picked up on the cameras 342 00:12:18,290 --> 00:12:15,420 um but the big thing for me is the time 343 00:12:22,009 --> 00:12:18,300 frame number one the time of frame 344 00:12:23,870 --> 00:12:22,019 um if we round up from 11 11 pm until 345 00:12:26,990 --> 00:12:23,880 about 4 a.m in the morning we've got 346 00:12:31,310 --> 00:12:27,000 five hours yeah that's 300 minutes there 347 00:12:32,690 --> 00:12:31,320 were 150 individual circles ranging in 348 00:12:33,949 --> 00:12:32,700 size 349 00:12:35,630 --> 00:12:33,959 um the biggest ones being around 100 350 00:12:37,130 --> 00:12:35,640 they weren't actually circles because of 351 00:12:38,870 --> 00:12:37,140 the undulating ground that they were on 352 00:12:41,210 --> 00:12:38,880 that's another story but the biggest 353 00:12:42,829 --> 00:12:41,220 circle measured I think 161 feet by 354 00:12:44,690 --> 00:12:42,839 about 140 or something because they're 355 00:12:46,430 --> 00:12:44,700 oval to make them look circular from 356 00:12:47,269 --> 00:12:46,440 above as they go across the browser sort 357 00:12:54,410 --> 00:12:47,279 of 358 00:12:55,430 --> 00:12:54,420 um and so time frame you know 150 359 00:12:57,110 --> 00:12:55,440 circles 360 00:12:58,430 --> 00:12:57,120 um in 300 minutes means that they would 361 00:13:00,110 --> 00:12:58,440 have had to make one every two minutes 362 00:13:01,790 --> 00:13:00,120 without lights without anybody 363 00:13:03,110 --> 00:13:01,800 coordinating the efforts without us 364 00:13:04,610 --> 00:13:03,120 three witnessing it without anything 365 00:13:06,650 --> 00:13:04,620 being picked up on the cameras that 366 00:13:07,670 --> 00:13:06,660 we're recording two sets of cameras the 367 00:13:09,650 --> 00:13:07,680 whole time 368 00:13:12,889 --> 00:13:09,660 when I've watched people make crop 369 00:13:16,009 --> 00:13:12,899 circles for example the Mozilla Firefox 370 00:13:17,449 --> 00:13:16,019 crop circle that was made by 12 students 371 00:13:19,850 --> 00:13:17,459 um I'm not sure when it was now it was 372 00:13:22,069 --> 00:13:19,860 back in early 2000 they took 23 hours to 373 00:13:24,230 --> 00:13:22,079 make a 200 foot circle when you went 374 00:13:25,790 --> 00:13:24,240 inside the whole crop was trash there 375 00:13:27,650 --> 00:13:25,800 were clear post holes where they've been 376 00:13:31,009 --> 00:13:27,660 whacking in posts and so on and so forth 377 00:13:32,690 --> 00:13:31,019 there was in my view no comparison to 378 00:13:33,949 --> 00:13:32,700 the size and scale of the formation that 379 00:13:36,290 --> 00:13:33,959 appeared in front of us in the time 380 00:13:38,690 --> 00:13:36,300 frame without any evidence being filmed 381 00:13:40,670 --> 00:13:38,700 on camera or witnessed by the three of 382 00:13:43,389 --> 00:13:40,680 us that were there so that's that's what 383 00:13:47,150 --> 00:13:45,410 I've just been looking at it as you've 384 00:13:49,009 --> 00:13:47,160 described it as well and it's incredibly 385 00:13:51,410 --> 00:13:49,019 intricate it's not one of the more basic 386 00:13:54,590 --> 00:13:51,420 ones I'll certainly give it that 387 00:13:57,050 --> 00:13:54,600 um and if that was man-made 388 00:13:59,870 --> 00:13:57,060 yeah that's that's not four or five 389 00:14:00,829 --> 00:13:59,880 hours of work no maybe four or five 390 00:14:03,230 --> 00:14:00,839 weeks 391 00:14:04,550 --> 00:14:03,240 um looking at it from from here um but I 392 00:14:05,750 --> 00:14:04,560 wanted to get back to basics because 393 00:14:07,190 --> 00:14:05,760 thank you for sharing that Gary I 394 00:14:09,230 --> 00:14:07,200 appreciate it we'll go into more detail 395 00:14:11,269 --> 00:14:09,240 and some of those other cases too 396 00:14:13,850 --> 00:14:11,279 um I'm going to ask you a really obvious 397 00:14:15,710 --> 00:14:13,860 question Karen but I want to get all the 398 00:14:17,690 --> 00:14:15,720 listener bases covered here for folks 399 00:14:19,850 --> 00:14:17,700 who maybe are less familiar if someone 400 00:14:22,069 --> 00:14:19,860 came up to you and what do you mean crop 401 00:14:23,750 --> 00:14:22,079 circle what's a crop circle how do you 402 00:14:26,150 --> 00:14:23,760 define that to people actually that's a 403 00:14:27,590 --> 00:14:26,160 really good question because 404 00:14:28,790 --> 00:14:27,600 um one thing that I've found over the 405 00:14:30,590 --> 00:14:28,800 years is actually people are a little 406 00:14:33,110 --> 00:14:30,600 bit confused about what actually 407 00:14:36,050 --> 00:14:33,120 constitutes a crop circle so 408 00:14:40,430 --> 00:14:36,060 so on its most very basic level 409 00:14:43,129 --> 00:14:40,440 um a crop circle is a circle of crop and 410 00:14:46,129 --> 00:14:43,139 usually it's flattened and swirled and 411 00:14:48,050 --> 00:14:46,139 but we also have all kinds of other 412 00:14:50,569 --> 00:14:48,060 um beautiful things going on in delayed 413 00:14:52,310 --> 00:14:50,579 crop of some of the circles which 414 00:14:54,290 --> 00:14:52,320 will come back to 415 00:14:57,170 --> 00:14:54,300 um but the crop isn't sort of cut or 416 00:15:00,290 --> 00:14:57,180 moan or anything like that it is it is 417 00:15:02,210 --> 00:15:00,300 flattened very often when you go in a 418 00:15:04,610 --> 00:15:02,220 new Circle where there haven't been many 419 00:15:07,790 --> 00:15:04,620 visitors you'll find that the crops are 420 00:15:11,150 --> 00:15:07,800 not laid right flat to the floor 421 00:15:14,150 --> 00:15:11,160 um there's usually maybe two sometimes 422 00:15:17,329 --> 00:15:14,160 more inches and and then the crops sort 423 00:15:18,470 --> 00:15:17,339 of go over they'll they'll swirly swirl 424 00:15:20,870 --> 00:15:18,480 either 425 00:15:23,389 --> 00:15:20,880 um anti-clockwise or clockwise 426 00:15:26,210 --> 00:15:23,399 um and some of them just look incredible 427 00:15:28,490 --> 00:15:26,220 they have to be seen to be believed it's 428 00:15:31,069 --> 00:15:28,500 sort of you look at them and then it 429 00:15:33,290 --> 00:15:31,079 looks like sort of water 430 00:15:34,910 --> 00:15:33,300 um sort of running water in it and some 431 00:15:38,389 --> 00:15:34,920 of them just look absolutely fantastic 432 00:15:40,850 --> 00:15:38,399 now they occur in all kinds of crops 433 00:15:43,730 --> 00:15:40,860 um so in the UK the crops that we grow 434 00:15:45,530 --> 00:15:43,740 most over here would be crops like oil 435 00:15:47,810 --> 00:15:45,540 seed rate which is when you see the 436 00:15:50,509 --> 00:15:47,820 yellow flowers in in the fields usually 437 00:15:53,870 --> 00:15:50,519 around about this time of year and then 438 00:15:55,730 --> 00:15:53,880 barley and then wheat and then sometimes 439 00:15:57,829 --> 00:15:55,740 we might get through to Maize which is 440 00:15:59,750 --> 00:15:57,839 like corn on the cob which is these huge 441 00:16:02,150 --> 00:15:59,760 great plants 442 00:16:05,389 --> 00:16:02,160 um you know taller than me very often 443 00:16:07,069 --> 00:16:05,399 um and um and so those are the ones in 444 00:16:09,050 --> 00:16:07,079 in the UK and the other thing that 445 00:16:10,670 --> 00:16:09,060 people sometimes forget is that crop 446 00:16:12,790 --> 00:16:10,680 circles don't just happen here they 447 00:16:16,250 --> 00:16:12,800 actually happen all over the world so 448 00:16:18,970 --> 00:16:16,260 they happen again in whatever crops are 449 00:16:22,490 --> 00:16:18,980 predominantly grown in that kind of of 450 00:16:24,829 --> 00:16:22,500 country so with the US for instance you 451 00:16:27,290 --> 00:16:24,839 get a lot in Maize you get a lot in soya 452 00:16:29,389 --> 00:16:27,300 because that's a big crop over there 453 00:16:32,750 --> 00:16:29,399 we've even had them reported in rice 454 00:16:35,030 --> 00:16:32,760 paddy fields in Japan 455 00:16:37,490 --> 00:16:35,040 um and I mean in this country we've had 456 00:16:38,870 --> 00:16:37,500 them in borage which is like a herbal 457 00:16:40,910 --> 00:16:38,880 plant it has these beautiful blue 458 00:16:43,610 --> 00:16:40,920 flowers on it 459 00:16:46,009 --> 00:16:43,620 um beads linseed which is often grown 460 00:16:47,509 --> 00:16:46,019 over here beans one year I think broad 461 00:16:50,509 --> 00:16:47,519 beans 462 00:16:54,170 --> 00:16:50,519 um so yeah all kinds of different plants 463 00:16:56,389 --> 00:16:54,180 but mostly it will be sort of barley and 464 00:16:58,670 --> 00:16:56,399 wheat those are the main ones in in the 465 00:17:01,610 --> 00:16:58,680 UK and as I say that the crops are not 466 00:17:02,990 --> 00:17:01,620 mono cut they are sort of gently laid 467 00:17:05,569 --> 00:17:03,000 down 468 00:17:07,789 --> 00:17:05,579 um usually in a in a swirl but sometimes 469 00:17:10,490 --> 00:17:07,799 in other patterns as well 470 00:17:13,730 --> 00:17:10,500 sometimes 471 00:17:16,130 --> 00:17:13,740 yeah sure in more recent years people 472 00:17:18,710 --> 00:17:16,140 tend to look at UFO sightings and look 473 00:17:21,470 --> 00:17:18,720 for several of the five observables 474 00:17:23,030 --> 00:17:21,480 depending on speed you know trans medium 475 00:17:26,390 --> 00:17:23,040 travel 476 00:17:29,330 --> 00:17:26,400 um no noise and I'm bastardizing those 477 00:17:31,850 --> 00:17:29,340 apologies but is there such a list for 478 00:17:33,830 --> 00:17:31,860 crop circles where you go into a new 479 00:17:37,070 --> 00:17:33,840 crop circle and think I'm looking for 480 00:17:38,990 --> 00:17:37,080 some of these main identifiers as a 481 00:17:40,909 --> 00:17:39,000 lemon to crop circles one thing I've 482 00:17:42,409 --> 00:17:40,919 heard about and read about and this has 483 00:17:44,630 --> 00:17:42,419 been something that stuck with me for a 484 00:17:46,789 --> 00:17:44,640 long time and one of the things I would 485 00:17:49,310 --> 00:17:46,799 think that would be incredibly difficult 486 00:17:52,789 --> 00:17:49,320 if not impossible for a human to do 487 00:17:55,610 --> 00:17:52,799 as on the stocks of the the you know the 488 00:17:57,890 --> 00:17:55,620 crop being bent there are like uh joints 489 00:17:59,450 --> 00:17:57,900 where there are little seeds and I'm 490 00:18:01,430 --> 00:17:59,460 writing saying those are tend to be 491 00:18:03,650 --> 00:18:01,440 popped out in many of them and there 492 00:18:06,110 --> 00:18:03,660 would be like tens of thousands due to 493 00:18:07,990 --> 00:18:06,120 either radiation or heat and those pop 494 00:18:10,850 --> 00:18:08,000 out as they're being bent over which 495 00:18:12,950 --> 00:18:10,860 even at you know 20 students or 200 496 00:18:14,990 --> 00:18:12,960 students couldn't go down the crops 497 00:18:16,730 --> 00:18:15,000 individually popping out all those kind 498 00:18:18,409 --> 00:18:16,740 of points I'm not too sure of the 499 00:18:20,090 --> 00:18:18,419 technical name of them but is that the 500 00:18:21,710 --> 00:18:20,100 sort of thing where we're looking at and 501 00:18:23,210 --> 00:18:21,720 what else would be looked for yeah so 502 00:18:26,810 --> 00:18:23,220 what you're describing there is actually 503 00:18:29,930 --> 00:18:26,820 some of the effects to crops that were 504 00:18:31,789 --> 00:18:29,940 noted by a by American biophysicist 505 00:18:33,830 --> 00:18:31,799 called William levingood he's not with 506 00:18:35,330 --> 00:18:33,840 us anymore unfortunately who did a lot 507 00:18:36,490 --> 00:18:35,340 of 508 00:18:39,470 --> 00:18:36,500 um scientific 509 00:18:42,289 --> 00:18:39,480 analysis plant samples from crop circles 510 00:18:45,049 --> 00:18:42,299 both in the US and in the UK he was 511 00:18:47,630 --> 00:18:45,059 us-based he had a background in working 512 00:18:49,909 --> 00:18:47,640 for excuse me sea growing companies in 513 00:18:51,890 --> 00:18:49,919 the US so he was familiar with working 514 00:18:53,510 --> 00:18:51,900 with crops so yep so what you're 515 00:18:55,850 --> 00:18:53,520 describing there is what he would call 516 00:18:57,950 --> 00:18:55,860 expulsion cavities so you're right if 517 00:19:00,529 --> 00:18:57,960 you look at a barley or a wheat stem 518 00:19:03,470 --> 00:19:00,539 you'll see as the you go up the scent 519 00:19:04,669 --> 00:19:03,480 the stem several of these sort of fleshy 520 00:19:06,590 --> 00:19:04,679 um parts of the stem they're called 521 00:19:09,529 --> 00:19:06,600 nodal points and they're essentially 522 00:19:11,750 --> 00:19:09,539 where they do two things one is they 523 00:19:14,330 --> 00:19:11,760 it's where the plant stores its moisture 524 00:19:15,650 --> 00:19:14,340 and it's also where growth comes from as 525 00:19:17,330 --> 00:19:15,660 well 526 00:19:18,350 --> 00:19:17,340 um and there can be several effects to 527 00:19:20,390 --> 00:19:18,360 those 528 00:19:22,370 --> 00:19:20,400 um one of the facts that you described 529 00:19:23,930 --> 00:19:22,380 is kind of kind of like this popping 530 00:19:28,490 --> 00:19:23,940 where 531 00:19:30,830 --> 00:19:28,500 been popped from the inside out and the 532 00:19:33,190 --> 00:19:30,840 other one is nodal bending where very 533 00:19:36,650 --> 00:19:33,200 often the nodes will be both elongated 534 00:19:38,450 --> 00:19:36,660 and also will be bent usually in the 535 00:19:41,150 --> 00:19:38,460 direction of whichever direction the 536 00:19:43,490 --> 00:19:41,160 crop itself is is laid 537 00:19:47,630 --> 00:19:43,500 um and um he believed that this was 538 00:19:48,890 --> 00:19:47,640 caused by some kind of microwave energy 539 00:19:52,070 --> 00:19:48,900 um although he could never say where 540 00:19:54,409 --> 00:19:52,080 that might to come from and that was his 541 00:19:56,029 --> 00:19:54,419 belief so so the expulsion cavities 542 00:19:58,730 --> 00:19:56,039 would be a little bit like putting 543 00:20:00,830 --> 00:19:58,740 popcorn in your microwave so they heat 544 00:20:02,990 --> 00:20:00,840 from the inside out so that the moisture 545 00:20:06,110 --> 00:20:03,000 Heats from the inside out and it causes 546 00:20:08,810 --> 00:20:06,120 um these these nodal points to Pop 547 00:20:11,570 --> 00:20:08,820 um and the same with the um with the no 548 00:20:13,250 --> 00:20:11,580 delongation as well and and he's he it 549 00:20:15,289 --> 00:20:13,260 was his belief 550 00:20:18,350 --> 00:20:15,299 um according to his research 551 00:20:20,810 --> 00:20:18,360 um that um whatever was causing this was 552 00:20:22,970 --> 00:20:20,820 the application of some kind of 553 00:20:25,190 --> 00:20:22,980 microwave energy for a very short 554 00:20:27,169 --> 00:20:25,200 fraction of a second and it would just 555 00:20:28,549 --> 00:20:27,179 be enough to heat 556 00:20:31,010 --> 00:20:28,559 um the moisture in the plants to get 557 00:20:33,230 --> 00:20:31,020 them to lie flat 558 00:20:35,750 --> 00:20:33,240 um and and as far as I know that was 559 00:20:37,850 --> 00:20:35,760 kind of the extent of what he was able 560 00:20:39,710 --> 00:20:37,860 to discover by looking 561 00:20:41,270 --> 00:20:39,720 um at the plants now I'm not a scientist 562 00:20:42,950 --> 00:20:41,280 I have to tell you this so full 563 00:20:44,450 --> 00:20:42,960 disclosure here as you know I'm not a 564 00:20:46,370 --> 00:20:44,460 scientist so 565 00:20:48,650 --> 00:20:46,380 um I don't know but he wrote many 566 00:20:50,330 --> 00:20:48,660 research papers on this and if you're 567 00:20:51,529 --> 00:20:50,340 interested in that you can go and have a 568 00:20:58,010 --> 00:20:51,539 look at them because they're online 569 00:21:03,529 --> 00:21:00,770 um and um that's where lemon Goods 570 00:21:05,810 --> 00:21:03,539 research papers and so on can be found 571 00:21:08,350 --> 00:21:05,820 and it's some of them are a fascinating 572 00:21:10,130 --> 00:21:08,360 read he also did work into 573 00:21:12,950 --> 00:21:10,140 soils 574 00:21:16,190 --> 00:21:12,960 um and and other other things as well I 575 00:21:18,289 --> 00:21:16,200 know that he looked at soils where there 576 00:21:21,049 --> 00:21:18,299 had been cattle mutilations for instance 577 00:21:23,870 --> 00:21:21,059 so it kind of widened out his interest 578 00:21:26,029 --> 00:21:23,880 into sort of um cattle mutilations and I 579 00:21:28,430 --> 00:21:26,039 think also some UFO landing sites as 580 00:21:30,770 --> 00:21:28,440 well so he was an interesting guy and 581 00:21:33,230 --> 00:21:30,780 you know and as I say I'm not 582 00:21:34,610 --> 00:21:33,240 I've kind of told you as much as I can 583 00:21:37,250 --> 00:21:34,620 sort of say 584 00:21:39,230 --> 00:21:37,260 um you know without overstepping them up 585 00:21:41,750 --> 00:21:39,240 because as I say I'm not a scientist but 586 00:21:43,549 --> 00:21:41,760 that's as I understand it no no 587 00:21:45,110 --> 00:21:43,559 no I appreciate that because that's the 588 00:21:46,909 --> 00:21:45,120 one that's always stuck with me and it 589 00:21:48,169 --> 00:21:46,919 was in some documentary years and years 590 00:21:49,909 --> 00:21:48,179 ago that I watched I always remember 591 00:21:52,610 --> 00:21:49,919 that really stood out as well that would 592 00:21:54,649 --> 00:21:52,620 be incredibly hard to do or replicate 593 00:21:56,330 --> 00:21:54,659 like Gary says even with groups of 594 00:21:58,789 --> 00:21:56,340 students you know you you can't 595 00:22:00,289 --> 00:21:58,799 physically replicate that um and Gary I 596 00:22:03,049 --> 00:22:00,299 would ask you the same question that if 597 00:22:05,570 --> 00:22:03,059 you're going into an investigation a 598 00:22:08,270 --> 00:22:05,580 newly formed crop formation what sort of 599 00:22:09,649 --> 00:22:08,280 signs are you looking for 600 00:22:11,270 --> 00:22:09,659 um mine aren't scientific because I'm 601 00:22:13,730 --> 00:22:11,280 not a scientific scientist Ivory it's 602 00:22:16,070 --> 00:22:13,740 mostly based on experience of going into 603 00:22:18,169 --> 00:22:16,080 lots and lots of crop circles and um and 604 00:22:20,450 --> 00:22:18,179 so it would be the conditions under 605 00:22:22,070 --> 00:22:20,460 which I knew it appeared so if we were 606 00:22:24,049 --> 00:22:22,080 absolutely sure that it wasn't there the 607 00:22:25,549 --> 00:22:24,059 night before and it was discovered at 608 00:22:27,710 --> 00:22:25,559 first light and I knew that it had 609 00:22:29,930 --> 00:22:27,720 appeared in five or six hours before 610 00:22:31,610 --> 00:22:29,940 somebody had found it then that would be 611 00:22:33,649 --> 00:22:31,620 the first indicator or there might be 612 00:22:35,630 --> 00:22:33,659 something here because I know if 613 00:22:37,430 --> 00:22:35,640 anybody's ever been to Wiltshire there 614 00:22:39,770 --> 00:22:37,440 are no street lights these are areas 615 00:22:42,049 --> 00:22:39,780 farming areas which go completely dark 616 00:22:44,210 --> 00:22:42,059 at night so if anybody does put a torch 617 00:22:46,669 --> 00:22:44,220 on you could literally see that light 618 00:22:47,810 --> 00:22:46,679 from a long way away it's very very 619 00:22:49,850 --> 00:22:47,820 detectable 620 00:22:51,350 --> 00:22:49,860 so so that'll be the first thing then 621 00:22:53,210 --> 00:22:51,360 when I walk in them and I have been 622 00:22:55,010 --> 00:22:53,220 fortunate enough to go into crop circles 623 00:22:56,630 --> 00:22:55,020 early in the morning because you know 624 00:22:58,549 --> 00:22:56,640 I've just been in the area and we may 625 00:23:00,770 --> 00:22:58,559 have heard early from Karen or Steve 626 00:23:02,570 --> 00:23:00,780 flying or one of the other microlite 627 00:23:05,450 --> 00:23:02,580 pilots in the area that have flown first 628 00:23:08,890 --> 00:23:05,460 thing and told us you know so I get to 629 00:23:11,810 --> 00:23:08,900 them and walk inside and when I see this 630 00:23:14,090 --> 00:23:11,820 expansive crop that's laid down I can't 631 00:23:16,610 --> 00:23:14,100 figure out what the geometric shape is 632 00:23:18,590 --> 00:23:16,620 and it's on undulating ground and 633 00:23:20,090 --> 00:23:18,600 therefore I'm starting to go okay this 634 00:23:21,529 --> 00:23:20,100 is not easy because when people make 635 00:23:22,909 --> 00:23:21,539 them they always make them on flat 636 00:23:24,470 --> 00:23:22,919 ground because it's so easy to then 637 00:23:26,510 --> 00:23:24,480 represent what you're seeing from above 638 00:23:29,270 --> 00:23:26,520 when it's on undulating ground you have 639 00:23:30,950 --> 00:23:29,280 to make so many compensations to make it 640 00:23:33,169 --> 00:23:30,960 look like it's on a flat surface from 641 00:23:34,310 --> 00:23:33,179 above then you're upping the complexity 642 00:23:36,110 --> 00:23:34,320 level 643 00:23:38,210 --> 00:23:36,120 so then if I see that there are no 644 00:23:40,789 --> 00:23:38,220 obvious board marks where you see this 645 00:23:43,430 --> 00:23:40,799 consistent crushing and scraping of the 646 00:23:45,710 --> 00:23:43,440 stems and breaking of all the heads and 647 00:23:47,390 --> 00:23:45,720 the rest of it then in particularly as 648 00:23:48,770 --> 00:23:47,400 camera machine in oil seed rate the 649 00:23:51,230 --> 00:23:48,780 yellow flowers if those little yellow 650 00:23:52,730 --> 00:23:51,240 petals which you're absolutely covered 651 00:23:55,549 --> 00:23:52,740 in if you've walked down the tram lines 652 00:23:57,230 --> 00:23:55,559 to get to them are then perfectly intact 653 00:23:59,990 --> 00:23:57,240 and there's this just sea of yellow 654 00:24:01,370 --> 00:24:00,000 intact petals that aren't damaged and 655 00:24:04,010 --> 00:24:01,380 aren't scraped because the stems are 656 00:24:05,510 --> 00:24:04,020 like celery it's quite brittle 657 00:24:07,130 --> 00:24:05,520 um then then I'm starting to say okay 658 00:24:09,049 --> 00:24:07,140 there's something that something needs 659 00:24:11,450 --> 00:24:09,059 to be looked at here because 660 00:24:13,130 --> 00:24:11,460 because when people walk in them they 661 00:24:15,289 --> 00:24:13,140 cause the damage that you might see 662 00:24:17,450 --> 00:24:15,299 several days later and what you then 663 00:24:19,010 --> 00:24:17,460 find is that where people of War they 664 00:24:21,350 --> 00:24:19,020 tend to walk down the center of these 665 00:24:23,570 --> 00:24:21,360 sort of Pathways that exist or areas 666 00:24:26,029 --> 00:24:23,580 they usually walk in the same place and 667 00:24:27,289 --> 00:24:26,039 and then they kill it that dies you go 668 00:24:29,210 --> 00:24:27,299 back three or four days later and where 669 00:24:30,770 --> 00:24:29,220 they've walked it's dyed and all the all 670 00:24:33,350 --> 00:24:30,780 the areas to the left and right of that 671 00:24:35,690 --> 00:24:33,360 are still perfectly intact so how do you 672 00:24:37,549 --> 00:24:35,700 walk on the crop and kill it and and 673 00:24:39,770 --> 00:24:37,559 then if it was crushed with boards and 674 00:24:41,390 --> 00:24:39,780 rope why isn't that dying as well 675 00:24:44,090 --> 00:24:41,400 because that would cause more damage 676 00:24:45,710 --> 00:24:44,100 than people walking on it so so that to 677 00:24:47,630 --> 00:24:45,720 me is a problem 678 00:24:51,110 --> 00:24:47,640 um and then and then quite often in in 679 00:24:52,970 --> 00:24:51,120 I've seen this not in um oil seed rate 680 00:24:54,110 --> 00:24:52,980 formations being barley and wheat many 681 00:24:56,029 --> 00:24:54,120 times 682 00:24:57,830 --> 00:24:56,039 you'll see this beautiful geometric 683 00:24:59,450 --> 00:24:57,840 shape 684 00:25:01,549 --> 00:24:59,460 and then you'll look at the crop and 685 00:25:03,289 --> 00:25:01,559 they'll be laid say the crop is going 686 00:25:05,210 --> 00:25:03,299 away from you or it might be basket 687 00:25:07,070 --> 00:25:05,220 weaved or there might be areas where 688 00:25:08,690 --> 00:25:07,080 there's several layers intersecting and 689 00:25:10,130 --> 00:25:08,700 it's beautifully laying over itself in 690 00:25:13,190 --> 00:25:10,140 this in section not not just 691 00:25:15,470 --> 00:25:13,200 haphazardous it's an Elegance of care 692 00:25:17,450 --> 00:25:15,480 and attention to detail that's been 693 00:25:20,510 --> 00:25:17,460 placed into the way these intersecting 694 00:25:22,190 --> 00:25:20,520 paths will have met up 695 00:25:23,810 --> 00:25:22,200 um and then and then you'll see that the 696 00:25:25,370 --> 00:25:23,820 crop maybe for example is going away 697 00:25:27,230 --> 00:25:25,380 from you and then you look at the each 698 00:25:29,210 --> 00:25:27,240 side where the standing crop is where it 699 00:25:31,909 --> 00:25:29,220 just up against the sides and you might 700 00:25:35,090 --> 00:25:31,919 see two or three stalks going in the 701 00:25:37,909 --> 00:25:35,100 opposite direction at the edges 702 00:25:40,789 --> 00:25:37,919 now if you work out the square 703 00:25:43,789 --> 00:25:40,799 you know meter Ridge of inside of all of 704 00:25:47,090 --> 00:25:43,799 the shapes over 400 500 foot formation 705 00:25:50,090 --> 00:25:47,100 and you consider that somebody then we 706 00:25:52,610 --> 00:25:50,100 have to believe walked around and laid 707 00:25:55,070 --> 00:25:52,620 down two or three stems in the opposite 708 00:25:56,570 --> 00:25:55,080 direction of the main area when we are 709 00:25:59,390 --> 00:25:56,580 told they need to get in and get out 710 00:26:01,610 --> 00:25:59,400 within four or five hours I I can't 711 00:26:04,669 --> 00:26:01,620 accept that 712 00:26:06,049 --> 00:26:04,679 simply I can't and and you know and if 713 00:26:07,430 --> 00:26:06,059 you ask them to say well can you just 714 00:26:09,230 --> 00:26:07,440 demonstrate that to us then all the 715 00:26:11,750 --> 00:26:09,240 people that claim that they make them of 716 00:26:14,570 --> 00:26:11,760 course they don't so so I remain 717 00:26:16,310 --> 00:26:14,580 skeptical of their claims that they can 718 00:26:18,470 --> 00:26:16,320 do these things in the time frame that 719 00:26:20,510 --> 00:26:18,480 they can do them that's number one yeah 720 00:26:23,149 --> 00:26:20,520 number two that they do it without 721 00:26:24,830 --> 00:26:23,159 damaging the crop in any way 722 00:26:26,870 --> 00:26:24,840 and number three that they pull off 723 00:26:28,909 --> 00:26:26,880 these little intricacies which would 724 00:26:30,710 --> 00:26:28,919 take more time 725 00:26:32,210 --> 00:26:30,720 and and they don't seem to need that 726 00:26:34,310 --> 00:26:32,220 time because they can still do it in the 727 00:26:35,750 --> 00:26:34,320 dark in four or five hours so I have a 728 00:26:37,730 --> 00:26:35,760 big problem with those 729 00:26:40,070 --> 00:26:37,740 those factors 730 00:26:42,049 --> 00:26:40,080 so as that has there ever been and I'll 731 00:26:45,110 --> 00:26:42,059 open this up to both of you a crop 732 00:26:47,330 --> 00:26:45,120 circle you've gone to investigate that 733 00:26:49,730 --> 00:26:47,340 you've been fooled by because it sounds 734 00:26:52,310 --> 00:26:49,740 like you've both ample gave me some 735 00:26:54,169 --> 00:26:52,320 wonderful examples of these are signs 736 00:26:56,450 --> 00:26:54,179 that this is man-made you know like the 737 00:26:58,010 --> 00:26:56,460 damage you know the the the board 738 00:26:59,570 --> 00:26:58,020 markings all that kind of stuff that 739 00:27:01,130 --> 00:26:59,580 makes sense has there ever been one 740 00:27:03,529 --> 00:27:01,140 you've gone to and thought this looks 741 00:27:05,750 --> 00:27:03,539 genuine but then you've come to find has 742 00:27:09,710 --> 00:27:05,760 been man-made or are the signs that 743 00:27:13,070 --> 00:27:09,720 start between genuine and man-made 744 00:27:15,950 --> 00:27:13,730 um 745 00:27:17,690 --> 00:27:15,960 I mean it's healthy isn't it to be 746 00:27:20,810 --> 00:27:17,700 skeptical into it and to have to do your 747 00:27:22,310 --> 00:27:20,820 due diligence and so so sometimes yes 748 00:27:24,110 --> 00:27:22,320 you go to crop circles and one of the 749 00:27:25,549 --> 00:27:24,120 one of the big catch-outs you see for 750 00:27:27,110 --> 00:27:25,559 the early researchers one of the people 751 00:27:28,850 --> 00:27:27,120 like Colin Andrews and people who got 752 00:27:30,169 --> 00:27:28,860 caught out was that the media seemed to 753 00:27:31,909 --> 00:27:30,179 play this trick on them in the early 754 00:27:33,470 --> 00:27:31,919 days where they they'd have a crop 755 00:27:35,149 --> 00:27:33,480 circle commissioned and then they'd pull 756 00:27:36,649 --> 00:27:35,159 these people in like Colin Andrews get 757 00:27:38,450 --> 00:27:36,659 them in there stick a microphone up 758 00:27:40,310 --> 00:27:38,460 their bugle and say what do you think of 759 00:27:42,049 --> 00:27:40,320 this one then and and you know and if 760 00:27:43,730 --> 00:27:42,059 they declared it to be something they 761 00:27:45,169 --> 00:27:43,740 thought was interesting and then they 762 00:27:47,330 --> 00:27:45,179 pulled these guys out of the cupboard 763 00:27:49,190 --> 00:27:47,340 and said look we had this made then the 764 00:27:51,649 --> 00:27:49,200 whole baby gets thrown out with a bath 765 00:27:53,450 --> 00:27:51,659 water so we all kind of learned from 766 00:27:55,190 --> 00:27:53,460 their bad experiences good people like 767 00:27:56,930 --> 00:27:55,200 Pat Delgado and all the rest of it that 768 00:27:59,570 --> 00:27:56,940 you know there's nasty games going on 769 00:28:01,549 --> 00:27:59,580 with what the media are portraying so so 770 00:28:03,289 --> 00:28:01,559 we wouldn't be so public in saying oh 771 00:28:04,430 --> 00:28:03,299 yeah I declare this to be a genuine 772 00:28:06,409 --> 00:28:04,440 because you could get your head chopped 773 00:28:07,850 --> 00:28:06,419 off but in your own way you might go oh 774 00:28:09,649 --> 00:28:07,860 I like this one this looks interesting 775 00:28:11,390 --> 00:28:09,659 and then later on someone puts up some 776 00:28:13,010 --> 00:28:11,400 evidence and says well you know these 777 00:28:14,510 --> 00:28:13,020 guys saw these guys hanging around and 778 00:28:16,789 --> 00:28:14,520 there's this video and you go oh well 779 00:28:18,649 --> 00:28:16,799 maybe that's a doubt and so over the 780 00:28:21,710 --> 00:28:18,659 years then when you've been to you know 781 00:28:23,630 --> 00:28:21,720 800 900 000 crop circles or whatever you 782 00:28:25,789 --> 00:28:23,640 say okay let me let's be reasonable here 783 00:28:27,830 --> 00:28:25,799 let's lay out all those 7 000 photos 784 00:28:29,149 --> 00:28:27,840 that have crop circles that we know have 785 00:28:31,370 --> 00:28:29,159 appeared around the world on the on the 786 00:28:33,710 --> 00:28:31,380 metaphorical table in front of us 787 00:28:35,510 --> 00:28:33,720 and let's let's agree together what ones 788 00:28:36,710 --> 00:28:35,520 we think are definitely man-made and 789 00:28:39,110 --> 00:28:36,720 we'll put all those on the left hand 790 00:28:41,269 --> 00:28:39,120 side then what ones we're not sure about 791 00:28:43,430 --> 00:28:41,279 we'll stick them in the middle and what 792 00:28:45,230 --> 00:28:43,440 one's out of the 7000 we think there's 793 00:28:46,730 --> 00:28:45,240 definitely no way people could have made 794 00:28:49,190 --> 00:28:46,740 those and there's definitely a problem 795 00:28:50,510 --> 00:28:49,200 with us accepting anybody's claim that 796 00:28:52,549 --> 00:28:50,520 they popped out and did that after the 797 00:28:55,130 --> 00:28:52,559 pub and we put those over the right hand 798 00:28:57,830 --> 00:28:55,140 side let's talk about those 799 00:28:59,750 --> 00:28:57,840 let's stop talking about hey no is this 800 00:29:01,730 --> 00:28:59,760 one genuine is that one genuine no one 801 00:29:04,909 --> 00:29:01,740 wants to have that debate 802 00:29:07,490 --> 00:29:04,919 I also I mean personally I also think 803 00:29:09,649 --> 00:29:07,500 it's much more 804 00:29:12,649 --> 00:29:09,659 um complicated than just looking at the 805 00:29:15,049 --> 00:29:12,659 physicality of the circle so for for me 806 00:29:18,409 --> 00:29:15,059 one and for Gary also but 807 00:29:20,510 --> 00:29:18,419 um I'm very interested in their 808 00:29:24,470 --> 00:29:20,520 placement on the landscape I'm very 809 00:29:27,409 --> 00:29:24,480 interested in the geometry and design 810 00:29:29,750 --> 00:29:27,419 um and um so I want to build up a bigger 811 00:29:33,649 --> 00:29:29,760 picture other than just what's kind of 812 00:29:35,330 --> 00:29:33,659 going on with the crops and I actually 813 00:29:38,510 --> 00:29:35,340 quite difficult 814 00:29:40,010 --> 00:29:38,520 um to make a judgment and and it's like 815 00:29:42,590 --> 00:29:40,020 Gary was saying 816 00:29:44,389 --> 00:29:42,600 um you know as researchers we all kind 817 00:29:46,669 --> 00:29:44,399 of discussed might get together and 818 00:29:49,789 --> 00:29:46,679 discuss certain crop circles between us 819 00:29:51,950 --> 00:29:49,799 and we might say yeah liked that one a 820 00:29:54,169 --> 00:29:51,960 lot wasn't really sure about that one 821 00:29:57,230 --> 00:29:54,179 really don't know about that one you 822 00:29:58,730 --> 00:29:57,240 know um and and that's kind of how we 823 00:30:01,610 --> 00:29:58,740 deal with it really 824 00:30:03,470 --> 00:30:01,620 um and as Gary said you know there been 825 00:30:06,230 --> 00:30:03,480 lots of games kind of played with crop 826 00:30:08,149 --> 00:30:06,240 circles over the years and you know 827 00:30:09,769 --> 00:30:08,159 people who want to make fools and 828 00:30:12,529 --> 00:30:09,779 ridicule you know I mean we talk about 829 00:30:14,149 --> 00:30:12,539 it in in the UAP subject how ridicule is 830 00:30:16,610 --> 00:30:14,159 being used 831 00:30:18,110 --> 00:30:16,620 um you know to to persecute and and 832 00:30:19,430 --> 00:30:18,120 damage 833 00:30:21,470 --> 00:30:19,440 um researchers and their reputations 834 00:30:24,169 --> 00:30:21,480 it's exactly the same in the in the crop 835 00:30:26,450 --> 00:30:24,179 circle world as well so I would I would 836 00:30:28,909 --> 00:30:26,460 want to widen the scope I'd want to 837 00:30:31,970 --> 00:30:28,919 widen the picture I'd want to look at 838 00:30:34,370 --> 00:30:31,980 how you know not not just to think about 839 00:30:37,250 --> 00:30:34,380 you know the physicality of it I have to 840 00:30:39,470 --> 00:30:37,260 say say that I actually did try once to 841 00:30:40,730 --> 00:30:39,480 make a crop circle when I was very young 842 00:30:42,889 --> 00:30:40,740 and 843 00:30:44,210 --> 00:30:42,899 um because I wanted to know what was 844 00:30:46,010 --> 00:30:44,220 possible 845 00:30:48,230 --> 00:30:46,020 um and so it's you know it's something 846 00:30:51,350 --> 00:30:48,240 that that I did with a group of other 847 00:30:52,850 --> 00:30:51,360 researchers it was very hard and we 848 00:30:57,110 --> 00:30:52,860 didn't it didn't make a big crop circle 849 00:30:59,810 --> 00:30:57,120 and I completely jammed the geometry up 850 00:31:01,850 --> 00:30:59,820 um and it you know it what it taught me 851 00:31:04,549 --> 00:31:01,860 was that it's actually very difficult to 852 00:31:07,130 --> 00:31:04,559 do so you know even just making 853 00:31:09,889 --> 00:31:07,140 something small and simple 854 00:31:11,450 --> 00:31:09,899 um so that taught me immediately you 855 00:31:13,490 --> 00:31:11,460 know to have some respect for what was 856 00:31:15,230 --> 00:31:13,500 going on in the field 857 00:31:17,029 --> 00:31:15,240 um and and also because I draw them 858 00:31:19,490 --> 00:31:17,039 regularly 859 00:31:22,310 --> 00:31:19,500 um that is one of the the best ways to 860 00:31:25,430 --> 00:31:22,320 to kind of you know really get a handle 861 00:31:27,470 --> 00:31:25,440 on on what would be involved in if you 862 00:31:30,230 --> 00:31:27,480 were actually to think about going into 863 00:31:32,029 --> 00:31:30,240 a field and making one of these so so 864 00:31:34,010 --> 00:31:32,039 yeah so I want to look at that I also 865 00:31:38,810 --> 00:31:34,020 want to listen to people's experiences 866 00:31:40,490 --> 00:31:38,820 because us you know in addition to the 867 00:31:42,470 --> 00:31:40,500 physicality of the circles there are 868 00:31:44,990 --> 00:31:42,480 people's experiences and Gary's is a 869 00:31:47,090 --> 00:31:45,000 great experience I've had my own 870 00:31:49,310 --> 00:31:47,100 um you know I would consider myself a 871 00:31:51,470 --> 00:31:49,320 crop circle experiencer 872 00:31:54,289 --> 00:31:51,480 um in the sense that you know I've 873 00:31:56,450 --> 00:31:54,299 encountered a lot of high strangeness in 874 00:31:59,389 --> 00:31:56,460 and around the crop circles also some of 875 00:32:01,850 --> 00:31:59,399 which I brought home to my own home just 876 00:32:05,570 --> 00:32:01,860 like The Hitchhiker phenomenon that gets 877 00:32:07,490 --> 00:32:05,580 talked about a lot so um so there's so 878 00:32:09,710 --> 00:32:07,500 there's that whole side to it you know I 879 00:32:11,450 --> 00:32:09,720 mean there are so many parallels in a 880 00:32:12,769 --> 00:32:11,460 way to what goes on with the crops in 881 00:32:15,409 --> 00:32:12,779 the crop circle world and what goes on 882 00:32:16,970 --> 00:32:15,419 in the UFO world you know it's just that 883 00:32:19,850 --> 00:32:16,980 perhaps the crop circle world is a 884 00:32:21,190 --> 00:32:19,860 little bit less known so the idea that 885 00:32:24,169 --> 00:32:21,200 you know we might have crop circle 886 00:32:26,269 --> 00:32:24,179 experiences you know people who I've 887 00:32:27,950 --> 00:32:26,279 experienced some very strange things in 888 00:32:30,409 --> 00:32:27,960 and around the circles or feel that they 889 00:32:33,590 --> 00:32:30,419 have a connection with whatever the 890 00:32:35,510 --> 00:32:33,600 phenomenon is behind the crop circles 891 00:32:36,950 --> 00:32:35,520 um you know is is sometimes a new thing 892 00:32:38,810 --> 00:32:36,960 for people they don't kind of understand 893 00:32:41,750 --> 00:32:38,820 that that goes on but it most certainly 894 00:32:43,669 --> 00:32:41,760 does and that's kind of where my real 895 00:32:45,830 --> 00:32:43,679 interest lies you know I love the 896 00:32:48,470 --> 00:32:45,840 geometry of them I love drawing them I 897 00:32:53,810 --> 00:32:48,480 love teaching people how to draw them 898 00:32:55,789 --> 00:32:53,820 um but I am most involved in in the the 899 00:32:57,649 --> 00:32:55,799 the kind of the human response side to 900 00:32:59,810 --> 00:32:57,659 it I mean one of the things that I did 901 00:33:02,090 --> 00:32:59,820 very early on when I first got involved 902 00:33:03,049 --> 00:33:02,100 with the circles was actually I I went 903 00:33:04,909 --> 00:33:03,059 and did 904 00:33:07,190 --> 00:33:04,919 um some um 905 00:33:09,889 --> 00:33:07,200 um what did he call it oh ambassador to 906 00:33:12,470 --> 00:33:09,899 the cosmos training with Stephen Greer 907 00:33:15,409 --> 00:33:12,480 um back in 1993 because I was very 908 00:33:17,870 --> 00:33:15,419 interested in this idea of 909 00:33:19,970 --> 00:33:17,880 um the phenomenon being 910 00:33:22,190 --> 00:33:19,980 um interactive so that you know that 911 00:33:24,289 --> 00:33:22,200 there was a way of 912 00:33:26,570 --> 00:33:24,299 um trying to pursue some sort of contact 913 00:33:28,669 --> 00:33:26,580 or communication 914 00:33:30,889 --> 00:33:28,679 um and and again in the early 90s I was 915 00:33:32,509 --> 00:33:30,899 involved in in doing my own work with 916 00:33:34,190 --> 00:33:32,519 that you're kind of taking a little bit 917 00:33:37,730 --> 00:33:34,200 of what I'd learned with the Stephen 918 00:33:39,590 --> 00:33:37,740 Greer thing and then applying it to this 919 00:33:42,289 --> 00:33:39,600 phenomenon and you know we use 920 00:33:42,950 --> 00:33:42,299 meditative techniques 921 00:33:49,009 --> 00:33:42,960 um 922 00:33:50,810 --> 00:33:49,019 we did a crop watch we we did an 923 00:33:52,909 --> 00:33:50,820 overnight watches we went out we watched 924 00:33:55,610 --> 00:33:52,919 the night sky and the fields we and we 925 00:33:57,710 --> 00:33:55,620 had some amazing experiences 926 00:33:59,630 --> 00:33:57,720 um so you know to me there has always 927 00:34:01,610 --> 00:33:59,640 been a deep connection and I've kind of 928 00:34:03,830 --> 00:34:01,620 always had my foot in both camps I've 929 00:34:06,350 --> 00:34:03,840 always had my foot very firmly in the 930 00:34:10,010 --> 00:34:06,360 crop circle camp but also in the UAP 931 00:34:13,310 --> 00:34:10,020 camp or UFO Camp because I see really 932 00:34:15,050 --> 00:34:13,320 deep connections between the two 933 00:34:17,089 --> 00:34:15,060 there's a lot there from both of you 934 00:34:20,270 --> 00:34:17,099 I've not even considered an even a 935 00:34:22,129 --> 00:34:20,280 simple Gary when you mentioned a field 936 00:34:23,990 --> 00:34:22,139 there aren't always level and flat 937 00:34:25,310 --> 00:34:24,000 ground I think you're you see a picture 938 00:34:28,190 --> 00:34:25,320 of a crop circle they're always 939 00:34:29,710 --> 00:34:28,200 obviously from above and you get usually 940 00:34:32,510 --> 00:34:29,720 a relatively 941 00:34:34,070 --> 00:34:32,520 cropped texture don't you of of that 942 00:34:36,409 --> 00:34:34,080 that it's not the whole shot of the 943 00:34:37,669 --> 00:34:36,419 ladder so all you see is oh well it's a 944 00:34:39,409 --> 00:34:37,679 flat piece of ground and it's been done 945 00:34:40,970 --> 00:34:39,419 and I've never considered well that 946 00:34:43,010 --> 00:34:40,980 could be halfway up a hill and in this 947 00:34:44,930 --> 00:34:43,020 part could be moving down and that kind 948 00:34:46,909 --> 00:34:44,940 of intricacy would again make it 949 00:34:48,589 --> 00:34:46,919 infinitely much more difficult to 950 00:34:50,869 --> 00:34:48,599 replicate not that I'm saying for any 951 00:34:53,089 --> 00:34:50,879 Skeptics it couldn't still be done in a 952 00:34:55,609 --> 00:34:53,099 way and I'm sure it's been attempted but 953 00:34:57,650 --> 00:34:55,619 it just adds to that kind of nuance in 954 00:34:59,690 --> 00:34:57,660 different levels I just want to ask you 955 00:35:02,690 --> 00:34:59,700 Karen you mentioned about experiences 956 00:35:04,910 --> 00:35:02,700 that happen within crop circles and the 957 00:35:06,829 --> 00:35:04,920 UFO topic and crop circles are 958 00:35:09,710 --> 00:35:06,839 inextricably linked and always will be 959 00:35:12,950 --> 00:35:09,720 and some would wonder what makes the 960 00:35:16,069 --> 00:35:12,960 crop circles themselves is it orbs uh 961 00:35:18,170 --> 00:35:16,079 receive videos of that online uh used as 962 00:35:20,030 --> 00:35:18,180 a some kind of craft is it something 963 00:35:21,710 --> 00:35:20,040 else and I just wonder if you can tell 964 00:35:24,109 --> 00:35:21,720 us what some of those experiences you've 965 00:35:26,450 --> 00:35:24,119 had okay so 966 00:35:28,970 --> 00:35:26,460 um one of the big experiences for me was 967 00:35:30,829 --> 00:35:28,980 very very early on um and it was to do 968 00:35:32,930 --> 00:35:30,839 with the appearance of a crop circle in 969 00:35:35,569 --> 00:35:32,940 leicestershire in 1993 because I didn't 970 00:35:37,130 --> 00:35:35,579 always live in the south UK of the UK 971 00:35:39,109 --> 00:35:37,140 like I could do now actually up in the 972 00:35:40,730 --> 00:35:39,119 Midlands I grew up just outside of 973 00:35:41,810 --> 00:35:40,740 Sheffield 974 00:35:44,270 --> 00:35:41,820 um and 975 00:35:45,950 --> 00:35:44,280 um we had gotten a group together a very 976 00:35:47,810 --> 00:35:45,960 very small group of seven others who 977 00:35:50,270 --> 00:35:47,820 were really interested in this idea of 978 00:35:51,950 --> 00:35:50,280 interaction and 979 00:35:53,750 --> 00:35:51,960 um we decided that we were going to try 980 00:35:55,310 --> 00:35:53,760 several things we decided we were going 981 00:35:57,530 --> 00:35:55,320 to try some 982 00:35:59,329 --> 00:35:57,540 um some Consciousness work so 983 00:36:02,270 --> 00:35:59,339 um that involved several different types 984 00:36:04,790 --> 00:36:02,280 of meditation we had an um a meditation 985 00:36:07,130 --> 00:36:04,800 one evening where we would 986 00:36:09,170 --> 00:36:07,140 um visualize walking into a field and 987 00:36:11,210 --> 00:36:09,180 then what would we see and then drawing 988 00:36:13,550 --> 00:36:11,220 it afterwards 989 00:36:16,670 --> 00:36:13,560 um we would also you know use meditation 990 00:36:18,950 --> 00:36:16,680 to kind of reach out just like in in a 991 00:36:21,050 --> 00:36:18,960 way in the way that the early sea City 992 00:36:23,270 --> 00:36:21,060 people did 993 00:36:25,670 --> 00:36:23,280 um using consciousness is a way of 994 00:36:27,470 --> 00:36:25,680 connecting to whatever else was going on 995 00:36:31,130 --> 00:36:27,480 around this 996 00:36:33,349 --> 00:36:31,140 um and that summer we had also done a 997 00:36:35,510 --> 00:36:33,359 crop watch at a place 998 00:36:37,490 --> 00:36:35,520 um again in in leicestershire 999 00:36:39,710 --> 00:36:37,500 um where there had been circles that had 1000 00:36:41,089 --> 00:36:39,720 appeared there a lot over the years and 1001 00:36:42,349 --> 00:36:41,099 in fact the field was at a place called 1002 00:36:43,970 --> 00:36:42,359 husband's Bosworth and the field 1003 00:36:46,010 --> 00:36:43,980 actually was known as Old Faithful 1004 00:36:48,650 --> 00:36:46,020 because there would be a crop circle of 1005 00:36:52,010 --> 00:36:48,660 one kind or another each year 1006 00:36:54,710 --> 00:36:52,020 um and we had gone that year to do 1007 00:36:56,390 --> 00:36:54,720 um a crop watch that summer 1008 00:36:58,609 --> 00:36:56,400 um and we found that actually the crop 1009 00:37:00,530 --> 00:36:58,619 had failed in the field and it was It 1010 00:37:03,050 --> 00:37:00,540 was kind of really sad but we decided we 1011 00:37:05,990 --> 00:37:03,060 would still go there because we had been 1012 00:37:07,670 --> 00:37:06,000 using that location during our 1013 00:37:10,010 --> 00:37:07,680 Consciousness work 1014 00:37:12,650 --> 00:37:10,020 when we went there on the evening we we 1015 00:37:15,710 --> 00:37:12,660 had this incredible UFO sighting 1016 00:37:17,450 --> 00:37:15,720 um and um there were two lights in the 1017 00:37:19,370 --> 00:37:17,460 sky it was I can't remember whether it 1018 00:37:20,810 --> 00:37:19,380 was a full moon or just coming up to a 1019 00:37:23,450 --> 00:37:20,820 Full Moon 1020 00:37:25,430 --> 00:37:23,460 um there would do lights a larger light 1021 00:37:27,890 --> 00:37:25,440 and then a small one following behind 1022 00:37:30,530 --> 00:37:27,900 but kind of this the the smaller one 1023 00:37:31,609 --> 00:37:30,540 would kind of be moving around a little 1024 00:37:33,470 --> 00:37:31,619 bit 1025 00:37:36,349 --> 00:37:33,480 um but they seemed to be moving to also 1026 00:37:38,329 --> 00:37:36,359 seem to be moving in unison and we were 1027 00:37:40,069 --> 00:37:38,339 we sat we were all watching this we were 1028 00:37:42,050 --> 00:37:40,079 sat on the ground we were watching it 1029 00:37:43,849 --> 00:37:42,060 went into the aura of the Moon because 1030 00:37:46,609 --> 00:37:43,859 it was a night 1031 00:37:48,829 --> 00:37:46,619 um that there was no Cloud so there was 1032 00:37:50,569 --> 00:37:48,839 this big Aura of light around the moon 1033 00:37:54,349 --> 00:37:50,579 and it just didn't come out the other 1034 00:37:55,970 --> 00:37:54,359 side and we were all pretty wild by that 1035 00:37:58,550 --> 00:37:55,980 um it so it was very high up whatever 1036 00:38:00,349 --> 00:37:58,560 whatever it was 1037 00:38:02,990 --> 00:38:00,359 um and the the bigger light of the two 1038 00:38:04,730 --> 00:38:03,000 was was quite big it was it was many 1039 00:38:06,470 --> 00:38:04,740 times bigger than a star whereas 1040 00:38:08,569 --> 00:38:06,480 probably the one that was moving behind 1041 00:38:11,210 --> 00:38:08,579 you would say that it it would perhaps 1042 00:38:15,770 --> 00:38:11,220 look the size of maybe like Venus does 1043 00:38:18,290 --> 00:38:15,780 when it comes up in in in the night sky 1044 00:38:19,910 --> 00:38:18,300 but what was most amazing about that was 1045 00:38:21,349 --> 00:38:19,920 that we were not the only ones that had 1046 00:38:23,390 --> 00:38:21,359 seen it in fact there were two other 1047 00:38:25,790 --> 00:38:23,400 groups one of which I was involved with 1048 00:38:28,790 --> 00:38:25,800 one down in Sussex and also one in 1049 00:38:30,410 --> 00:38:28,800 Wiltshire and the group in Wiltshire 1050 00:38:33,050 --> 00:38:30,420 um actually one of those group members 1051 00:38:35,630 --> 00:38:33,060 was was Steve my husband who I had not 1052 00:38:38,030 --> 00:38:35,640 yet met at this point so 1053 00:38:40,310 --> 00:38:38,040 um and they also described seeing 1054 00:38:42,650 --> 00:38:40,320 exactly the same thing from all the 1055 00:38:45,230 --> 00:38:42,660 three locations all the way sort of down 1056 00:38:47,390 --> 00:38:45,240 the country which was really fascinating 1057 00:38:49,730 --> 00:38:47,400 and because we were all kind of engaged 1058 00:38:51,589 --> 00:38:49,740 in the same kind of work that was even 1059 00:38:52,849 --> 00:38:51,599 more fascinating 1060 00:38:55,609 --> 00:38:52,859 so 1061 00:38:58,310 --> 00:38:55,619 a couple of weeks go by and I get a 1062 00:39:01,130 --> 00:38:58,320 phone call from one of my colleagues a 1063 00:39:02,990 --> 00:39:01,140 guy called Mark and he told me that 1064 00:39:04,069 --> 00:39:03,000 there had been a report of a huge crop 1065 00:39:05,030 --> 00:39:04,079 circle 1066 00:39:07,010 --> 00:39:05,040 um 1067 00:39:10,910 --> 00:39:07,020 at a place called Charlie Knoll which is 1068 00:39:13,130 --> 00:39:10,920 actually a farm just off of the M1 I 1069 00:39:15,290 --> 00:39:13,140 think about I think it's Junction 23A 1070 00:39:17,210 --> 00:39:15,300 something like that and I thought he was 1071 00:39:19,370 --> 00:39:17,220 having me on I thought because he was a 1072 00:39:21,290 --> 00:39:19,380 bit of a joker you know and 1073 00:39:23,450 --> 00:39:21,300 um we didn't get big crop circles in 1074 00:39:24,650 --> 00:39:23,460 that part of the country at that time we 1075 00:39:27,170 --> 00:39:24,660 kind of had 1076 00:39:29,089 --> 00:39:27,180 um you know some and we had some really 1077 00:39:32,329 --> 00:39:29,099 nice ones but they tended to be sort of 1078 00:39:34,250 --> 00:39:32,339 circles circles with rings maybe 1079 00:39:37,130 --> 00:39:34,260 um lines and boxes because it was still 1080 00:39:39,950 --> 00:39:37,140 very early in the in the 90s 1081 00:39:41,329 --> 00:39:39,960 um and I I kind of caught this Bluff and 1082 00:39:43,310 --> 00:39:41,339 I said okay we'll come around pick me up 1083 00:39:46,490 --> 00:39:43,320 we'll go and have a look you know 1084 00:39:49,490 --> 00:39:46,500 so we um so off we went we went down the 1085 00:39:51,410 --> 00:39:49,500 down the motorway and we turned the car 1086 00:39:53,870 --> 00:39:51,420 around we came back up and there it was 1087 00:39:55,730 --> 00:39:53,880 and there was this huge 1088 00:39:58,970 --> 00:39:55,740 um formation in the field it was like a 1089 00:40:01,970 --> 00:39:58,980 big huge crucifix formation 1090 00:40:04,730 --> 00:40:01,980 um so it had a long line and then a 1091 00:40:08,510 --> 00:40:04,740 shorter one just like a crucifix but 1092 00:40:10,730 --> 00:40:08,520 then on each of the the the three points 1093 00:40:12,770 --> 00:40:10,740 at the top there were I think there was 1094 00:40:14,630 --> 00:40:12,780 a circle there was a ringed Circle one 1095 00:40:16,550 --> 00:40:14,640 of them had a circle with a ratchet 1096 00:40:18,170 --> 00:40:16,560 around it 1097 00:40:20,210 --> 00:40:18,180 was 1098 00:40:21,829 --> 00:40:20,220 um down the body of the the main line 1099 00:40:23,569 --> 00:40:21,839 and then finally at the end there was a 1100 00:40:24,770 --> 00:40:23,579 circle with kind of little key on the 1101 00:40:26,690 --> 00:40:24,780 end of it 1102 00:40:29,870 --> 00:40:26,700 um and it must have been 1103 00:40:31,550 --> 00:40:29,880 300 350 feet in length it was absolutely 1104 00:40:34,190 --> 00:40:31,560 huge 1105 00:40:35,870 --> 00:40:34,200 um but what we began to we we went to 1106 00:40:38,030 --> 00:40:35,880 see the farmer's wife because we wanted 1107 00:40:39,109 --> 00:40:38,040 to go and have a look she was really 1108 00:40:41,930 --> 00:40:39,119 great 1109 00:40:44,210 --> 00:40:41,940 um she told us that she normally takes 1110 00:40:46,430 --> 00:40:44,220 her dogs out and the field is actually 1111 00:40:48,829 --> 00:40:46,440 really near The Farmhouse but they'd 1112 00:40:50,930 --> 00:40:48,839 heard nothing that night or seen nothing 1113 00:40:52,069 --> 00:40:50,940 but when she let the dogs out in the 1114 00:40:54,050 --> 00:40:52,079 morning they wouldn't go in the field 1115 00:40:55,550 --> 00:40:54,060 and she said normally she would have to 1116 00:40:57,290 --> 00:40:55,560 call them out you know they'd run down 1117 00:40:59,390 --> 00:40:57,300 the track to lines and she would have to 1118 00:41:02,089 --> 00:40:59,400 call them back they wouldn't go anywhere 1119 00:41:04,190 --> 00:41:02,099 near the field and they they just sat 1120 00:41:06,170 --> 00:41:04,200 side of the field they wouldn't you know 1121 00:41:07,609 --> 00:41:06,180 sort of have anything to and she could 1122 00:41:09,349 --> 00:41:07,619 see it from there 1123 00:41:11,270 --> 00:41:09,359 and as she walked in the dogs wouldn't 1124 00:41:13,310 --> 00:41:11,280 come in the field with her you know she 1125 00:41:14,510 --> 00:41:13,320 tried to sort of you know get them to 1126 00:41:15,890 --> 00:41:14,520 come in the field they were having none 1127 00:41:18,530 --> 00:41:15,900 of it 1128 00:41:20,569 --> 00:41:18,540 um but what we began to realize Andy was 1129 00:41:22,010 --> 00:41:20,579 when we talked to her that this crop 1130 00:41:25,190 --> 00:41:22,020 circle had actually been there a few 1131 00:41:27,890 --> 00:41:25,200 days and and the circle had happened on 1132 00:41:29,510 --> 00:41:27,900 the 7th of July which was the seventh 1133 00:41:32,630 --> 00:41:29,520 day of the seventh month there'd been 1134 00:41:34,370 --> 00:41:32,640 seven members of our group 1135 00:41:37,250 --> 00:41:34,380 um and when we looked at where this crop 1136 00:41:39,170 --> 00:41:37,260 circle was on a map it was bang in the 1137 00:41:42,010 --> 00:41:39,180 middle of the two sites where we had 1138 00:41:44,510 --> 00:41:42,020 done our meditation work so 1139 00:41:46,730 --> 00:41:44,520 synchronicities here were beginning to 1140 00:41:48,530 --> 00:41:46,740 sort of pile up and pile up and pile up 1141 00:41:52,970 --> 00:41:48,540 and I 1142 00:41:55,370 --> 00:41:52,980 fascinating you know that here was 1143 00:41:57,770 --> 00:41:55,380 something that seemed like it was some 1144 00:41:59,089 --> 00:41:57,780 kind of response to what we had been 1145 00:42:02,150 --> 00:41:59,099 doing 1146 00:42:04,730 --> 00:42:02,160 um and um and I I there were many other 1147 00:42:07,790 --> 00:42:04,740 researchers done I I had a friend who 1148 00:42:10,130 --> 00:42:07,800 was a surveyor and he brought his 1149 00:42:11,329 --> 00:42:10,140 theodolite into the field and we took 1150 00:42:13,490 --> 00:42:11,339 measurements because I wanted an 1151 00:42:16,670 --> 00:42:13,500 accurate survey 1152 00:42:19,010 --> 00:42:16,680 um and when we got when we got those 1153 00:42:21,829 --> 00:42:19,020 um numbers home we couldn't convert them 1154 00:42:23,930 --> 00:42:21,839 they were just absolute rubbish for I 1155 00:42:26,569 --> 00:42:23,940 just don't understand how that happened 1156 00:42:27,770 --> 00:42:26,579 but there it was all the all the survey 1157 00:42:31,069 --> 00:42:27,780 measurements that we take with the 1158 00:42:32,390 --> 00:42:31,079 theodorite that day were useless 1159 00:42:33,170 --> 00:42:32,400 um and 1160 00:42:35,089 --> 00:42:33,180 um 1161 00:42:36,470 --> 00:42:35,099 Wheels a friend of mine took a picture 1162 00:42:39,050 --> 00:42:36,480 of 1163 00:42:40,910 --> 00:42:39,060 um a UFO from that field as well so that 1164 00:42:42,770 --> 00:42:40,920 was interesting too 1165 00:42:46,609 --> 00:42:42,780 um and eventually I wrote it up into a 1166 00:42:48,950 --> 00:42:46,619 into a small book but it was just the 1167 00:42:51,109 --> 00:42:48,960 level of 1168 00:42:54,290 --> 00:42:51,119 um synchronicity kind of going on with 1169 00:42:56,030 --> 00:42:54,300 that just kind of showed that there was 1170 00:42:59,809 --> 00:42:56,040 something going on here that was really 1171 00:43:01,609 --> 00:42:59,819 worthy of pursuit and you know of it you 1172 00:43:03,770 --> 00:43:01,619 know of interest and you know whether 1173 00:43:06,410 --> 00:43:03,780 you want to think of it on the terms of 1174 00:43:08,210 --> 00:43:06,420 you know being connected through the 1175 00:43:10,730 --> 00:43:08,220 collective unconscious say a jungian 1176 00:43:12,770 --> 00:43:10,740 point of view or 1177 00:43:14,990 --> 00:43:12,780 um even if you want to go down the route 1178 00:43:16,730 --> 00:43:15,000 of site phenomena 1179 00:43:18,589 --> 00:43:16,740 um you know those are both routes that 1180 00:43:20,930 --> 00:43:18,599 you can take that will shed a little bit 1181 00:43:22,670 --> 00:43:20,940 of light on this but I was I mean we 1182 00:43:25,309 --> 00:43:22,680 were not the only ones to do it there 1183 00:43:27,290 --> 00:43:25,319 was also a group in Sussex that managed 1184 00:43:29,510 --> 00:43:27,300 to have very very similar results to 1185 00:43:32,930 --> 00:43:29,520 their work and they're also been dotted 1186 00:43:35,329 --> 00:43:32,940 stories as well of lots of people who 1187 00:43:37,790 --> 00:43:35,339 have gone you know to to meditate or 1188 00:43:40,970 --> 00:43:37,800 concentrate or ask for a certain shape 1189 00:43:43,190 --> 00:43:40,980 to be made and lo and behold it it will 1190 00:43:46,430 --> 00:43:43,200 it hit this happen not every time 1191 00:43:49,309 --> 00:43:46,440 obviously but you know me many many 1192 00:43:53,329 --> 00:43:49,319 times enough for it to be I think 1193 00:43:55,609 --> 00:43:53,339 significant and and again worthy of 1194 00:43:57,710 --> 00:43:55,619 um you know taking a deeper look at 1195 00:44:00,609 --> 00:43:57,720 what's going on 1196 00:44:03,050 --> 00:44:00,619 and do you mind just sharing Karen those 1197 00:44:05,030 --> 00:44:03,060 hitchhiker-esque experiences what sort 1198 00:44:06,710 --> 00:44:05,040 of phenomenon has followed you back so 1199 00:44:08,510 --> 00:44:06,720 well yeah so I'll describe one that 1200 00:44:10,430 --> 00:44:08,520 happened to me so during that period of 1201 00:44:12,829 --> 00:44:10,440 time when we were doing the the really 1202 00:44:16,730 --> 00:44:12,839 intensive work 1203 00:44:18,589 --> 00:44:16,740 um in 1993. I was at home it was in in 1204 00:44:20,930 --> 00:44:18,599 the summer months I think it must have 1205 00:44:23,390 --> 00:44:20,940 been late June something like that I was 1206 00:44:25,970 --> 00:44:23,400 in my kitchen at home 1207 00:44:28,010 --> 00:44:25,980 um me and my husband had got a um friend 1208 00:44:29,089 --> 00:44:28,020 staying with us he was in the bath in 1209 00:44:30,950 --> 00:44:29,099 the bathroom which was on the ground 1210 00:44:31,670 --> 00:44:30,960 floor next door to where I was in the 1211 00:44:33,470 --> 00:44:31,680 kitchen 1212 00:44:34,550 --> 00:44:33,480 and I was just doing the washing up you 1213 00:44:36,650 --> 00:44:34,560 know as you do 1214 00:44:39,349 --> 00:44:36,660 and all of a sudden I started to hear 1215 00:44:41,270 --> 00:44:39,359 this sound and I didn't at first I 1216 00:44:43,550 --> 00:44:41,280 thought it was a distant Car Alarm it 1217 00:44:46,390 --> 00:44:43,560 was like a kind of electronic 1218 00:44:50,809 --> 00:44:46,400 kind of trilling kind of 1219 00:44:52,130 --> 00:44:50,819 multi-toned kind of thing and and as I I 1220 00:44:54,890 --> 00:44:52,140 just kind of you know it was there in 1221 00:44:56,329 --> 00:44:54,900 the background and and this 1222 00:44:57,890 --> 00:44:56,339 um noise started to get louder and 1223 00:45:00,230 --> 00:44:57,900 louder and louder 1224 00:45:03,530 --> 00:45:00,240 I thought oh hell what's that you know 1225 00:45:05,030 --> 00:45:03,540 and so I thought I would walk out the 1226 00:45:05,990 --> 00:45:05,040 back door and see if I could see 1227 00:45:06,710 --> 00:45:06,000 anything 1228 00:45:08,750 --> 00:45:06,720 um 1229 00:45:10,849 --> 00:45:08,760 anyway when I walked through the back 1230 00:45:12,530 --> 00:45:10,859 door what I suddenly realized was that 1231 00:45:14,750 --> 00:45:12,540 the sound wasn't coming from outside but 1232 00:45:16,849 --> 00:45:14,760 actually it was in the house 1233 00:45:19,190 --> 00:45:16,859 so I walked back into the house and I 1234 00:45:21,890 --> 00:45:19,200 shout to my friend can you hear that 1235 00:45:23,569 --> 00:45:21,900 noise and he shouted back yeah I can 1236 00:45:25,609 --> 00:45:23,579 what what is it you know and I say I 1237 00:45:27,410 --> 00:45:25,619 don't know what it is and all the time 1238 00:45:30,170 --> 00:45:27,420 the sound is getting louder and louder 1239 00:45:32,270 --> 00:45:30,180 and I was it would it just a point where 1240 00:45:33,829 --> 00:45:32,280 actually I was just starting to feel a 1241 00:45:36,589 --> 00:45:33,839 little bit frightened 1242 00:45:38,809 --> 00:45:36,599 and then the noise just stopped just 1243 00:45:40,670 --> 00:45:38,819 like that just stopped and it was you 1244 00:45:43,370 --> 00:45:40,680 know the the silence was deafening if 1245 00:45:44,510 --> 00:45:43,380 you like you know afterwards but to me 1246 00:45:47,150 --> 00:45:44,520 hey 1247 00:45:49,130 --> 00:45:47,160 it was something that was connected with 1248 00:45:50,630 --> 00:45:49,140 with what we were doing and and actually 1249 00:45:53,150 --> 00:45:50,640 hearing 1250 00:45:55,490 --> 00:45:53,160 um this kind of electronic sound in crop 1251 00:45:57,349 --> 00:45:55,500 circles is is not something that's 1252 00:45:59,390 --> 00:45:57,359 unheard of it has actually been reported 1253 00:46:02,390 --> 00:45:59,400 but to have it in my home 1254 00:46:04,550 --> 00:46:02,400 was to me it was kind of part and parcel 1255 00:46:05,930 --> 00:46:04,560 of what was going on to me it was kind 1256 00:46:07,430 --> 00:46:05,940 of a form of 1257 00:46:09,410 --> 00:46:07,440 Direct 1258 00:46:11,390 --> 00:46:09,420 contact if you like if you want to use 1259 00:46:13,490 -->

similar types of experiences 1266 00:46:25,309 --> 00:46:23,640 where you've had that high strangeness 1267 00:46:26,870 --> 00:46:25,319 you said you have that feeling when 1268 00:46:29,030 --> 00:46:26,880 you've gone into a crop circle I imagine 1269 00:46:31,069 --> 00:46:29,040 and I'm sure I've seen this in various 1270 00:46:33,710 --> 00:46:31,079 documentaries as an energy associated 1271 00:46:34,910 --> 00:46:33,720 with them you just get that feeling in a 1272 00:46:37,069 --> 00:46:34,920 place where something has happened 1273 00:46:39,050 --> 00:46:37,079 there's a connection to something that 1274 00:46:40,130 --> 00:46:39,060 any any of that that's followed you hold 1275 00:46:42,170 --> 00:46:40,140 me yourself 1276 00:46:44,750 --> 00:46:42,180 yeah I mean 1277 00:46:47,150 --> 00:46:44,760 um same stuff really and you hear a lot 1278 00:46:49,130 --> 00:46:47,160 of this anecdotally synchronicities wild 1279 00:46:51,589 --> 00:46:49,140 synchronicities you just think what are 1280 00:46:53,270 --> 00:46:51,599 the chances of that happening that you 1281 00:46:55,130 --> 00:46:53,280 know various events when you look back 1282 00:46:57,950 --> 00:46:55,140 at what you you know brought certain 1283 00:46:59,510 --> 00:46:57,960 events about you just you just stagger 1284 00:47:01,609 --> 00:46:59,520 at some of those and there's so many 1285 00:47:03,470 --> 00:47:01,619 stories from people who've been around 1286 00:47:05,690 --> 00:47:03,480 the crop circles they've got these sorts 1287 00:47:07,970 --> 00:47:05,700 of stories to tell 1288 00:47:10,609 --> 00:47:07,980 um and yeah like Karen said you know 1289 00:47:12,170 --> 00:47:10,619 seeing orbs of light you know early on 1290 00:47:13,670 --> 00:47:12,180 in when I first started to interact with 1291 00:47:15,650 --> 00:47:13,680 the cop Circle was my son and I and 1292 00:47:17,450 --> 00:47:15,660 another friend we've just been to the 1293 00:47:20,870 --> 00:47:17,460 crop circles we were camping over in 1294 00:47:23,329 --> 00:47:20,880 Shepton a rainbow festival and we went 1295 00:47:25,790 --> 00:47:23,339 back to their them in the evening just 1296 00:47:27,950 --> 00:47:25,800 before it got dark actually my son and I 1297 00:47:30,050 --> 00:47:27,960 saw this we just we just had this 1298 00:47:32,150 --> 00:47:30,060 instinct to look up into the sky and 1299 00:47:34,190 --> 00:47:32,160 there was this kind of craft and it 1300 00:47:36,230 --> 00:47:34,200 seemed to shoot out this orange light in 1301 00:47:38,270 --> 00:47:36,240 front of it and then ride this light off 1302 00:47:40,309 --> 00:47:38,280 into wherever it went 1303 00:47:41,690 --> 00:47:40,319 and then it got dark and we were we were 1304 00:47:44,030 --> 00:47:41,700 standing outside our tent this is 1305 00:47:46,010 --> 00:47:44,040 probably the most powerful sort of 1306 00:47:48,230 --> 00:47:46,020 experience you know around that kind of 1307 00:47:50,270 --> 00:47:48,240 UFO sort of thing I've ever had really 1308 00:47:51,829 --> 00:47:50,280 was all three of us just sort of looked 1309 00:47:54,230 --> 00:47:51,839 up in the sky I'm very low in the sky 1310 00:47:56,930 --> 00:47:54,240 just above the trees a bit of a very 1311 00:47:59,690 --> 00:47:56,940 bright light pulsating that was moving 1312 00:48:01,250 --> 00:47:59,700 quite slowly across in front of us and 1313 00:48:03,349 --> 00:48:01,260 we all just standing there with our Jaws 1314 00:48:05,030 --> 00:48:03,359 dropping as we were realizing well what 1315 00:48:07,130 --> 00:48:05,040 is this this is not normal 1316 00:48:09,290 --> 00:48:07,140 but then what got even more weird was 1317 00:48:11,569 --> 00:48:09,300 that all three of us had this instinct 1318 00:48:14,990 --> 00:48:11,579 to look over our shoulders and as we did 1319 00:48:17,329 --> 00:48:15,000 we saw this light in the distance race 1320 00:48:18,650 --> 00:48:17,339 forward an enormous rates obviously as 1321 00:48:21,290 --> 00:48:18,660 it was coming off over our left 1322 00:48:23,270 --> 00:48:21,300 shoulders and as our as our view sort of 1323 00:48:24,770 --> 00:48:23,280 got here and periphery we could start to 1324 00:48:28,010 --> 00:48:24,780 see this big one that was above the 1325 00:48:30,470 --> 00:48:28,020 trees it took off and they crossed in 1326 00:48:31,910 --> 00:48:30,480 the sky away in the distance and I'll 1327 00:48:34,370 --> 00:48:31,920 never forget my friend Mark who was down 1328 00:48:36,530 --> 00:48:34,380 there just went I believe now you know 1329 00:48:39,950 --> 00:48:36,540 that's the thing that sticks with my 1330 00:48:42,950 --> 00:48:39,960 memory when when when we saw this and 1331 00:48:44,210 --> 00:48:42,960 and so yeah I I mean I don't know I 1332 00:48:46,130 --> 00:48:44,220 don't know if you get you get involved 1333 00:48:49,430 --> 00:48:46,140 in this thing but you like what I can 1334 00:48:52,849 --> 00:48:51,050 Michael and I I work with Michael 1335 00:48:56,329 --> 00:48:52,859 Littman Karen knows very well we always 1336 00:48:58,910 --> 00:48:56,339 we always sort of had this feeling 1337 00:49:00,950 --> 00:48:58,920 that that you were kind of being guided 1338 00:49:03,290 --> 00:49:00,960 in certain ways the more you the more 1339 00:49:05,089 --> 00:49:03,300 you dig deeper into the phenomenon of 1340 00:49:06,589 --> 00:49:05,099 the crop circles and try to discover the 1341 00:49:08,690 --> 00:49:06,599 mysteries of that 1342 00:49:10,670 --> 00:49:08,700 as Andy Thomas another researcher put it 1343 00:49:13,309 --> 00:49:10,680 you you find that you're digging deeper 1344 00:49:15,530 --> 00:49:13,319 into your own soul and their own Mystery 1345 00:49:17,809 --> 00:49:15,540 of your own Consciousness because you're 1346 00:49:19,849 --> 00:49:17,819 constantly questioning yourself 1347 00:49:21,230 --> 00:49:19,859 about some of the things that go on 1348 00:49:23,390 --> 00:49:21,240 around you when you when you interact 1349 00:49:24,890 --> 00:49:23,400 with these things and other people too 1350 00:49:26,750 --> 00:49:24,900 and so 1351 00:49:29,210 --> 00:49:26,760 we used to say that we felt like we were 1352 00:49:30,829 --> 00:49:29,220 being kind of you know nudged left and 1353 00:49:32,569 --> 00:49:30,839 right as we went along our journey by 1354 00:49:34,849 --> 00:49:32,579 this kind of wise teacher a bit like 1355 00:49:36,230 --> 00:49:34,859 people Jung described Yi Ching that 1356 00:49:37,490 --> 00:49:36,240 after a while you interact with itching 1357 00:49:40,609 --> 00:49:37,500 and then suddenly you feel like you're 1358 00:49:43,970 --> 00:49:40,619 being kind of nudged Along by this very 1359 00:49:45,890 --> 00:49:43,980 wise person you know and I can say to 1360 00:49:47,510 --> 00:49:45,900 you you know the things that the areas 1361 00:49:50,690 --> 00:49:47,520 that has caused me to research about 1362 00:49:52,490 --> 00:49:50,700 life and the cosmos and synchronicity 1363 00:49:54,710 --> 00:49:52,500 and all the various topics even the 1364 00:49:56,150 --> 00:49:54,720 Wilshire landscape itself and ancient 1365 00:49:58,849 --> 00:49:56,160 monuments because they've been all 1366 00:50:01,309 --> 00:49:58,859 that's around there has enriched my life 1367 00:50:03,290 --> 00:50:01,319 over the last 25 years that really the 1368 00:50:06,230 --> 00:50:03,300 kind of the argument about you know who 1369 00:50:08,030 --> 00:50:06,240 makes the crop circles to me is sort of 1370 00:50:09,470 --> 00:50:08,040 insignificant because I don't think I 1371 00:50:11,569 --> 00:50:09,480 could have ever signed up to any 1372 00:50:13,430 --> 00:50:11,579 University degree that would have given 1373 00:50:15,410 --> 00:50:13,440 me the experiences 1374 00:50:17,030 --> 00:50:15,420 which I've you know I've passed with my 1375 00:50:18,410 --> 00:50:17,040 children you know as well as we've gone 1376 00:50:20,270 --> 00:50:18,420 along I was teaching them to square the 1377 00:50:21,770 --> 00:50:20,280 circle When Alan Brown discovered some 1378 00:50:23,870 --> 00:50:21,780 of the Mysteries we found in square in 1379 00:50:25,550 --> 00:50:23,880 the circle and some of these big 1380 00:50:27,410 --> 00:50:25,560 solutions to geometric puzzles it's 1381 00:50:29,270 --> 00:50:27,420 another subject but we've they've been 1382 00:50:31,130 --> 00:50:29,280 discovered hidden within crop circles 1383 00:50:32,450 --> 00:50:31,140 and I was able to teach my kids this 1384 00:50:34,910 --> 00:50:32,460 stuff when they were eight you know 1385 00:50:37,010 --> 00:50:34,920 Simple Solutions to geometric puzzles 1386 00:50:38,450 --> 00:50:37,020 that had Pythagoras and Plato and all 1387 00:50:40,309 --> 00:50:38,460 these people 1388 00:50:42,530 --> 00:50:40,319 scratching their heads to try and find 1389 00:50:44,390 --> 00:50:42,540 solutions to we've discovered really 1390 00:50:46,970 --> 00:50:44,400 really accurate Solutions inside crop 1391 00:50:48,890 --> 00:50:46,980 circles I say we I'm using the world we 1392 00:50:51,230 --> 00:50:48,900 as researchers but it was very brilliant 1393 00:50:52,609 --> 00:50:51,240 people like Alan Brown and John Martino 1394 00:50:54,109 --> 00:50:52,619 and other people and Michael Glickman 1395 00:50:55,910 --> 00:50:54,119 discovered them and I just wrote on the 1396 00:50:58,309 --> 00:50:55,920 back of that in some ways but 1397 00:51:00,589 --> 00:50:58,319 yeah it's just I could go on but you 1398 00:51:02,030 --> 00:51:00,599 know it's it's a big subject and when 1399 00:51:04,309 --> 00:51:02,040 you interact with it that you realize 1400 00:51:06,410 --> 00:51:04,319 after a while there's more to it 1401 00:51:08,809 --> 00:51:06,420 let me ask and this goes to both of you 1402 00:51:11,390 --> 00:51:08,819 that the crop circle phenomenon 1403 00:51:12,589 --> 00:51:11,400 seems to be inextricably attached again 1404 00:51:14,990 --> 00:51:12,599 I've used the word an extra company 1405 00:51:17,990 --> 00:51:15,000 twice now I hate that so too many 1406 00:51:20,089 --> 00:51:18,000 um it's almost like a 1990s phenomenon 1407 00:51:22,309 --> 00:51:20,099 and when I put out listener questions a 1408 00:51:24,170 --> 00:51:22,319 few people very respectfully said our 1409 00:51:25,670 --> 00:51:24,180 crop circle is still a thing to which 1410 00:51:27,470 --> 00:51:25,680 they are if you do any Googling or 1411 00:51:29,930 --> 00:51:27,480 online and searching they do happen we 1412 00:51:31,549 --> 00:51:29,940 know yours Gary was 2007 but they do 1413 00:51:33,410 --> 00:51:31,559 come up quite regular and if you've got 1414 00:51:34,970 --> 00:51:33,420 an eye on the subject you tend to see 1415 00:51:37,190 --> 00:51:34,980 various different news sites still 1416 00:51:38,870 --> 00:51:37,200 report on them and you're both nodding 1417 00:51:41,569 --> 00:51:38,880 so I assume that's something you both 1418 00:51:43,549 --> 00:51:41,579 are aware of and why do you think that 1419 00:51:46,670 --> 00:51:43,559 is why does it seem that crop circles 1420 00:51:50,089 --> 00:51:46,680 were a 1990s phenomenon 1421 00:51:52,309 --> 00:51:50,099 media I'd agree with that totally yeah 1422 00:51:54,530 --> 00:51:52,319 because essentially I think once the 1423 00:51:57,410 --> 00:51:54,540 media had made made its mind up that 1424 00:51:58,670 --> 00:51:57,420 that you know that this wasn't a thing 1425 00:52:00,170 --> 00:51:58,680 anymore 1426 00:52:02,450 --> 00:52:00,180 um that they they essentially really 1427 00:52:04,130 --> 00:52:02,460 stopped reporting on it 1428 00:52:05,990 --> 00:52:04,140 um you know and I 1429 00:52:08,089 --> 00:52:06,000 and again you know it's 1430 00:52:09,290 --> 00:52:08,099 as you say you know you you've only got 1431 00:52:11,630 --> 00:52:09,300 to sort of 1432 00:52:13,549 --> 00:52:11,640 um look at Gary's YouTube 1433 00:52:15,829 --> 00:52:13,559 um page or 1434 00:52:18,290 --> 00:52:15,839 um my website you know to to see that 1435 00:52:21,230 --> 00:52:18,300 crop circles still happen every year and 1436 00:52:22,370 --> 00:52:21,240 they have continued to happen every year 1437 00:52:24,890 --> 00:52:22,380 um you know 1438 00:52:27,230 --> 00:52:24,900 um since the early 90s and in fact you 1439 00:52:30,530 --> 00:52:27,240 know there are historical cases that 1440 00:52:32,089 --> 00:52:30,540 that go you know way back so you know 1441 00:52:34,430 --> 00:52:32,099 this has been with us a long time and 1442 00:52:37,790 --> 00:52:34,440 it's still with us there have been a few 1443 00:52:40,069 --> 00:52:37,800 Less in recent years it has to be said 1444 00:52:41,690 --> 00:52:40,079 um but you know I think probably the 1445 00:52:43,730 --> 00:52:41,700 height of 1446 00:52:47,210 --> 00:52:43,740 um crop circles appearing in the UK in 1447 00:52:50,270 --> 00:52:47,220 particular would be be around 2009 2010 1448 00:52:51,829 --> 00:52:50,280 something like that maybe 2012 after 1449 00:52:54,650 --> 00:52:51,839 which then 1450 00:52:56,329 --> 00:52:54,660 um we've seen a decline in numbers but 1451 00:52:58,609 --> 00:52:56,339 they're no less the ones that do appear 1452 00:53:00,770 --> 00:52:58,619 in no less interesting 1453 00:53:02,210 --> 00:53:00,780 um and no less amazing really than than 1454 00:53:05,150 --> 00:53:02,220 some of the ones that were appearing 1455 00:53:06,829 --> 00:53:05,160 then so yep I just I just think it's 1456 00:53:08,930 --> 00:53:06,839 because people don't see them in the 1457 00:53:10,790 --> 00:53:08,940 mainstream media I I think that's it's 1458 00:53:12,530 --> 00:53:10,800 as simple as that really 1459 00:53:13,970 --> 00:53:12,540 um you know and that's sad and it means 1460 00:53:16,250 --> 00:53:13,980 you have to work a little bit harder to 1461 00:53:19,069 --> 00:53:16,260 kind of find out what's going on but you 1462 00:53:20,510 --> 00:53:19,079 know if if you're on social media or you 1463 00:53:22,970 --> 00:53:20,520 know any of that good stuff it's it's 1464 00:53:25,190 --> 00:53:22,980 pretty easy to find 1465 00:53:27,190 --> 00:53:25,200 well you mentioned the mainstream media 1466 00:53:29,210 --> 00:53:27,200 I think maybe one of the last big 1467 00:53:31,309 --> 00:53:29,220 juggernauts to pick up on the crop 1468 00:53:34,430 --> 00:53:31,319 circle phenomenon was the movie Signs 1469 00:53:36,049 --> 00:53:34,440 which is now you know aging as the years 1470 00:53:38,210 --> 00:53:36,059 go by but it's a favorite of mine and 1471 00:53:40,250 --> 00:53:38,220 I've said many times at a slight aside 1472 00:53:43,069 --> 00:53:40,260 one of my most favorite pieces of 1473 00:53:44,870 --> 00:53:43,079 footage of what real might look like is 1474 00:53:47,270 --> 00:53:44,880 in the movie Signs when they're they're 1475 00:53:49,790 --> 00:53:47,280 filming a birthday party in Brazil the 1476 00:53:51,530 --> 00:53:49,800 invasion's happening and the the being 1477 00:53:53,569 --> 00:53:51,540 just moves across the camera at the end 1478 00:53:56,270 --> 00:53:53,579 of the alley and that always struck me 1479 00:53:57,829 --> 00:53:56,280 as a oh wow because it looks so raw and 1480 00:54:00,349 --> 00:53:57,839 gritty and that that's always been with 1481 00:54:01,790 --> 00:54:00,359 me but crop circles played a big part in 1482 00:54:04,809 --> 00:54:01,800 the movie Signs it's on the front cover 1483 00:54:08,450 --> 00:54:04,819 it's all about signs and in the movie 1484 00:54:10,849 --> 00:54:08,460 The beings attacking Earth are using 1485 00:54:13,790 --> 00:54:10,859 them as a way to mobilize and basically 1486 00:54:15,290 --> 00:54:13,800 navigate the planet so let me get on to 1487 00:54:17,329 --> 00:54:15,300 the conversation with both of you again 1488 00:54:20,210 --> 00:54:17,339 we'll come to you first what do you 1489 00:54:22,730 --> 00:54:20,220 think personally crop circles are for do 1490 00:54:29,030 --> 00:54:22,740 you even have a hypothesis or is there a 1491 00:54:33,410 --> 00:54:31,309 um Gary and I's mutual friend Michael 1492 00:54:35,990 --> 00:54:33,420 Glickman he always used to say that crop 1493 00:54:37,790 --> 00:54:36,000 circles were like toys on the nursery 1494 00:54:40,250 --> 00:54:37,800 floor and they were put there just to 1495 00:54:42,230 --> 00:54:40,260 see what we would make of them and and I 1496 00:54:44,809 --> 00:54:42,240 kind of like that idea I also like the 1497 00:54:46,549 --> 00:54:44,819 way that Gary Nolan once said that that 1498 00:54:49,609 --> 00:54:46,559 the UAP stuff was a bit of an 1499 00:54:51,109 --> 00:54:49,619 intelligence test and you know if if you 1500 00:54:52,849 --> 00:54:51,119 didn't pay attention then you'd failed 1501 00:54:55,309 --> 00:54:52,859 the test and I think there's a kind of a 1502 00:54:57,049 --> 00:54:55,319 little bit of that in this too 1503 00:54:59,809 --> 00:54:57,059 um I think 1504 00:55:01,190 --> 00:54:59,819 I think if I think anything about this I 1505 00:55:05,270 --> 00:55:01,200 think it's that 1506 00:55:07,190 --> 00:55:05,280 whatever is going on it takes people on 1507 00:55:09,829 --> 00:55:07,200 this journey of Discovery I think just 1508 00:55:12,349 --> 00:55:09,839 like the UFO phenomenon does you know 1509 00:55:14,630 --> 00:55:12,359 that it that it opens you up to all 1510 00:55:16,490 --> 00:55:14,640 kinds of new ideas and you are forever 1511 00:55:18,230 --> 00:55:16,500 changed by it 1512 00:55:20,089 --> 00:55:18,240 um and I you know so I think that's 1513 00:55:21,890 --> 00:55:20,099 that's kind of what happens with with 1514 00:55:25,670 --> 00:55:21,900 the crop circles you kind of go through 1515 00:55:27,589 --> 00:55:25,680 this kind of process over your 1516 00:55:29,690 --> 00:55:27,599 involvement with it and at every Point 1517 00:55:31,970 --> 00:55:29,700 there's a get out you know I mean that's 1518 00:55:34,130 --> 00:55:31,980 to me that's kind of how I think about 1519 00:55:36,170 --> 00:55:34,140 the whole hoaxing thing I think it's a 1520 00:55:38,990 --> 00:55:36,180 great get out if if things are getting 1521 00:55:42,109 --> 00:55:39,000 too much tuned you need to get out well 1522 00:55:43,790 --> 00:55:42,119 you know off you go you know um but I 1523 00:55:45,650 --> 00:55:43,800 think that 1524 00:55:47,569 --> 00:55:45,660 um you know staying with it you you 1525 00:55:49,490 --> 00:55:47,579 learn so many things like you know I I 1526 00:55:51,589 --> 00:55:49,500 always say that crop circles where their 1527 00:55:53,329 --> 00:55:51,599 spirituality on their sleep because I I 1528 00:55:54,890 --> 00:55:53,339 think that 1529 00:55:57,349 --> 00:55:54,900 um you know which makes me interested in 1530 00:56:00,829 --> 00:55:57,359 the work of people like Jeffrey 1531 00:56:02,990 --> 00:56:00,839 and Diana pasulka you know so 1532 00:56:04,549 --> 00:56:03,000 um I I think there is almost a spiritual 1533 00:56:06,530 --> 00:56:04,559 side to this 1534 00:56:09,049 --> 00:56:06,540 um you know and again I think that's in 1535 00:56:12,049 --> 00:56:09,059 you know involved in getting people 1536 00:56:14,990 --> 00:56:12,059 human beings to realize that you know we 1537 00:56:17,569 --> 00:56:15,000 live in a bigger wider reality than we 1538 00:56:20,809 --> 00:56:17,579 currently will admit and that that 1539 00:56:22,609 --> 00:56:20,819 reality is probably popular populated by 1540 00:56:24,950 --> 00:56:22,619 many many different types of 1541 00:56:27,410 --> 00:56:24,960 intelligences 1542 00:56:29,270 --> 00:56:27,420 um and you know maybe you know what what 1543 00:56:31,790 --> 00:56:29,280 is going on with the crop circles is not 1544 00:56:34,130 --> 00:56:31,800 related to some some of the stuff going 1545 00:56:36,650 --> 00:56:34,140 on with UFOs maybe it is we just don't 1546 00:56:39,770 --> 00:56:36,660 know enough about it yet but I certainly 1547 00:56:41,450 --> 00:56:39,780 think that you know this is is kind of 1548 00:56:44,270 --> 00:56:41,460 part of that I mean you know very 1549 00:56:46,790 --> 00:56:44,280 quickly the thing that really makes me 1550 00:56:49,130 --> 00:56:46,800 fascinated about the geometry of them is 1551 00:56:52,069 --> 00:56:49,140 that geometry itself is a universal 1552 00:56:53,990 --> 00:56:52,079 language so you know a circle is a 1553 00:56:55,730 --> 00:56:54,000 circle is a circle wherever you are you 1554 00:56:57,650 --> 00:56:55,740 know whether it's being as Mars or Earth 1555 00:56:59,809 --> 00:56:57,660 you know so 1556 00:57:01,730 --> 00:56:59,819 um and and also one of the things that 1557 00:57:03,950 --> 00:57:01,740 you very very quickly learn 1558 00:57:06,170 --> 00:57:03,960 um with all of this is that 1559 00:57:09,710 --> 00:57:06,180 um these geometries and numbers in 1560 00:57:11,870 --> 00:57:09,720 particular in particular are not just 1561 00:57:15,589 --> 00:57:11,880 um quantities they also have qualities 1562 00:57:16,790 --> 00:57:15,599 and those qualities are not just 1563 00:57:18,230 --> 00:57:16,800 um from 1564 00:57:20,150 --> 00:57:18,240 um human tradition they're actually 1565 00:57:22,970 --> 00:57:20,160 borne out by the way that numbers 1566 00:57:24,710 --> 00:57:22,980 interact together geometrically 1567 00:57:26,990 --> 00:57:24,720 so 1568 00:57:29,329 --> 00:57:27,000 um foreign for instance if you look at 1569 00:57:31,309 --> 00:57:29,339 the Circle it's it's about the number 1570 00:57:34,130 --> 00:57:31,319 one because it's there it is it's one 1571 00:57:35,270 --> 00:57:34,140 thing it's also about Unity 1572 00:57:37,490 --> 00:57:35,280 um it's about 1573 00:57:39,589 --> 00:57:37,500 all that is it's one of the reasons why 1574 00:57:42,589 --> 00:57:39,599 the circle has been used as a symbol for 1575 00:57:44,809 --> 00:57:42,599 God for many years for instance you know 1576 00:57:47,210 --> 00:57:44,819 the the Ancients would use the circle as 1577 00:57:51,349 --> 00:57:47,220 a sign for God or the song or whatever 1578 00:57:53,890 --> 00:57:51,359 but but equally when you you know you 1579 00:57:56,690 --> 00:57:53,900 look at say the square which is fourfold 1580 00:57:59,150 --> 00:57:56,700 that's to do with Mata and the way that 1581 00:58:01,190 --> 00:57:59,160 matter is put together so when you have 1582 00:58:04,309 --> 00:58:01,200 a coming together of the circle and 1583 00:58:06,410 --> 00:58:04,319 square like um Gary was talking about 1584 00:58:08,150 --> 00:58:06,420 it's an ancient conundrum this idea of 1585 00:58:10,849 --> 00:58:08,160 how do you square a circle 1586 00:58:13,390 --> 00:58:10,859 because when you draw a circle there's 1587 00:58:16,010 --> 00:58:13,400 no way to accurately 1588 00:58:18,349 --> 00:58:16,020 calculate the perimeter or circumference 1589 00:58:20,510 --> 00:58:18,359 of a circle it's why we taught Pi at 1590 00:58:23,270 --> 00:58:20,520 school we have to 1591 00:58:25,549 --> 00:58:23,280 um we have to approximate the the 1592 00:58:27,230 --> 00:58:25,559 perimeter of a circle 1593 00:58:29,690 --> 00:58:27,240 but with a square it's not we can 1594 00:58:31,490 --> 00:58:29,700 measure it it's it's a knowable thing so 1595 00:58:33,829 --> 00:58:31,500 when you bring the circle and the square 1596 00:58:35,750 --> 00:58:33,839 together you're bringing together the 1597 00:58:38,390 --> 00:58:35,760 known and the unknown or you're bringing 1598 00:58:41,390 --> 00:58:38,400 together the Heavenly and the Earthly 1599 00:58:43,549 --> 00:58:41,400 it's why many temples Inc you know and 1600 00:58:46,010 --> 00:58:43,559 churches these days have domes sat on 1601 00:58:49,609 --> 00:58:46,020 top of squares it's that idea of 1602 00:58:52,130 --> 00:58:49,619 bringing Heaven to Earth or marrying the 1603 00:58:55,430 --> 00:58:52,140 spirit with matter and I think there 1604 00:58:57,170 --> 00:58:55,440 there is something implicitly implied by 1605 00:58:59,329 --> 00:58:57,180 that you know the fact that we've got 1606 00:59:00,829 --> 00:58:59,339 something going on in the fields here 1607 00:59:03,770 --> 00:59:00,839 which is 1608 00:59:06,710 --> 00:59:03,780 um a marriage of somehow a marriage 1609 00:59:10,430 --> 00:59:06,720 between spiritual consciousness and 1610 00:59:12,289 --> 00:59:10,440 matter itself so I think by these are 1611 00:59:13,849 --> 00:59:12,299 very very deep philosophical questions 1612 00:59:16,430 --> 00:59:13,859 you know that have kept crop circle 1613 00:59:18,650 --> 00:59:16,440 researchers up till the wee hours for 1614 00:59:21,049 --> 00:59:18,660 you know decades 1615 00:59:23,690 --> 00:59:21,059 um but you know by by looking at this 1616 00:59:26,390 --> 00:59:23,700 you know even by looking at the gestures 1617 00:59:27,890 --> 00:59:26,400 um again our friend Michael would point 1618 00:59:30,170 --> 00:59:27,900 out something when you looked at a 1619 00:59:31,430 --> 00:59:30,180 circle called a Hospitality portal well 1620 00:59:33,829 --> 00:59:31,440 what does that mean because it sounds 1621 00:59:35,569 --> 00:59:33,839 weird but but actually what it means is 1622 00:59:38,809 --> 00:59:35,579 that very often the geometry of the 1623 00:59:41,630 --> 00:59:38,819 circles is arranged on the ground so 1624 00:59:43,910 --> 00:59:41,640 that you can access every Point inside a 1625 00:59:46,670 --> 00:59:43,920 circle without having to flatten any 1626 00:59:48,589 --> 00:59:46,680 more crop and that makes it very very 1627 00:59:50,210 --> 00:59:48,599 difficult to draw sometimes because you 1628 00:59:52,490 --> 00:59:50,220 have to pull the geometry out because 1629 00:59:55,910 --> 00:59:52,500 the lines don't don't mean you pull them 1630 00:59:58,549 --> 00:59:55,920 out so that it allows access so you know 1631 01:00:02,270 --> 00:59:58,559 these are we're talking about whole 1632 01:00:04,490 --> 01:00:02,280 symbolic geometric gestural language 1633 01:00:06,230 --> 01:00:04,500 here going going on in the fields and 1634 01:00:08,569 --> 01:00:06,240 and again this is another real passion 1635 01:00:10,490 --> 01:00:08,579 of mine I think again there's something 1636 01:00:13,250 --> 01:00:10,500 going on here that if you pay attention 1637 01:00:15,710 --> 01:00:13,260 if you learn to be a noticer of things 1638 01:00:18,230 --> 01:00:15,720 which is what Michael would say that he 1639 01:00:20,569 --> 01:00:18,240 was and no noticer of things it's it's 1640 01:00:23,210 --> 01:00:20,579 like learning a new language it's like 1641 01:00:25,549 --> 01:00:23,220 learning this subtle language that you 1642 01:00:27,530 --> 01:00:25,559 know tells us about you know which is as 1643 01:00:30,049 --> 01:00:27,540 applicable here as it is in the wider 1644 01:00:32,210 --> 01:00:30,059 Cosmos so again you know Gary was 1645 01:00:34,789 --> 01:00:32,220 talking about a brilliant 1646 01:00:36,049 --> 01:00:34,799 um geometer called John Martino who 1647 01:00:38,510 --> 01:00:36,059 wrote this wonderful book called a 1648 01:00:40,089 --> 01:00:38,520 little book of coincidence and it's 1649 01:00:43,309 --> 01:00:40,099 about how 1650 01:00:45,950 --> 01:00:43,319 the the planets in the in the solar 1651 01:00:49,069 --> 01:00:45,960 system are arranged geometrically it's 1652 01:00:51,349 --> 01:00:49,079 not just a random thing at all 1653 01:00:53,390 --> 01:00:51,359 um and not only are they arranged so in 1654 01:00:54,650 --> 01:00:53,400 our solar system but it when you begin 1655 01:00:57,589 --> 01:00:54,660 to look 1656 01:01:00,589 --> 01:00:57,599 out you see that that the whole of the 1657 01:01:03,170 --> 01:01:00,599 cosmos is arranged according to the this 1658 01:01:05,510 --> 01:01:03,180 Canon of geometry and to see that then 1659 01:01:07,430 --> 01:01:05,520 repeated in the fields used in in the 1660 01:01:09,650 --> 01:01:07,440 fields here again it kind of gives you 1661 01:01:11,390 --> 01:01:09,660 this idea that there's something we're 1662 01:01:14,270 --> 01:01:11,400 being taught something really important 1663 01:01:16,670 --> 01:01:14,280 here about the way that the cosmos works 1664 01:01:18,530 --> 01:01:16,680 so you know again this is I mean it's 1665 01:01:19,910 --> 01:01:18,540 such a huge topic 1666 01:01:21,530 --> 01:01:19,920 um you know I'm going to be quiet now 1667 01:01:23,270 --> 01:01:21,540 because I've said quite enough and but 1668 01:01:26,710 --> 01:01:23,280 I'd be interested to hear what Gary 1669 01:01:31,069 --> 01:01:29,390 yeah please thanks Karen perfect to 1670 01:01:33,589 --> 01:01:31,079 follow Karen 1671 01:01:34,730 --> 01:01:33,599 um yeah this is it this is this is the 1672 01:01:35,450 --> 01:01:34,740 you know 1673 01:01:37,370 --> 01:01:35,460 um 1674 01:01:39,170 --> 01:01:37,380 because when you move away from the 1675 01:01:41,450 --> 01:01:39,180 who's doing it the whodunit of the whole 1676 01:01:43,069 --> 01:01:41,460 scenario you're then on to what you know 1677 01:01:45,049 --> 01:01:43,079 what do these symbols mean and I often 1678 01:01:47,390 --> 01:01:45,059 say it at presentations when I give them 1679 01:01:49,250 --> 01:01:47,400 you know imagine if you wake up in your 1680 01:01:51,289 --> 01:01:49,260 house one morning and you come down and 1681 01:01:53,630 --> 01:01:51,299 somebody's put this mysterious symbol on 1682 01:01:55,609 --> 01:01:53,640 a piece of paper or some strange 1683 01:01:58,370 --> 01:01:55,619 arrangement of geometry you know through 1684 01:02:00,410 --> 01:01:58,380 your door and you you step outside and 1685 01:02:01,789 --> 01:02:00,420 look up the street and you find all your 1686 01:02:04,190 --> 01:02:01,799 neighbors out in the street who've also 1687 01:02:05,569 --> 01:02:04,200 all had one and they're also we all look 1688 01:02:07,069 --> 01:02:05,579 at each other and scratching your heads 1689 01:02:08,990 --> 01:02:07,079 and saying we know what what's all this 1690 01:02:10,370 --> 01:02:09,000 about then but instead of saying that 1691 01:02:12,170 --> 01:02:10,380 you're saying well who put this through 1692 01:02:13,670 --> 01:02:12,180 our letterbox so you put up cameras and 1693 01:02:15,289 --> 01:02:13,680 you spend 40 years trying to catch the 1694 01:02:16,910 --> 01:02:15,299 postman but you never catch him really 1695 01:02:18,349 --> 01:02:16,920 you know people are saying that they are 1696 01:02:20,569 --> 01:02:18,359 the postman but they can't really 1697 01:02:22,069 --> 01:02:20,579 convince you enough of that So 1698 01:02:23,809 --> 01:02:22,079 eventually you have to say what do these 1699 01:02:25,970 --> 01:02:23,819 things mean you know what's it what are 1700 01:02:28,549 --> 01:02:25,980 they what what is trying to be 1701 01:02:31,309 --> 01:02:28,559 communicated to us and as Karen said you 1702 01:02:33,250 --> 01:02:31,319 know this geometry is is is a universal 1703 01:02:35,450 --> 01:02:33,260 language because it's basically number 1704 01:02:37,549 --> 01:02:35,460 and it comes from this Canon of learn 1705 01:02:39,589 --> 01:02:37,559 that the Greeks called the 1706 01:02:40,670 --> 01:02:39,599 um Seven Liberal Arts the quadrivium and 1707 01:02:43,370 --> 01:02:40,680 the Trivium 1708 01:02:45,770 --> 01:02:43,380 so the four parts the quadrivium is 1709 01:02:48,730 --> 01:02:45,780 number which is when you think about it 1710 01:02:51,230 --> 01:02:48,740 a completely abstract sort of a priori 1711 01:02:53,089 --> 01:02:51,240 subject it was number was here before 1712 01:02:54,650 --> 01:02:53,099 you know we think we invented it but all 1713 01:02:56,390 --> 01:02:54,660 we invented were symbols to denote 1714 01:02:58,430 --> 01:02:56,400 numbers 1715 01:03:00,109 --> 01:02:58,440 um and so we think of them because we 1716 01:03:02,030 --> 01:03:00,119 learn in school you know if you go to 1717 01:03:03,410 --> 01:03:02,040 the the green Grocers and you buy some 1718 01:03:04,789 --> 01:03:03,420 oranges and you know how much change 1719 01:03:06,530 --> 01:03:04,799 will you come back with and we think of 1720 01:03:08,870 --> 01:03:06,540 it in terms of quantities but there's 1721 01:03:11,109 --> 01:03:08,880 this qualitative aspect to it 1722 01:03:13,970 --> 01:03:11,119 like Karen mentioned the Oneness of 1723 01:03:16,670 --> 01:03:13,980 absoluteness and unity and the threeness 1724 01:03:18,530 --> 01:03:16,680 of a triangle you know three is a 1725 01:03:20,990 --> 01:03:18,540 triangle in space and that's geometry 1726 01:03:22,849 --> 01:03:21,000 the next thing is geometry is number in 1727 01:03:24,650 --> 01:03:22,859 space 1728 01:03:27,230 --> 01:03:24,660 um and so three three and it says the 1729 01:03:29,569 --> 01:03:27,240 quality of a tripod you can you can get 1730 01:03:31,490 --> 01:03:29,579 stability to sit on us a milking stall 1731 01:03:33,950 --> 01:03:31,500 with three legs but you can't with two 1732 01:03:35,990 --> 01:03:33,960 legs so there's there's a mediator can 1733 01:03:38,569 --> 01:03:36,000 step in and break up two people who are 1734 01:03:40,789 --> 01:03:38,579 fighting because a quality of three will 1735 01:03:42,650 --> 01:03:40,799 intersect and so you start to learn oh 1736 01:03:44,809 --> 01:03:42,660 number's not just about counting and 1737 01:03:47,390 --> 01:03:44,819 stuff then you look at music and music 1738 01:03:49,069 --> 01:03:47,400 is numbering time 1739 01:03:50,270 --> 01:03:49,079 um and so and so as Karen was saying 1740 01:03:52,250 --> 01:03:50,280 okay the brilliant work of John 1741 01:03:54,349 --> 01:03:52,260 Martineau when he he figured out and he 1742 01:03:55,730 --> 01:03:54,359 and he was inspired by the crop circles 1743 01:03:58,670 --> 01:03:55,740 to do this 1744 01:04:00,349 --> 01:03:58,680 he he he worked out the the we were 1745 01:04:02,089 --> 01:04:00,359 dealing with whole number ratios and 1746 01:04:03,950 --> 01:04:02,099 proportions very simple whole number 1747 01:04:05,750 --> 01:04:03,960 ratios and proportions stuff that's not 1748 01:04:07,370 --> 01:04:05,760 complicated 1749 01:04:10,250 --> 01:04:07,380 um and so he created a computer program 1750 01:04:12,349 --> 01:04:10,260 and he fed in the relative sizes of the 1751 01:04:14,630 --> 01:04:12,359 orbits and size relative sizes of the 1752 01:04:16,490 --> 01:04:14,640 planets in our solar system and found 1753 01:04:18,289 --> 01:04:16,500 out that they're all organized in the 1754 01:04:20,809 --> 01:04:18,299 same way that you would organize tuning 1755 01:04:22,789 --> 01:04:20,819 a guitar a musical scale whole number 1756 01:04:25,190 --> 01:04:22,799 ratios two to one three to one two to 1757 01:04:29,089 --> 01:04:25,200 one's an octave and so on and so music 1758 01:04:31,190 --> 01:04:29,099 is numbering in in in time and then when 1759 01:04:34,010 --> 01:04:31,200 you look at astronomy the fourth of this 1760 01:04:35,870 --> 01:04:34,020 of the um quadrivium the fourth art of 1761 01:04:38,990 --> 01:04:35,880 the quadrivium it's it's astronomy which 1762 01:04:41,049 --> 01:04:39,000 is number in time and space and now 1763 01:04:43,250 --> 01:04:41,059 we're getting some sort of insights into 1764 01:04:45,049 --> 01:04:43,260 Stonehenge and Avery and these sort of 1765 01:04:46,970 --> 01:04:45,059 ancient monuments that make us scratch 1766 01:04:48,650 --> 01:04:46,980 our heads that they're calendars and 1767 01:04:52,190 --> 01:04:48,660 they observe the planets moving around 1768 01:04:54,349 --> 01:04:52,200 over time in space around us and that's 1769 01:04:56,870 --> 01:04:54,359 how we began as human beings to scratch 1770 01:04:59,150 --> 01:04:56,880 our heads and wonder what the hell all 1771 01:05:00,530 --> 01:04:59,160 this life stuff's about and where are we 1772 01:05:02,390 --> 01:05:00,540 you know and is there some sort of 1773 01:05:04,190 --> 01:05:02,400 meaning to this and 1774 01:05:05,930 --> 01:05:04,200 and then you know and as Karen said 1775 01:05:07,730 --> 01:05:05,940 really not to label the point but that's 1776 01:05:09,289 --> 01:05:07,740 that's had a lot of us up scratching our 1777 01:05:11,450 --> 01:05:09,299 heads and having some really interesting 1778 01:05:13,910 --> 01:05:11,460 conversations and speculations about all 1779 01:05:15,650 --> 01:05:13,920 sorts of things because of these topics 1780 01:05:17,809 --> 01:05:15,660 which you know really come up as a 1781 01:05:18,890 --> 01:05:17,819 result of studying these mysterious 1782 01:05:25,250 --> 01:05:18,900 circles 1783 01:05:27,170 --> 01:05:25,260 you know I worked in Mexico for a number 1784 01:05:28,490 --> 01:05:27,180 of years and they call them aggreglyphs 1785 01:05:30,049 --> 01:05:28,500 and I quite like you know that you're 1786 01:05:31,309 --> 01:05:30,059 calling them a glyph and that you know 1787 01:05:32,809 --> 01:05:31,319 there's there's something more powerful 1788 01:05:34,670 --> 01:05:32,819 to them rather than Circle because they 1789 01:05:36,650 --> 01:05:34,680 they were circles in the early days but 1790 01:05:38,329 --> 01:05:36,660 they've they've not been you know just 1791 01:05:40,250 --> 01:05:38,339 circles for a very long time really 1792 01:05:42,589 --> 01:05:40,260 although they still appear as circles 1793 01:05:45,710 --> 01:05:42,599 every day it just remind us of the power 1794 01:05:47,510 --> 01:05:45,720 of this simple Circle sure you've both 1795 01:05:49,130 --> 01:05:47,520 give two wonderful answers there as well 1796 01:05:51,470 --> 01:05:49,140 so thanks for that listen let's get to 1797 01:05:53,089 --> 01:05:51,480 some listener questions and um many of 1798 01:05:54,230 --> 01:05:53,099 us in our questions you've answered in 1799 01:05:55,910 --> 01:05:54,240 the body of what you've talked about 1800 01:05:57,950 --> 01:05:55,920 which is great so thank you if you sent 1801 01:06:00,049 --> 01:05:57,960 over a question you may have had the 1802 01:06:02,150 --> 01:06:00,059 answer already but uh some of the ones 1803 01:06:04,849 --> 01:06:02,160 I've been sent in so first off from Jim 1804 01:06:07,430 --> 01:06:04,859 Jim asks could you ask your guest Jim 1805 01:06:09,289 --> 01:06:07,440 sent this via email too so thank you Jim 1806 01:06:10,970 --> 01:06:09,299 um what is the single most compelling 1807 01:06:13,730 --> 01:06:10,980 piece of evidence that leads them to 1808 01:06:16,789 --> 01:06:13,740 believe this phenomena is not natural so 1809 01:06:19,910 --> 01:06:16,799 if you had to boil it down to one thing 1810 01:06:21,349 --> 01:06:19,920 I'll start with Karen one thing member 1811 01:06:23,270 --> 01:06:21,359 of the public comes up and says tell me 1812 01:06:25,490 --> 01:06:23,280 one thing you've got I don't know what a 1813 01:06:27,770 --> 01:06:25,500 couple of links to tell me why is this 1814 01:06:30,170 --> 01:06:27,780 not a natural phenomena 1815 01:06:32,809 --> 01:06:30,180 oh it's so hard to do this 1816 01:06:35,510 --> 01:06:32,819 um it's so hard to do it 1817 01:06:38,089 --> 01:06:35,520 um I think I think one of the the things 1818 01:06:40,130 --> 01:06:38,099 is it's longevity I suppose you know 1819 01:06:42,529 --> 01:06:40,140 that it's just been going on for so long 1820 01:06:44,750 --> 01:06:42,539 now and as I was saying earlier you know 1821 01:06:46,970 --> 01:06:44,760 reports of crop circles I mean they go 1822 01:06:49,370 --> 01:06:46,980 way way back I mean I've spoken to many 1823 01:06:52,849 --> 01:06:49,380 farmers who say they played in them as 1824 01:06:55,730 --> 01:06:52,859 kids you know or even parents of farmers 1825 01:06:57,589 --> 01:06:55,740 who said they played in them as kids so 1826 01:06:59,029 --> 01:06:57,599 um you know there's a lot of you know 1827 01:07:00,529 --> 01:06:59,039 historical 1828 01:07:02,569 --> 01:07:00,539 um work to show that this has been 1829 01:07:05,390 --> 01:07:02,579 actually going on for a long time I 1830 01:07:08,329 --> 01:07:05,400 think some of the earliest pictures 1831 01:07:11,029 --> 01:07:08,339 um I think maybe the the turn of the 1832 01:07:12,770 --> 01:07:11,039 century maybe you know so you know that 1833 01:07:15,289 --> 01:07:12,780 just when photography was beginning to 1834 01:07:17,150 --> 01:07:15,299 be to be used so 1835 01:07:20,569 --> 01:07:17,160 um so yeah it's longevity and I think 1836 01:07:22,609 --> 01:07:20,579 despite the fact that you know 1837 01:07:24,950 --> 01:07:22,619 people want to keep writing it off it 1838 01:07:26,690 --> 01:07:24,960 still keeps happening so you know I 1839 01:07:28,609 --> 01:07:26,700 think that would be the one thing would 1840 01:07:31,789 --> 01:07:28,619 would be just how long it's been been 1841 01:07:33,349 --> 01:07:31,799 going on and just and also not that just 1842 01:07:35,750 --> 01:07:33,359 going on in this country but going on 1843 01:07:37,849 --> 01:07:35,760 all over the world as well the crop 1844 01:07:40,309 --> 01:07:37,859 circles have been reported in I think 1845 01:07:42,829 --> 01:07:40,319 I think well over 60 different countries 1846 01:07:44,930 --> 01:07:42,839 now so you know it would be those two 1847 01:07:47,029 --> 01:07:44,940 things perhaps I think 1848 01:07:49,130 --> 01:07:47,039 before I asked Gary just on that 1849 01:07:50,990 --> 01:07:49,140 longevity would it be fair to say the 1850 01:07:53,569 --> 01:07:51,000 crop circle phenomena could have been 1851 01:07:55,609 --> 01:07:53,579 going on for centuries however before 1852 01:07:57,650 --> 01:07:55,619 the Advent of being able to get up in 1853 01:07:59,510 --> 01:07:57,660 the air to look down upon crops and take 1854 01:08:01,609 --> 01:07:59,520 a picture of it or even fly over it 1855 01:08:02,450 --> 01:08:01,619 people would have just presumed it would 1856 01:08:04,789 --> 01:08:02,460 have been 1857 01:08:06,950 --> 01:08:04,799 sabotaged or damaged crops because they 1858 01:08:09,470 --> 01:08:06,960 would have walked in at eye level and 1859 01:08:10,490 --> 01:08:09,480 seen crops bent over and that that would 1860 01:08:11,990 --> 01:08:10,500 have been it wouldn't they because 1861 01:08:14,029 --> 01:08:12,000 there's no there would have been no way 1862 01:08:17,329 --> 01:08:14,039 of knowing oh there's some incredible 1863 01:08:18,950 --> 01:08:17,339 geometric pattern woven into this huge 1864 01:08:22,010 --> 01:08:18,960 expanse of crops I have they would have 1865 01:08:23,150 --> 01:08:22,020 just seen the crops were bent over is 1866 01:08:25,189 --> 01:08:23,160 that is that fair yes I think that's 1867 01:08:27,769 --> 01:08:25,199 fair and I think that there's folklore 1868 01:08:30,289 --> 01:08:27,779 to suggest that that happened 1869 01:08:32,090 --> 01:08:30,299 um you know Fair fairy rings and you 1870 01:08:34,610 --> 01:08:32,100 know um encounters with things like 1871 01:08:36,229 --> 01:08:34,620 Willow the Wisp you know who a ball of 1872 01:08:38,450 --> 01:08:36,239 light that would lead people Australian 1873 01:08:40,430 --> 01:08:38,460 the countryside so yeah I think you know 1874 01:08:42,650 --> 01:08:40,440 once you begin to dig back into folklore 1875 01:08:44,390 --> 01:08:42,660 you you realize that there's every 1876 01:08:46,189 --> 01:08:44,400 possibility that it's been going on on 1877 01:08:48,769 --> 01:08:46,199 for a very very long time there's 1878 01:08:52,189 --> 01:08:48,779 actually an old wood cut that that dates 1879 01:08:53,090 --> 01:08:52,199 back to the 16th century 1600s I think 1880 01:08:55,669 --> 01:08:53,100 actually 1881 01:08:57,769 --> 01:08:55,679 um it's called the mowing devil and 1882 01:09:00,410 --> 01:08:57,779 there's a the woodcut of a devil kind of 1883 01:09:01,669 --> 01:09:00,420 mowing a circle into a crop field and 1884 01:09:03,470 --> 01:09:01,679 there's kind of like a little story 1885 01:09:05,030 --> 01:09:03,480 about it you know where the farmer was 1886 01:09:08,570 --> 01:09:05,040 looking for somebody to come and harvest 1887 01:09:10,849 --> 01:09:08,580 his field and the the various workmen 1888 01:09:13,189 --> 01:09:10,859 were giving him their price to come and 1889 01:09:15,229 --> 01:09:13,199 do it and he was saying no no no better 1890 01:09:17,990 --> 01:09:15,239 the devil come and do it then we pay you 1891 01:09:20,390 --> 01:09:18,000 that but but that that would cut does 1892 01:09:22,669 --> 01:09:20,400 exist and um some people have said 1893 01:09:24,769 --> 01:09:22,679 perhaps it's related to crop circles I 1894 01:09:27,229 --> 01:09:24,779 think it's possible but nobody knows for 1895 01:09:29,150 --> 01:09:27,239 sure but certainly they're they're there 1896 01:09:30,709 --> 01:09:29,160 is that kind of folklore element to it 1897 01:09:32,809 --> 01:09:30,719 sure 1898 01:09:34,430 --> 01:09:32,819 Gary will come to you as well your your 1899 01:09:36,470 --> 01:09:34,440 single most compelling piece of evidence 1900 01:09:39,410 --> 01:09:36,480 I just want to just want to on what 1901 01:09:41,570 --> 01:09:39,420 Karen was just saying there just say 1902 01:09:43,370 --> 01:09:41,580 um they're also there are elevated 1903 01:09:45,289 --> 01:09:43,380 positions in Wiltshire where you can 1904 01:09:46,789 --> 01:09:45,299 look down onto the fields like a Barbary 1905 01:09:49,249 --> 01:09:46,799 castle for example you know you don't 1906 01:09:50,990 --> 01:09:49,259 have to be flying completely to be able 1907 01:09:53,450 --> 01:09:51,000 to see crop circles you know there 1908 01:09:55,910 --> 01:09:53,460 because the land sort of undulates you 1909 01:09:57,650 --> 01:09:55,920 can be on one side of a valley and look 1910 01:10:00,110 --> 01:09:57,660 across to another and see a crop circle 1911 01:10:01,490 --> 01:10:00,120 and there are lots I I made some 1912 01:10:04,430 --> 01:10:01,500 documentaries when I was in Mexico for 1913 01:10:05,750 --> 01:10:04,440 Gaia TV and there there's a wonderful 1914 01:10:07,130 --> 01:10:05,760 book the history of crop service has 1915 01:10:09,770 --> 01:10:07,140 been written what's his name is it Terry 1916 01:10:11,870 --> 01:10:09,780 Terry Wilson Terry Wilson Terry Wilson 1917 01:10:13,370 --> 01:10:11,880 wonderful book on Amazon it said and he 1918 01:10:14,390 --> 01:10:13,380 reads a couple of pounds really worth 1919 01:10:16,010 --> 01:10:14,400 reading because there's some great 1920 01:10:18,229 --> 01:10:16,020 evidence and photographs in there of 1921 01:10:19,970 --> 01:10:18,239 simple circles many of them that have 1922 01:10:22,610 --> 01:10:19,980 appeared over the years 1923 01:10:25,130 --> 01:10:22,620 um and so there are lots of stories that 1924 01:10:26,149 --> 01:10:25,140 were published in newspapers where 1925 01:10:29,930 --> 01:10:26,159 um 1926 01:10:31,370 --> 01:10:29,940 in their sort of Elder years and saying 1927 01:10:33,050 --> 01:10:31,380 oh we used to play in those as children 1928 01:10:34,729 --> 01:10:33,060 when my grandfather had a farm and they 1929 01:10:36,470 --> 01:10:34,739 just told us they were fairy rings and 1930 01:10:39,410 --> 01:10:36,480 you know we rolled around in them and we 1931 01:10:42,169 --> 01:10:39,420 did all this so so there is a lot of you 1932 01:10:45,110 --> 01:10:42,179 know stories that go back about them 1933 01:10:47,510 --> 01:10:45,120 um and so yeah it it but once once Colin 1934 01:10:48,890 --> 01:10:47,520 Andrews and busty Taylor and Pat Delgado 1935 01:10:50,990 --> 01:10:48,900 started to pay more attention in the 1936 01:10:52,490 --> 01:10:51,000 late 70s and then wrote the book and 1937 01:10:54,410 --> 01:10:52,500 then people started to fly around and 1938 01:10:55,669 --> 01:10:54,420 then he seems like the phenomena 1939 01:10:58,550 --> 01:10:55,679 responded and 1940 01:10:59,990 --> 01:10:58,560 and and brought us more on the on the 1941 01:11:01,550 --> 01:11:00,000 one thing that's compelling I would say 1942 01:11:02,930 --> 01:11:01,560 it's difficult to say one thing it's 1943 01:11:04,729 --> 01:11:02,940 it's what I mentioned earlier really 1944 01:11:06,830 --> 01:11:04,739 it's time frame and working conditions 1945 01:11:08,510 --> 01:11:06,840 for me if you know on a feet on the 1946 01:11:11,149 --> 01:11:08,520 ground sort of level all the other stuff 1947 01:11:13,430 --> 01:11:11,159 that's a little bit less tangible this 1948 01:11:15,470 --> 01:11:13,440 is very tangible to me 1949 01:11:17,630 --> 01:11:15,480 um and so so if I you know as I said if 1950 01:11:19,610 --> 01:11:17,640 I see a crop circle that's that's that 1951 01:11:21,350 --> 01:11:19,620 we know has appeared under certain 1952 01:11:23,810 --> 01:11:21,360 conditions 1953 01:11:25,550 --> 01:11:23,820 um in in in a very short time frame then 1954 01:11:28,070 --> 01:11:25,560 to me that's the one compelling piece of 1955 01:11:29,930 --> 01:11:28,080 evidence that says I mean I often say 1956 01:11:32,149 --> 01:11:29,940 this Karen draws them 1957 01:11:33,590 --> 01:11:32,159 and I say to people okay if you want you 1958 01:11:35,270 --> 01:11:33,600 know it's not easy to go out into the 1959 01:11:36,590 --> 01:11:35,280 fields in the dark and try to see if you 1960 01:11:38,930 --> 01:11:36,600 can make one like Karen did with some 1961 01:11:41,330 --> 01:11:38,940 friends earlier but if you want an idea 1962 01:11:42,890 --> 01:11:41,340 then get a piece of paper A3 piece of 1963 01:11:44,870 --> 01:11:42,900 paper get you get your compasses and 1964 01:11:47,090 --> 01:11:44,880 your pencil and paper out all right and 1965 01:11:49,010 --> 01:11:47,100 and Draw Something Draw crop circle a 1966 01:11:51,590 --> 01:11:49,020 nice one and when you've done that 1967 01:11:53,149 --> 01:11:51,600 without making any mistakes because you 1968 01:11:54,709 --> 01:11:53,159 can't use a rubber you can't make crop 1969 01:11:56,270 --> 01:11:54,719 stand back up so you have to do it 1970 01:11:58,790 --> 01:11:56,280 perfect first time 1971 01:12:00,590 --> 01:11:58,800 when you've done that then I want you to 1972 01:12:02,090 --> 01:12:00,600 take your pay take another sheet of 1973 01:12:04,790 --> 01:12:02,100 paper and I'll put it on an uneven 1974 01:12:07,130 --> 01:12:04,800 surface and turn all the lights off and 1975 01:12:09,410 --> 01:12:07,140 do it again without making any mistakes 1976 01:12:10,729 --> 01:12:09,420 and that's on paper then if you want to 1977 01:12:12,890 --> 01:12:10,739 go into a field and show us how you do 1978 01:12:16,490 --> 01:12:12,900 that over a thousand feet I'd love to 1979 01:12:18,950 --> 01:12:16,500 see it so that's that's for me the most 1980 01:12:21,169 --> 01:12:18,960 compelling piece of 1981 01:12:23,330 --> 01:12:21,179 yeah no I feel I like that 1982 01:12:25,010 --> 01:12:23,340 um on a similar similar vein question 1983 01:12:26,510 --> 01:12:25,020 from Steve Webb 1984 01:12:28,610 --> 01:12:26,520 um Steve would like to know since there 1985 01:12:30,649 --> 01:12:28,620 are numerous circles in and around the 1986 01:12:32,750 --> 01:12:30,659 wheelchair for years are the police 1987 01:12:34,550 --> 01:12:32,760 actively investigating the criminal 1988 01:12:36,590 --> 01:12:34,560 damage aspect 1989 01:12:38,570 --> 01:12:36,600 um or if they've come to any conclusions 1990 01:12:40,790 --> 01:12:38,580 and therefore not attempting to 1991 01:12:43,630 --> 01:12:40,800 investigate it can I go for that Karen 1992 01:12:46,729 --> 01:12:43,640 yeah sure if you go 1993 01:12:49,310 --> 01:12:46,739 isn't it amazing huh you've got a crime 1994 01:12:51,709 --> 01:12:49,320 spree a vandalism that's happening over 1995 01:12:54,229 --> 01:12:51,719 40 years and it happens in the same 1996 01:12:55,790 --> 01:12:54,239 place every year and it would be really 1997 01:12:57,530 --> 01:12:55,800 easy to catch people because you'd only 1998 01:12:59,810 --> 01:12:57,540 have to stand five miles away and you'd 1999 01:13:03,530 --> 01:12:59,820 see torches and you just drive over and 2000 01:13:05,689 --> 01:13:03,540 arrest people and yet in 40 years we 2001 01:13:07,790 --> 01:13:05,699 have one arrest from someone making a 2002 01:13:10,490 --> 01:13:07,800 crop circle and he went to the police 2003 01:13:12,590 --> 01:13:10,500 and confessed I did it Governor you got 2004 01:13:13,790 --> 01:13:12,600 me and and they found a board and a 2005 01:13:16,070 --> 01:13:13,800 piece of rope leading against the wall 2006 01:13:17,510 --> 01:13:16,080 and said here's the evidence exhibit a 2007 01:13:19,430 --> 01:13:17,520 your honor 2008 01:13:21,590 --> 01:13:19,440 um that's not good enough for me as a 2009 01:13:23,510 --> 01:13:21,600 lawyer you know from the past I would 2010 01:13:25,729 --> 01:13:23,520 want to see far more evidence for that 2011 01:13:27,590 --> 01:13:25,739 and if I had a client that said yes I 2012 01:13:29,450 --> 01:13:27,600 murdered someone in Scotland last week 2013 01:13:31,729 --> 01:13:29,460 and I only had 25 minutes to get there 2014 01:13:33,350 --> 01:13:31,739 I'd say I think we need to section my 2015 01:13:36,590 --> 01:13:33,360 client because he's making unreasonable 2016 01:13:39,709 --> 01:13:36,600 claims your honor so um isn't it amazing 2017 01:13:41,270 --> 01:13:39,719 that we've had this 40-year crime spree 2018 01:13:42,950 --> 01:13:41,280 um in the same location can you imagine 2019 01:13:45,290 --> 01:13:42,960 a burglar turning up in your street 2020 01:13:46,910 --> 01:13:45,300 every year for 40 years and robbing 2021 01:13:48,709 --> 01:13:46,920 every house there and yet the police 2022 01:13:51,350 --> 01:13:48,719 couldn't catch him 2023 01:13:52,729 --> 01:13:51,360 or teams of them if there's 10 teams 2024 01:13:54,709 --> 01:13:52,739 that come from other countries as we've 2025 01:13:57,229 --> 01:13:54,719 been told over the years where do they 2026 01:13:59,990 --> 01:13:57,239 stay how do they hide how do they not 2027 01:14:02,390 --> 01:14:00,000 get seen how do they not get caught it 2028 01:14:04,550 --> 01:14:02,400 goes on and on it becomes ridiculous 2029 01:14:06,290 --> 01:14:04,560 would you not agree 2030 01:14:08,510 --> 01:14:06,300 and you know that's fair even thinking 2031 01:14:10,189 --> 01:14:08,520 about that that you would as you say 2032 01:14:12,169 --> 01:14:10,199 telling someone to go and do it you're 2033 01:14:13,729 --> 01:14:12,179 you're usually having to break into 2034 01:14:14,890 --> 01:14:13,739 someone's property aren't you like 2035 01:14:17,450 --> 01:14:14,900 that's perhaps 2036 01:14:19,250 --> 01:14:17,460 try and Destroy destroy what's going to 2037 01:14:20,390 --> 01:14:19,260 be food products and everything else as 2038 01:14:22,790 --> 01:14:20,400 well so yeah 2039 01:14:26,510 --> 01:14:22,800 also I'd just like to add to that that I 2040 01:14:28,550 --> 01:14:26,520 also think in in this conversation what 2041 01:14:33,110 --> 01:14:28,560 is not talked about anywhere near enough 2042 01:14:35,030 --> 01:14:33,120 are the farmers who you know have put up 2043 01:14:37,910 --> 01:14:35,040 with crop circles appearing on their 2044 01:14:40,729 --> 01:14:37,920 land sometimes for you know well for 30 2045 01:14:42,890 --> 01:14:40,739 years for instance you know who would 2046 01:14:44,209 --> 01:14:42,900 have maybe one or two a year 2047 01:14:52,430 --> 01:14:44,219 you know 2048 01:14:55,310 --> 01:14:52,440 really does upset them they find it some 2049 01:14:58,910 --> 01:14:55,320 of them find it very distressing 2050 01:15:00,649 --> 01:14:58,920 um and you know I think you know that 2051 01:15:02,450 --> 01:15:00,659 that's something that you know we need 2052 01:15:05,090 --> 01:15:02,460 to consider 2053 01:15:07,610 --> 01:15:05,100 um you know it's not not just fun and 2054 01:15:09,050 --> 01:15:07,620 games you know about who makes them and 2055 01:15:11,810 --> 01:15:09,060 all you know that there are people as 2056 01:15:14,390 --> 01:15:11,820 you say it affects their livelihood 2057 01:15:17,030 --> 01:15:14,400 um and I think that's a serious thing 2058 01:15:18,290 --> 01:15:17,040 um and I you know I mean some I mean 2059 01:15:20,810 --> 01:15:18,300 don't get me wrong some farmers are 2060 01:15:22,970 --> 01:15:20,820 great and they're just as fascinated by 2061 01:15:25,189 --> 01:15:22,980 by it as we are you know I've met some 2062 01:15:26,870 --> 01:15:25,199 great Farmers over the years and there 2063 01:15:27,890 --> 01:15:26,880 was one a couple of years ago who was 2064 01:15:30,169 --> 01:15:27,900 just 2065 01:15:32,030 --> 01:15:30,179 spent more of his time for two weeks 2066 01:15:33,649 --> 01:15:32,040 talking to people in his crop circle 2067 01:15:35,990 --> 01:15:33,659 than he did working on his farm because 2068 01:15:38,630 --> 01:15:36,000 he was just fascinated by what people 2069 01:15:41,330 --> 01:15:38,640 made of it so so it's not all bad news 2070 01:15:43,189 --> 01:15:41,340 but for some Farmers this is it it it's 2071 01:15:45,649 --> 01:15:43,199 distressing for them you know they they 2072 01:15:47,030 --> 01:15:45,659 don't a they don't want it there in the 2073 01:15:48,530 --> 01:15:47,040 first place and then they have to deal 2074 01:15:50,810 --> 01:15:48,540 with the fact that people want to come 2075 01:15:52,790 --> 01:15:50,820 and look at them you know 2076 01:15:54,410 --> 01:15:52,800 um and you know you just think you know 2077 01:15:57,050 --> 01:15:54,420 someday one of these Farmers is going to 2078 01:15:59,030 --> 01:15:57,060 give themselves a heart attack you know 2079 01:16:00,950 --> 01:15:59,040 patrolling up and down the field in 2080 01:16:03,229 --> 01:16:00,960 their Land Rover or whatever you know I 2081 01:16:05,090 --> 01:16:03,239 mean it's it's a serious thing I you 2082 01:16:07,430 --> 01:16:05,100 know I I think you know we shouldn't 2083 01:16:09,350 --> 01:16:07,440 talk glibly about it really I I feel 2084 01:16:12,470 --> 01:16:09,360 very sorry for some of them 2085 01:16:14,570 --> 01:16:12,480 yeah yeah a question from well-behaved 2086 01:16:17,390 --> 01:16:14,580 dogs on what may be causing some of 2087 01:16:19,130 --> 01:16:17,400 those early crop circles he uh he says 2088 01:16:20,810 --> 01:16:19,140 I'm assuming it's a he 2089 01:16:23,149 --> 01:16:20,820 um is it possible that some of the early 2090 01:16:26,149 --> 01:16:23,159 70s crop circles which were very simple 2091 01:16:29,030 --> 01:16:26,159 such as a circle and four dots were made 2092 01:16:30,830 --> 01:16:29,040 by satellite Mazer technology as a 2093 01:16:33,110 --> 01:16:30,840 simple calibration test and I had to 2094 01:16:35,149 --> 01:16:33,120 look up Mazer it wasn't a misspelling 2095 01:16:37,310 --> 01:16:35,159 and major Technology's an acronym for 2096 01:16:40,310 --> 01:16:37,320 microwave amplification by stimulated 2097 01:16:42,350 --> 01:16:40,320 emission of radiation wow 2098 01:16:43,490 --> 01:16:42,360 yeah I always I always love those sorts 2099 01:16:45,169 --> 01:16:43,500 of questions because I can just see all 2100 01:16:46,910 --> 01:16:45,179 the military generals sitting around the 2101 01:16:48,410 --> 01:16:46,920 table you know and and saying right what 2102 01:16:50,870 --> 01:16:48,420 are we going to do now to frighten the 2103 01:16:52,669 --> 01:16:50,880 pants off Vladimir Putin and one of them 2104 01:16:54,649 --> 01:16:52,679 steps up and says I know we'll invest 2105 01:16:56,330 --> 01:16:54,659 several billion pounds into creating 2106 01:16:59,570 --> 01:16:56,340 these satellites that can make pretty 2107 01:17:01,130 --> 01:16:59,580 patterns in flowers for 40 years and 2108 01:17:02,990 --> 01:17:01,140 frighten the pants off 2109 01:17:05,330 --> 01:17:03,000 I mean that's that doesn't doesn't 2110 01:17:08,930 --> 01:17:05,340 really go for that sort of spending or 2111 01:17:10,250 --> 01:17:08,940 justifying doing it just to just a I 2112 01:17:12,890 --> 01:17:10,260 don't know 2113 01:17:14,450 --> 01:17:12,900 make make some new age researchers 2114 01:17:16,910 --> 01:17:14,460 so-called New Age researchers like 2115 01:17:18,709 --> 01:17:16,920 ourselves look a bit silly it seems to 2116 01:17:20,870 --> 01:17:18,719 be in a misappropriation of funds I 2117 01:17:23,090 --> 01:17:20,880 would suggest to invest in that sort of 2118 01:17:24,950 --> 01:17:23,100 Technology it's possible that something 2119 01:17:27,590 --> 01:17:24,960 like that could be made but I don't know 2120 01:17:30,310 --> 01:17:27,600 why or why they would continue to use it 2121 01:17:32,870 --> 01:17:30,320 for all this time 2122 01:17:35,209 --> 01:17:32,880 I also think that if you're going to 2123 01:17:37,490 --> 01:17:35,219 test something like that this Salisbury 2124 01:17:38,709 --> 01:17:37,500 plane just a few miles away you would do 2125 01:17:41,510 --> 01:17:38,719 it there 2126 01:17:43,729 --> 01:17:41,520 because you can't fly over Salisbury 2127 01:17:45,110 --> 01:17:43,739 Plain without permission 2128 01:17:46,669 --> 01:17:45,120 um I mean I know because I've tried many 2129 01:17:48,290 --> 01:17:46,679 times um you know you have to get 2130 01:17:50,149 --> 01:17:48,300 permission from Air Traffic Control to 2131 01:17:52,430 --> 01:17:50,159 go over and if they're testing something 2132 01:17:55,010 --> 01:17:52,440 up there not a chance you'll get 2133 01:17:56,870 --> 01:17:55,020 anywhere near it so I I honestly I think 2134 01:17:58,669 --> 01:17:56,880 if they were testing something like that 2135 01:18:00,350 --> 01:17:58,679 it would be done away from the public 2136 01:18:02,149 --> 01:18:00,360 eye there would be no need to do it in 2137 01:18:03,890 --> 01:18:02,159 public at all 2138 01:18:05,750 --> 01:18:03,900 that was going to be what I was going to 2139 01:18:07,850 --> 01:18:05,760 see as well that you would test it you 2140 01:18:09,770 --> 01:18:07,860 know out in a out in a military range 2141 01:18:11,990 --> 01:18:09,780 somewhere you know far far away from the 2142 01:18:13,970 --> 01:18:12,000 public eye but then again in the UFO 2143 01:18:16,370 --> 01:18:13,980 topic we often talk about you know where 2144 01:18:18,649 --> 01:18:16,380 those Tic Tacs us technology testing on 2145 01:18:20,750 --> 01:18:18,659 their own you know are they flying 2146 01:18:23,149 --> 01:18:20,760 triangles of back engineered over public 2147 01:18:24,649 --> 01:18:23,159 areas because well why not if the 2148 01:18:26,570 --> 01:18:24,659 Technology's there but it's an 2149 01:18:28,610 --> 01:18:26,580 interesting debate but yeah for me I I 2150 01:18:30,229 --> 01:18:28,620 would agree that it would be a very 2151 01:18:31,790 --> 01:18:30,239 silly way to test that type of 2152 01:18:33,169 --> 01:18:31,800 Technology but that's not to say that 2153 01:18:35,090 --> 01:18:33,179 our governments and military base and 2154 01:18:37,189 --> 01:18:35,100 they'll make up the best decisions so 2155 01:18:39,229 --> 01:18:37,199 yeah good question 2156 01:18:41,510 --> 01:18:39,239 um this is similar to what we talked 2157 01:18:43,010 --> 01:18:41,520 about regarding the what are crop 2158 01:18:45,350 --> 01:18:43,020 circles but again just to convey 2159 01:18:47,390 --> 01:18:45,360 question from Jimmy he asks could you 2160 01:18:49,430 --> 01:18:47,400 ask Karen and Gary if they believe that 2161 01:18:52,070 --> 01:18:49,440 non-human-made crop circles are an 2162 01:18:53,630 --> 01:18:52,080 attempt at communication and if so any 2163 01:18:56,870 --> 01:18:53,640 ideas what they're trying to convey just 2164 01:18:59,149 --> 01:18:56,880 to summarize maybe what you said before 2165 01:19:01,490 --> 01:18:59,159 um yes I did I do think that there is 2166 01:19:03,470 --> 01:19:01,500 something that operates through through 2167 01:19:05,810 --> 01:19:03,480 the crop circle phenomenon that is 2168 01:19:07,729 --> 01:19:05,820 trying to communicate 2169 01:19:10,250 --> 01:19:07,739 um definitely and absolutely 2170 01:19:12,169 --> 01:19:10,260 um and and in many different well you 2171 01:19:14,209 --> 01:19:12,179 know whether it's you know through 2172 01:19:16,729 --> 01:19:14,219 through the geometry or the placement on 2173 01:19:18,649 --> 01:19:16,739 the landscape or you know whether it's 2174 01:19:20,930 --> 01:19:18,659 it's through all the various High 2175 01:19:26,050 --> 01:19:20,940 strangeness phenomena that's seen in and 2176 01:19:30,290 --> 01:19:28,729 UAP encounters as well that it's a 2177 01:19:32,630 --> 01:19:30,300 definite 2178 01:19:35,649 --> 01:19:32,640 um attempt at some kind of communication 2179 01:19:40,370 --> 01:19:38,390 I was going to ask would you say simply 2180 01:19:42,649 --> 01:19:40,380 an elastic cat in the same question and 2181 01:19:44,689 --> 01:19:42,659 I'm going to be abrupt and ask you for a 2182 01:19:47,090 --> 01:19:44,699 yes or no if someone came to you and 2183 01:19:48,530 --> 01:19:47,100 said again member of the public dipping 2184 01:19:51,169 --> 01:19:48,540 their toe into the crop circle 2185 01:19:54,530 --> 01:19:51,179 conversation are aliens making these 2186 01:19:56,330 --> 01:19:54,540 crop circles as your answer yes or is it 2187 01:19:59,330 --> 01:19:56,340 no or can you even answer with her yes 2188 01:20:01,550 --> 01:19:59,340 or no no I honestly don't know it's a 2189 01:20:03,229 --> 01:20:01,560 high degree of you know possibility that 2190 01:20:04,910 --> 01:20:03,239 it's connected to the UFO phenomenon we 2191 01:20:07,610 --> 01:20:04,920 can go over the reasons for that but 2192 01:20:08,930 --> 01:20:07,620 ultimately we we don't really know for 2193 01:20:10,729 --> 01:20:08,940 sure 2194 01:20:12,770 --> 01:20:10,739 um that's that's that would be my answer 2195 01:20:14,990 --> 01:20:12,780 yes and I think I would I would concur 2196 01:20:16,729 --> 01:20:15,000 with that because we really we really 2197 01:20:18,169 --> 01:20:16,739 don't know what's I mean just as much as 2198 01:20:20,630 --> 01:20:18,179 we really don't know what's behind the 2199 01:20:22,250 --> 01:20:20,640 UAP phenomenon itself we certainly don't 2200 01:20:23,990 --> 01:20:22,260 we're in we're in exactly the same 2201 01:20:26,750 --> 01:20:24,000 position with this 2202 01:20:28,130 --> 01:20:26,760 no that's fair um Gary I'll come to you 2203 01:20:29,689 --> 01:20:28,140 for the next question then and it's 2204 01:20:32,090 --> 01:20:29,699 something we touched on before but I'll 2205 01:20:33,950 --> 01:20:32,100 expand on it from Kendra 2206 01:20:36,050 --> 01:20:33,960 um she would like to know if based on 2207 01:20:37,729 --> 01:20:36,060 your research the rate of crop circles 2208 01:20:40,130 --> 01:20:37,739 have dropped since they were first 2209 01:20:41,110 --> 01:20:40,140 documented Karen mentioned it seemed to 2210 01:20:43,850 --> 01:20:41,120 Peak around 2211 01:20:45,410 --> 01:20:43,860 2009-2010 and has maybe dwindled a 2212 01:20:48,649 --> 01:20:45,420 little since then do you think that's 2213 01:20:51,530 --> 01:20:48,659 because of their reported less because 2214 01:20:53,810 --> 01:20:51,540 of any kind of stigma or is it the 2215 01:20:55,970 --> 01:20:53,820 actual number of them appearing seem to 2216 01:20:57,770 --> 01:20:55,980 have reduced 2217 01:20:59,630 --> 01:20:57,780 um the number of them does seem to have 2218 01:21:02,030 --> 01:20:59,640 been reduced definitely 2219 01:21:03,590 --> 01:21:02,040 um since around 2012 I would say just 2220 01:21:05,630 --> 01:21:03,600 after that they've started to decline 2221 01:21:08,390 --> 01:21:05,640 although as Karen mentioned earlier 2222 01:21:11,149 --> 01:21:08,400 excuse me the quality of the ones that 2223 01:21:13,729 --> 01:21:11,159 do appear still you know maintain quite 2224 01:21:14,870 --> 01:21:13,739 a high level of complexity and all the 2225 01:21:16,790 --> 01:21:14,880 other things that we've discussed 2226 01:21:18,770 --> 01:21:16,800 earlier 2227 01:21:21,350 --> 01:21:18,780 um but but let's not forget you know 2228 01:21:23,630 --> 01:21:21,360 during the hey days of crop circles 2229 01:21:25,910 --> 01:21:23,640 we're not just talking one that appears 2230 01:21:27,590 --> 01:21:25,920 on a Monday night and then two weeks on 2231 01:21:30,169 --> 01:21:27,600 the following Tuesday we might get 2232 01:21:31,669 --> 01:21:30,179 another one there are occasions many 2233 01:21:33,649 --> 01:21:31,679 occasions if you care to look back 2234 01:21:36,350 --> 01:21:33,659 through the records where there are 2235 01:21:39,470 --> 01:21:36,360 multiple crop circles over several 2236 01:21:41,330 --> 01:21:39,480 nights consecutively and so you know you 2237 01:21:44,209 --> 01:21:41,340 might when I used to visit them back 2238 01:21:46,070 --> 01:21:44,219 between 1907 and 2007. I I really 2239 01:21:48,290 --> 01:21:46,080 remember coming over from Cardiff really 2240 01:21:50,209 --> 01:21:48,300 early and and there and oh there were 2241 01:21:52,610 --> 01:21:50,219 five that have just been reported and 2242 01:21:54,350 --> 01:21:52,620 they go well I can't even get round five 2243 01:21:55,850 --> 01:21:54,360 and walk around them and take a good 2244 01:21:58,070 --> 01:21:55,860 invest you know a good look at them in 2245 01:21:59,750 --> 01:21:58,080 in a day I need to be here for several 2246 01:22:01,250 --> 01:21:59,760 days just to cover and then you wake up 2247 01:22:02,870 --> 01:22:01,260 the next day and there's another three 2248 01:22:05,810 --> 01:22:02,880 and then four the next day and you're 2249 01:22:07,430 --> 01:22:05,820 like hang on a minute on on 777 when 2250 01:22:10,850 --> 01:22:07,440 that huge crop circle appeared in front 2251 01:22:13,310 --> 01:22:10,860 of us mysteriously there were seven crop 2252 01:22:16,790 --> 01:22:13,320 circles that night 2253 01:22:19,010 --> 01:22:16,800 reported so so am I am I to believe that 2254 01:22:20,570 --> 01:22:19,020 you know seven mysterious teams of x 2255 01:22:22,310 --> 01:22:20,580 amount of people went out on the same 2256 01:22:24,229 --> 01:22:22,320 night as they had done over the years 2257 01:22:26,030 --> 01:22:24,239 I'm not I'm not actually sure what the 2258 01:22:28,250 --> 01:22:26,040 record for numbering of appearing in one 2259 01:22:29,209 --> 01:22:28,260 night Karen is do you no I'm afraid I 2260 01:22:31,669 --> 01:22:29,219 don't 2261 01:22:32,510 --> 01:22:31,679 no but but I can tell you that you know 2262 01:22:35,990 --> 01:22:32,520 you're going to just look through 2263 01:22:38,750 --> 01:22:36,000 Karen's archives on her website 2264 01:22:40,669 --> 01:22:38,760 um you you will find that there are 2265 01:22:41,930 --> 01:22:40,679 numbers and numbers of them are appeared 2266 01:22:43,189 --> 01:22:41,940 on the same night and then the next 2267 01:22:44,090 --> 01:22:43,199 night the next night the next night and 2268 01:22:47,510 --> 01:22:44,100 you're like well hang on a minute this 2269 01:22:50,270 --> 01:22:47,520 is this is a serious workload 2270 01:22:52,790 --> 01:22:50,280 so there's a question from Shane asks 2271 01:22:55,970 --> 01:22:52,800 there's a famous video of uh orbs 2272 01:22:58,070 --> 01:22:55,980 creating a crop circle that was um 2273 01:23:00,709 --> 01:22:58,080 they've used about the veracity of the 2274 01:23:01,910 --> 01:23:00,719 Nat Geo National Geographic debunking of 2275 01:23:03,890 --> 01:23:01,920 that video 2276 01:23:05,390 --> 01:23:03,900 um have you seen that yeah and again 2277 01:23:08,350 --> 01:23:05,400 what do you think of those types of 2278 01:23:11,090 --> 01:23:08,360 videos that seem to show very clearly 2279 01:23:13,610 --> 01:23:11,100 orbs for example creating crop circles 2280 01:23:15,169 --> 01:23:13,620 is there anything caught on camera that 2281 01:23:16,790 --> 01:23:15,179 you would look at and say that is 100 2282 01:23:18,229 --> 01:23:16,800 genuine 2283 01:23:21,350 --> 01:23:18,239 well 2284 01:23:23,990 --> 01:23:21,360 we'll get to the the um the Nat Geo 2285 01:23:26,390 --> 01:23:24,000 video in just a second but 2286 01:23:28,490 --> 01:23:26,400 my husband Steve Alexander 2287 01:23:32,810 --> 01:23:28,500 um filmed a ball of light in a field 2288 01:23:33,770 --> 01:23:32,820 with a crop circle back in 1990 2289 01:23:36,169 --> 01:23:33,780 um and 2290 01:23:37,669 --> 01:23:36,179 um he was with his his then wife at the 2291 01:23:39,229 --> 01:23:37,679 time 2292 01:23:40,910 --> 01:23:39,239 um and the crop circle 2293 01:23:42,229 --> 01:23:40,920 um was in the field below him it was up 2294 01:23:44,630 --> 01:23:42,239 on a hill 2295 01:23:46,669 --> 01:23:44,640 um and he could see this what looked 2296 01:23:48,550 --> 01:23:46,679 like a small ball of Light It was kind 2297 01:23:51,950 --> 01:23:48,560 of glinting and flashing in the sunlight 2298 01:23:55,189 --> 01:23:51,960 it kind of moved around the the field a 2299 01:23:57,110 --> 01:23:55,199 little bit it it dipped down into the 2300 01:23:59,630 --> 01:23:57,120 crop for a little while it came back up 2301 01:24:02,510 --> 01:23:59,640 again and eventually it flew off into 2302 01:24:06,169 --> 01:24:02,520 the distance and as it did so it flew 2303 01:24:08,030 --> 01:24:06,179 over the top of a farm worker in a 2304 01:24:10,490 --> 01:24:08,040 tractor who was turning the field he was 2305 01:24:12,950 --> 01:24:10,500 turning the crop um the soil 2306 01:24:15,290 --> 01:24:12,960 as this thing went over he saw it he 2307 01:24:18,890 --> 01:24:15,300 said it was the sun it was the size of a 2308 01:24:20,750 --> 01:24:18,900 beach ball it was like a bright 2309 01:24:22,850 --> 01:24:20,760 um light it didn't go far over his head 2310 01:24:25,310 --> 01:24:22,860 at all as it went over the engine of his 2311 01:24:28,250 --> 01:24:25,320 track to cut out 2312 01:24:31,130 --> 01:24:28,260 um and he said he kind of had this 2313 01:24:34,250 --> 01:24:31,140 moment where whereas it went over 2314 01:24:36,410 --> 01:24:34,260 everything just stopped and he couldn't 2315 01:24:38,510 --> 01:24:36,420 he couldn't quite remember why he'd 2316 01:24:40,130 --> 01:24:38,520 stopped or what what was happening but 2317 01:24:41,810 --> 01:24:40,140 then this thing kind of went right up 2318 01:24:44,270 --> 01:24:41,820 into the air where you couldn't see it 2319 01:24:47,090 --> 01:24:44,280 on the camera anymore and then his 2320 01:24:50,149 --> 01:24:47,100 engine started up again and he was able 2321 01:24:52,250 --> 01:24:50,159 to carry on doing what he was doing 2322 01:24:55,130 --> 01:24:52,260 um and I can tell you that video is 2323 01:24:57,470 --> 01:24:55,140 absolutely 100 genuine it's never been 2324 01:24:59,810 --> 01:24:57,480 messed about with he's had it um 2325 01:25:01,550 --> 01:24:59,820 analyzed several times 2326 01:25:03,290 --> 01:25:01,560 um it's you know again you know people 2327 01:25:04,310 --> 01:25:03,300 have been able to show that it's it's 2328 01:25:05,930 --> 01:25:04,320 it's 2329 01:25:08,810 --> 01:25:05,940 um not been interfered with in any way 2330 01:25:11,689 --> 01:25:08,820 as to what it is I don't know and people 2331 01:25:13,790 --> 01:25:11,699 have said oh maybe it's a bird or 2332 01:25:15,229 --> 01:25:13,800 um or whatever but um it certainly 2333 01:25:17,570 --> 01:25:15,239 wasn't a bird that the tractor driver 2334 01:25:19,130 --> 01:25:17,580 saw when it went over his head and 2335 01:25:22,850 --> 01:25:19,140 certainly a bird wouldn't cut your 2336 01:25:24,649 --> 01:25:22,860 tractor engine out so that is it the the 2337 01:25:26,330 --> 01:25:24,659 ball of light didn't make the crop 2338 01:25:35,169 --> 01:25:26,340 circle the crop circle was already there 2339 01:25:39,110 --> 01:25:37,370 now and 2340 01:25:41,270 --> 01:25:39,120 um and again you know there were many 2341 01:25:43,130 --> 01:25:41,280 synchronicities that led to being that 2342 01:25:46,250 --> 01:25:43,140 there that day at that time the Camry 2343 01:25:49,070 --> 01:25:46,260 was operating wasn't even his own so you 2344 01:25:52,790 --> 01:25:49,080 know there was all that as well to it 2345 01:25:55,910 --> 01:25:52,800 um but the the piece that was shown it 2346 01:25:57,590 --> 01:25:55,920 on the Nat Geo that was um filmed I 2347 01:26:01,070 --> 01:25:57,600 think in 2348 01:26:02,750 --> 01:26:01,080 was it 1996 wasn't it I think at a place 2349 01:26:04,850 --> 01:26:02,760 called yeah 96 at a place called 2350 01:26:06,830 --> 01:26:04,860 Oliver's Castle in Wiltshire and again 2351 01:26:08,750 --> 01:26:06,840 it was known for 2352 01:26:10,970 --> 01:26:08,760 um crop circles the crop circle itself 2353 01:26:12,169 --> 01:26:10,980 was definitely there I know because I 2354 01:26:13,729 --> 01:26:12,179 went in it 2355 01:26:16,610 --> 01:26:13,739 um so the crop circle pilot is 2356 01:26:18,169 --> 01:26:16,620 definitely there the video is slightly 2357 01:26:20,689 --> 01:26:18,179 controversial 2358 01:26:22,790 --> 01:26:20,699 um for many reasons and there are 2359 01:26:24,470 --> 01:26:22,800 researchers that would say that they 2360 01:26:27,169 --> 01:26:24,480 definitely felt it was something real 2361 01:26:28,370 --> 01:26:27,179 there are others that are not so sure 2362 01:26:30,290 --> 01:26:28,380 um for me 2363 01:26:32,810 --> 01:26:30,300 a kind of 2364 01:26:34,189 --> 01:26:32,820 I'm not sure about it 2365 01:26:36,410 --> 01:26:34,199 um and 2366 01:26:39,350 --> 01:26:36,420 um I guess I'm not sure because the 2367 01:26:42,890 --> 01:26:39,360 person who took it has never really sort 2368 01:26:45,290 --> 01:26:42,900 of come forward publicly to say I think 2369 01:26:48,250 --> 01:26:45,300 he did for a while he came forward for a 2370 01:26:51,649 --> 01:26:48,260 while and said yes I took this 2371 01:26:54,770 --> 01:26:51,659 but there's just something that holds me 2372 01:26:56,629 --> 01:26:54,780 I'm just not quite satisfied about it 2373 01:26:59,149 --> 01:26:56,639 but I understand that a lot of other 2374 01:27:02,390 --> 01:26:59,159 people are and and I absolutely respect 2375 01:27:04,250 --> 01:27:02,400 that so um so I'm kind of a little bit 2376 01:27:06,530 --> 01:27:04,260 unsure about that but but 2377 01:27:09,229 --> 01:27:06,540 what I do like about it is that it does 2378 01:27:11,689 --> 01:27:09,239 kind of show what a lot of people which 2379 01:27:13,550 --> 01:27:11,699 is what a lot of people think how a crop 2380 01:27:15,229 --> 01:27:13,560 circle might be made by balls of light 2381 01:27:17,930 --> 01:27:15,239 so that it's interesting from that point 2382 01:27:21,830 --> 01:27:17,940 of view but I I mean Gary might have a 2383 01:27:25,970 --> 01:27:24,110 um no I pretty much Echo the same as 2384 01:27:27,890 --> 01:27:25,980 Karen I mean it's such a shame that we 2385 01:27:29,330 --> 01:27:27,900 were never able I was never able to meet 2386 01:27:31,610 --> 01:27:29,340 up with John Whaley I know people that 2387 01:27:33,950 --> 01:27:31,620 did and they saw him after the event and 2388 01:27:35,750 --> 01:27:33,960 as many people described to me the kind 2389 01:27:38,090 --> 01:27:35,760 of pressure he came under as a young 19 2390 01:27:40,310 --> 01:27:38,100 year old who got this incredible footage 2391 01:27:42,050 --> 01:27:40,320 and he didn't know how to handle it and 2392 01:27:45,050 --> 01:27:42,060 I can understand all of those things 2393 01:27:46,970 --> 01:27:45,060 they all seem perfectly reasonable to me 2394 01:27:50,330 --> 01:27:46,980 um there are a number of factors which 2395 01:27:52,189 --> 01:27:50,340 which give me cause to pause just like 2396 01:27:54,290 --> 01:27:52,199 like Karen mentioned and also a number 2397 01:27:56,090 --> 01:27:54,300 of factors which made me think well you 2398 01:27:59,270 --> 01:27:56,100 know how did they do this because we're 2399 01:28:01,550 --> 01:27:59,280 talking 1996 technology 2400 01:28:03,830 --> 01:28:01,560 and like with Karen's not you know her 2401 01:28:06,830 --> 01:28:03,840 husband's experience in in 1990s it's 2402 01:28:08,390 --> 01:28:06,840 old camera footage which is nowadays if 2403 01:28:09,590 --> 01:28:08,400 we produce something now I could not 2404 01:28:11,390 --> 01:28:09,600 probably knock something up that would 2405 01:28:13,669 --> 01:28:11,400 be very good in in apple motion you know 2406 01:28:16,310 --> 01:28:13,679 it's it's it's laptop stuff now but back 2407 01:28:19,070 --> 01:28:16,320 in 1996 not so easy 2408 01:28:22,189 --> 01:28:19,080 and you know I know that the footage was 2409 01:28:24,950 --> 01:28:22,199 a lot longer than the the original 2410 01:28:26,750 --> 01:28:24,960 footage than what we see on YouTube the 2411 01:28:28,310 --> 01:28:26,760 original footage was went on for quite 2412 01:28:30,229 --> 01:28:28,320 some time 2413 01:28:33,110 --> 01:28:30,239 um and there's a whole story behind how 2414 01:28:34,370 --> 01:28:33,120 that went missing and so on and so forth 2415 01:28:34,970 --> 01:28:34,380 but 2416 01:28:37,010 --> 01:28:34,980 um 2417 01:28:39,290 --> 01:28:37,020 the fact that the footage was going the 2418 01:28:41,689 --> 01:28:39,300 the camera was handheld and it was going 2419 01:28:43,250 --> 01:28:41,699 up and down and I watched the couple of 2420 01:28:44,689 --> 01:28:43,260 laboratory analysis of it where it was 2421 01:28:46,970 --> 01:28:44,699 sent off and they and they sort of 2422 01:28:49,310 --> 01:28:46,980 mapped it frame by frame at 25 frames a 2423 01:28:51,590 --> 01:28:49,320 second and these balls maintained their 2424 01:28:52,729 --> 01:28:51,600 height they showed no signs of 2425 01:28:54,590 --> 01:28:52,739 of of 2426 01:28:56,990 --> 01:28:54,600 um of shadowing or casting or anything 2427 01:28:58,669 --> 01:28:57,000 that would indicate that they were they 2428 01:29:00,050 --> 01:28:58,679 were frauds and because the camera was 2429 01:29:01,669 --> 01:29:00,060 going up and down and you could see the 2430 01:29:05,510 --> 01:29:01,679 Horizon moving that would be very 2431 01:29:07,430 --> 01:29:05,520 difficult to do in the time frame that 2432 01:29:08,689 --> 01:29:07,440 this man produced this evidence the 2433 01:29:09,890 --> 01:29:08,699 following morning because we know the 2434 01:29:12,410 --> 01:29:09,900 crop circle wasn't there the night 2435 01:29:14,030 --> 01:29:12,420 before so we've got a time frame where 2436 01:29:16,550 --> 01:29:14,040 we can say that okay that had to have 2437 01:29:18,290 --> 01:29:16,560 happened in that window and I struggle 2438 01:29:20,149 --> 01:29:18,300 and also there was a there was a 2439 01:29:23,090 --> 01:29:20,159 filmmaker a Norwegian filmmaker called 2440 01:29:26,209 --> 01:29:23,100 Terry toffness who when he made a film 2441 01:29:29,830 --> 01:29:26,219 back in the 90s uh no two early 2000s uh 2442 01:29:33,530 --> 01:29:29,840 he consulted some Disney animators 2443 01:29:35,629 --> 01:29:33,540 and yeah I think this was 2004 and he 2444 01:29:37,550 --> 01:29:35,639 said okay what would it take if you knew 2445 01:29:38,990 --> 01:29:37,560 with all your with all your gear you 2446 01:29:40,490 --> 01:29:39,000 know your professional gear that you 2447 01:29:42,530 --> 01:29:40,500 make Mickey Mouse out of and all the 2448 01:29:44,810 --> 01:29:42,540 rest of it what would it take for you to 2449 01:29:46,550 --> 01:29:44,820 to do this for me and and they said well 2450 01:29:48,770 --> 01:29:46,560 maybe a couple of weeks but there's 2451 01:29:50,689 --> 01:29:48,780 issues with this and issues with that as 2452 01:29:51,470 --> 01:29:50,699 I said now it would be easy but but back 2453 01:29:53,330 --> 01:29:51,480 then 2454 01:29:56,030 --> 01:29:53,340 that's what makes me go like that you 2455 01:29:57,890 --> 01:29:56,040 know but as I said earlier I don't pin 2456 01:29:58,910 --> 01:29:57,900 the whole thing on one formation you 2457 01:30:00,530 --> 01:29:58,920 know 2458 01:30:02,510 --> 01:30:00,540 um there's a lot of them and and we've 2459 01:30:05,330 --> 01:30:02,520 got a lot to talk about really when we 2460 01:30:08,390 --> 01:30:05,340 consider the ones that that um 2461 01:30:10,310 --> 01:30:08,400 that that really do defy any kind of 2462 01:30:12,770 --> 01:30:10,320 rational logic 2463 01:30:15,350 --> 01:30:12,780 and a final question from uh gnosis long 2464 01:30:16,910 --> 01:30:15,360 time listener and contributor uh my late 2465 01:30:19,610 --> 01:30:16,920 grandfather was a farmer in 2466 01:30:22,010 --> 01:30:19,620 Cambridgeshire during the 1950s and 60s 2467 01:30:23,930 --> 01:30:22,020 when crop Cycles became mainstream in 2468 01:30:26,209 --> 01:30:23,940 the 80s he claimed to have seen a few of 2469 01:30:28,070 --> 01:30:26,219 them over the years however there were 2470 01:30:30,709 --> 01:30:28,080 always just a singular Circle rather 2471 01:30:33,110 --> 01:30:30,719 than patterns and never very large they 2472 01:30:35,209 --> 01:30:33,120 were always put down to swirling winds 2473 01:30:37,610 --> 01:30:35,219 do any historical records or photos 2474 01:30:39,890 --> 01:30:37,620 exist from the mid 20th century on this 2475 01:30:41,870 --> 01:30:39,900 phenomenon so yes so that was the book 2476 01:30:44,450 --> 01:30:41,880 we're talking about which 2477 01:30:46,310 --> 01:30:44,460 um I think is called a is it um 2478 01:30:49,669 --> 01:30:46,320 something like a short history of crop 2479 01:30:51,590 --> 01:30:49,679 circles or something by by Terry Wilson 2480 01:30:53,209 --> 01:30:51,600 um and as I said the physical copies are 2481 01:30:55,729 --> 01:30:53,219 a bit hard to get but you can get it on 2482 01:30:56,870 --> 01:30:55,739 a on an electronic copy from Amazon and 2483 01:30:59,510 --> 01:30:56,880 it's well worth to read there's some 2484 01:31:01,729 --> 01:30:59,520 good photos in there and and some nice 2485 01:31:03,110 --> 01:31:01,739 historical stories so yes the answer is 2486 01:31:05,689 --> 01:31:03,120 yes basically 2487 01:31:07,010 --> 01:31:05,699 yeah I remember John Martin on some of 2488 01:31:08,450 --> 01:31:07,020 the early researchers also telling me 2489 01:31:12,050 --> 01:31:08,460 that they took flights in those early 2490 01:31:14,030 --> 01:31:12,060 days and I'm I'm really vividly John 2491 01:31:15,649 --> 01:31:14,040 Martin telling me that he flew one day 2492 01:31:17,629 --> 01:31:15,659 and there was he said it was like a 2493 01:31:19,310 --> 01:31:17,639 paintbrush had been flicked across the 2494 01:31:22,729 --> 01:31:19,320 landscape and there were just these 2495 01:31:25,189 --> 01:31:22,739 random Circles of sizes across Fields 2496 01:31:28,010 --> 01:31:25,199 many fields too many of them for people 2497 01:31:29,570 --> 01:31:28,020 to just go out and do and and there was 2498 01:31:31,070 --> 01:31:29,580 no kind of pattern to them that he could 2499 01:31:33,290 --> 01:31:31,080 discern but he was just like someone 2500 01:31:35,750 --> 01:31:33,300 something or something other was doing 2501 01:31:37,850 --> 01:31:35,760 it for the fun of it just to 2502 01:31:39,229 --> 01:31:37,860 just there's there's a kind of humor to 2503 01:31:41,570 --> 01:31:39,239 it in some ways that we've all 2504 01:31:44,209 --> 01:31:41,580 experienced but yes and so he said there 2505 01:31:46,729 --> 01:31:44,219 just seemed no reason for you know that 2506 01:31:49,310 --> 01:31:46,739 many simple circles it's 2507 01:31:50,689 --> 01:31:49,320 something that he witnessed so I I think 2508 01:31:53,149 --> 01:31:50,699 that's how they got our attention really 2509 01:31:54,830 --> 01:31:53,159 even if my teacher the guy who took me 2510 01:31:56,990 --> 01:31:54,840 to the crop circle said you know it's 2511 01:31:58,790 --> 01:31:57,000 like we were being reminded again to go 2512 01:32:00,709 --> 01:31:58,800 back in the past remember one remember 2513 01:32:02,990 --> 01:32:00,719 how you looked at the number one you 2514 01:32:04,550 --> 01:32:03,000 know it's not just about quantities it's 2515 01:32:05,990 --> 01:32:04,560 about qualities and we want we want to 2516 01:32:07,610 --> 01:32:06,000 take you back to the beginning and so 2517 01:32:09,050 --> 01:32:07,620 the early circles were ones and then 2518 01:32:10,669 --> 01:32:09,060 once we've paid attention they turned 2519 01:32:12,709 --> 01:32:10,679 into two circles and then three and then 2520 01:32:15,290 --> 01:32:12,719 we had this Evolution that took us on a 2521 01:32:17,510 --> 01:32:15,300 journey of how numbers start to play 2522 01:32:20,689 --> 01:32:17,520 together in geometric forms but but it 2523 01:32:22,370 --> 01:32:20,699 all started with the basics 2524 01:32:25,729 --> 01:32:22,380 let me finish with a question from 2525 01:32:28,129 --> 01:32:25,739 myself then for both of you where do you 2526 01:32:31,610 --> 01:32:28,139 see crop circles fitting into the 2527 01:32:33,709 --> 01:32:31,620 overall UFO phenomenon mystery you know 2528 01:32:35,330 --> 01:32:33,719 for someone who's an avid follower of 2529 01:32:37,129 --> 01:32:35,340 the UFO topic and there's people who 2530 01:32:39,290 --> 01:32:37,139 listen to this who tell me they've been 2531 01:32:41,570 --> 01:32:39,300 into the subject for 50 or 60 years and 2532 01:32:43,129 --> 01:32:41,580 listened to the podcast and others who 2533 01:32:46,189 --> 01:32:43,139 literally in the last couple of months 2534 01:32:48,350 --> 01:32:46,199 heard a pilot on Joe Rogan and went 2535 01:32:50,750 --> 01:32:48,360 looking for UFO stuff and came across 2536 01:32:52,850 --> 01:32:50,760 the podcast which is great and where 2537 01:32:54,649 --> 01:32:52,860 does the crop circle mystery for you fit 2538 01:32:57,229 --> 01:32:54,659 into the UFO topic 2539 01:33:00,410 --> 01:32:57,239 I think because because it's very 2540 01:33:02,930 --> 01:33:00,420 possible that we are dealing with 2541 01:33:06,050 --> 01:33:02,940 um a a 2542 01:33:08,870 --> 01:33:06,060 unknown intelligence operating through 2543 01:33:12,590 --> 01:33:08,880 through the phenomenon and and and again 2544 01:33:14,770 --> 01:33:12,600 going back to that idea that that to me 2545 01:33:17,510 --> 01:33:14,780 all this is about 2546 01:33:19,430 --> 01:33:17,520 you know the the evolution of human 2547 01:33:21,290 --> 01:33:19,440 consciousness if you like that we're 2548 01:33:24,709 --> 01:33:21,300 beginning to realize 2549 01:33:27,350 --> 01:33:24,719 that that the UFO the crop circles the 2550 01:33:29,990 --> 01:33:27,360 Paranormal in general if you like are 2551 01:33:33,290 --> 01:33:30,000 all signs and symbols showing us that we 2552 01:33:35,270 --> 01:33:33,300 belong to this greater reality and you 2553 01:33:37,250 --> 01:33:35,280 know like with the UAP subject now we're 2554 01:33:39,590 --> 01:33:37,260 just beginning to you know like the 2555 01:33:40,490 --> 01:33:39,600 upgrades in the radar have shown all 2556 01:33:42,770 --> 01:33:40,500 these 2557 01:33:45,229 --> 01:33:42,780 um new things in the sky that we didn't 2558 01:33:46,790 --> 01:33:45,239 perhaps know were there I think that's 2559 01:33:49,430 --> 01:33:46,800 kind of what's happening on the human 2560 01:33:51,590 --> 01:33:49,440 level it's like a you know that these 2561 01:33:55,610 --> 01:33:51,600 experiences kind of Pierce our reality 2562 01:33:58,669 --> 01:33:55,620 and then then a curtain is drawn back 2563 01:34:02,149 --> 01:33:58,679 um and maybe in 10 10 years time maybe 2564 01:34:04,550 --> 01:34:02,159 this will just be one of these what I I 2565 01:34:07,189 --> 01:34:04,560 like to call it you know initiate it or 2566 01:34:09,530 --> 01:34:07,199 transformational phenomena that allow 2567 01:34:11,330 --> 01:34:09,540 human beings to finally realize that we 2568 01:34:13,370 --> 01:34:11,340 are part of this greater reality and 2569 01:34:16,070 --> 01:34:13,380 that there are intelligence is out there 2570 01:34:18,350 --> 01:34:16,080 that want to communicate with us so 2571 01:34:21,709 --> 01:34:18,360 that's kind of where how I see it 2572 01:34:24,649 --> 01:34:21,719 fitting in and perhaps where is it go 2573 01:34:26,870 --> 01:34:24,659 yeah Gary much the same really I mean I 2574 01:34:29,209 --> 01:34:26,880 think I think that um there's so many 2575 01:34:31,129 --> 01:34:29,219 possibilities but consciousness 2576 01:34:32,570 --> 01:34:31,139 can be looked at as a technology in some 2577 01:34:35,810 --> 01:34:32,580 ways and maybe maybe what we're looking 2578 01:34:38,450 --> 01:34:35,820 at with the uaps is you know um not so 2579 01:34:40,310 --> 01:34:38,460 much of an engineering technology but it 2580 01:34:43,189 --> 01:34:40,320 may be something that's engineered and 2581 01:34:45,050 --> 01:34:43,199 also combined with a hidden unknown part 2582 01:34:46,669 --> 01:34:45,060 of Consciousness that we we currently 2583 01:34:49,010 --> 01:34:46,679 don't know about and we may be being 2584 01:34:51,229 --> 01:34:49,020 shown how we can 2585 01:34:53,330 --> 01:34:51,239 you know begin to develop ourselves and 2586 01:34:55,990 --> 01:34:53,340 our own Consciousness so that we can um 2587 01:34:57,890 --> 01:34:56,000 expand that for one sort of a better 2588 01:34:59,209 --> 01:34:57,900 non-cliched word but expand our 2589 01:35:01,550 --> 01:34:59,219 Consciousness in a way that we can 2590 01:35:04,729 --> 01:35:01,560 become a part of this bigger community 2591 01:35:06,590 --> 01:35:04,739 of of intelligences 2592 01:35:09,830 --> 01:35:06,600 um I I always remember Alan Brown saying 2593 01:35:11,990 --> 01:35:09,840 you know when you when he discovered the 2594 01:35:13,910 --> 01:35:12,000 um the hidden squared circles in crop 2595 01:35:15,590 --> 01:35:13,920 circles he said 2596 01:35:17,450 --> 01:35:15,600 when you when you have something that's 2597 01:35:19,910 --> 01:35:17,460 quite complicated and many people have 2598 01:35:21,649 --> 01:35:19,920 gone diving into complexity to try and 2599 01:35:23,810 --> 01:35:21,659 find solutions to that puzzle over the 2600 01:35:25,729 --> 01:35:23,820 years when you find that that solution 2601 01:35:28,250 --> 01:35:25,739 has been given to us with five simple 2602 01:35:29,629 --> 01:35:28,260 circles what the quim tubelets that we 2603 01:35:31,970 --> 01:35:29,639 call them 2604 01:35:34,370 --> 01:35:31,980 um in so many variations that these 2605 01:35:35,570 --> 01:35:34,380 Solutions just pop out and pop out he 2606 01:35:37,729 --> 01:35:35,580 said that when you when you get 2607 01:35:40,669 --> 01:35:37,739 something that's what you think to be 2608 01:35:42,290 --> 01:35:40,679 what we think to be very complicated but 2609 01:35:44,030 --> 01:35:42,300 it but the solution is actually really 2610 01:35:46,250 --> 01:35:44,040 really simple that children could 2611 01:35:47,870 --> 01:35:46,260 understand it then you're really dealing 2612 01:35:49,250 --> 01:35:47,880 with a higher intelligence because any 2613 01:35:50,930 --> 01:35:49,260 intelligence that can take something 2614 01:35:54,050 --> 01:35:50,940 which is complicated and make it really 2615 01:35:56,870 --> 01:35:54,060 really simple is is in my definition 2616 01:35:59,090 --> 01:35:56,880 well I learned from Alan you know a high 2617 01:36:01,250 --> 01:35:59,100 intelligence and so I think I think that 2618 01:36:03,649 --> 01:36:01,260 you know we're looking at a an 2619 01:36:06,350 --> 01:36:03,659 intelligence that's that's already 2620 01:36:08,510 --> 01:36:06,360 evolved and we're on the cusp of that 2621 01:36:09,950 --> 01:36:08,520 Evolution quite possibly and there are 2622 01:36:11,390 --> 01:36:09,960 lots of reasons to think about that with 2623 01:36:14,030 --> 01:36:11,400 the state of what we're doing to each 2624 01:36:16,189 --> 01:36:14,040 other in the world right now and so on 2625 01:36:18,290 --> 01:36:16,199 um that I remember Karen said years ago 2626 01:36:19,970 --> 01:36:18,300 is something that really really stayed 2627 01:36:21,590 --> 01:36:19,980 with me when she said it's all that crop 2628 01:36:23,450 --> 01:36:21,600 circle is almost like cards on the table 2629 01:36:26,209 --> 01:36:23,460 like a therapy lesson that we're being 2630 01:36:28,010 --> 01:36:26,219 shown maybe where our ancestors were we 2631 01:36:30,410 --> 01:36:28,020 built the pyramids and the stone circles 2632 01:36:32,390 --> 01:36:30,420 and stuff and their understanding of 2633 01:36:33,770 --> 01:36:32,400 Consciousness in a different way and a 2634 01:36:35,689 --> 01:36:33,780 different technology that we can't 2635 01:36:36,950 --> 01:36:35,699 understand now that's maybe responsible 2636 01:36:38,090 --> 01:36:36,960 for building some of these monuments 2637 01:36:40,370 --> 01:36:38,100 that we can't understand from an 2638 01:36:42,229 --> 01:36:40,380 engineering perspective 2639 01:36:44,510 --> 01:36:42,239 um that we've been reminded you know 2640 01:36:46,790 --> 01:36:44,520 you've been given you've been given some 2641 01:36:48,470 --> 01:36:46,800 rope as a species and you've gone down 2642 01:36:51,290 --> 01:36:48,480 the road with it this this is where you 2643 01:36:52,669 --> 01:36:51,300 are now this is where you came from and 2644 01:36:54,649 --> 01:36:52,679 you could now when you've got those 2645 01:36:56,930 --> 01:36:54,659 cards on the table as Karen brilliantly 2646 01:36:58,490 --> 01:36:56,940 said years ago making form decisions 2647 01:37:01,250 --> 01:36:58,500 about where you want to go in the future 2648 01:37:03,470 --> 01:37:01,260 and if a part of that is developing our 2649 01:37:05,990 --> 01:37:03,480 Consciousness I believe that the crop 2650 01:37:07,669 --> 01:37:06,000 circles may be a blueprint and that in 2651 01:37:09,770 --> 01:37:07,679 years to come 2652 01:37:11,870 --> 01:37:09,780 um you know people might be studying 2653 01:37:13,610 --> 01:37:11,880 them in universities and pulling even 2654 01:37:15,229 --> 01:37:13,620 more things out of them that we've 2655 01:37:17,510 --> 01:37:15,239 because we've we've had limited 2656 01:37:20,270 --> 01:37:17,520 resources and we've we've suffered 2657 01:37:22,010 --> 01:37:20,280 painfully over the years to just try and 2658 01:37:24,290 --> 01:37:22,020 get a little bit of an understanding and 2659 01:37:26,330 --> 01:37:24,300 and and you're very aware when you've 2660 01:37:29,030 --> 01:37:26,340 done that that there's a whole wealth of 2661 01:37:30,770 --> 01:37:29,040 stuff still to be unpicked from these 2662 01:37:32,629 --> 01:37:30,780 formations that we just haven't come 2663 01:37:34,910 --> 01:37:32,639 across yet so 2664 01:37:37,490 --> 01:37:34,920 so I think that when when we do finally 2665 01:37:40,010 --> 01:37:37,500 accept as we are beginning to slowly now 2666 01:37:41,689 --> 01:37:40,020 that there are things flying around in 2667 01:37:44,270 --> 01:37:41,699 the sky and that there are you know 2668 01:37:46,310 --> 01:37:44,280 things we can't explain that the crop 2669 01:37:48,350 --> 01:37:46,320 circles in the uaps and maybe lots of 2670 01:37:51,050 --> 01:37:48,360 other Mysteries as well that have like 2671 01:37:52,669 --> 01:37:51,060 Jeffrey was published about in 2672 01:37:55,189 --> 01:37:52,679 his wonderful books you know where we'll 2673 01:37:57,590 --> 01:37:55,199 begin to unpick these mysteries of 2674 01:38:00,110 --> 01:37:57,600 of um of what it is to be human and and 2675 01:38:01,550 --> 01:38:00,120 the crop circles will probably be some 2676 01:38:03,410 --> 01:38:01,560 kind of syllabus for us to maybe 2677 01:38:05,450 --> 01:38:03,420 understand some of that stuff even more 2678 01:38:07,669 --> 01:38:05,460 that's what I think 2679 01:38:09,530 --> 01:38:07,679 well how can people find you both uh 2680 01:38:11,450 --> 01:38:09,540 online social media how could they get 2681 01:38:15,169 --> 01:38:11,460 in touch and find your work 2682 01:38:15,179 --> 01:38:18,410 our website which is 2683 01:38:25,790 --> 01:38:22,910 Brewery temples dot Co dot UK 2684 01:38:28,070 --> 01:38:25,800 um I don't do a lot of social media 2685 01:38:29,510 --> 01:38:28,080 um we have an Instagram page 2686 01:38:31,250 --> 01:38:29,520 um where you can you can look up 2687 01:38:34,430 --> 01:38:31,260 temporary temples you'll find us where 2688 01:38:36,530 --> 01:38:34,440 we put up pictures of the crop circles 2689 01:38:38,390 --> 01:38:36,540 um I do a little bit on Twitter that's 2690 01:38:40,610 --> 01:38:38,400 where I know you from Andy 2691 01:38:43,129 --> 01:38:40,620 um um but not too much else I actually 2692 01:38:45,050 --> 01:38:43,139 find it a real distraction sometimes but 2693 01:38:47,149 --> 01:38:45,060 the website is the best it's the 2694 01:38:49,729 --> 01:38:47,159 website's completely free there is a 2695 01:38:52,129 --> 01:38:49,739 image Library there that starts in 1994 2696 01:38:54,110 --> 01:38:52,139 goes right through to the present day 2697 01:38:56,810 --> 01:38:54,120 you can look at hundreds and hundreds of 2698 01:38:59,870 --> 01:38:56,820 crop circles and have a have a great 2699 01:39:01,970 --> 01:38:59,880 time doing that um and um and read some 2700 01:39:03,290 --> 01:39:01,980 of the stuff that I've been writing um 2701 01:39:07,250 --> 01:39:03,300 about some of the circles that's been 2702 01:39:11,209 --> 01:39:09,890 daddy oh I don't have a website I just 2703 01:39:12,709 --> 01:39:11,219 do it through social media through 2704 01:39:14,870 --> 01:39:12,719 Facebook there's a private group called 2705 01:39:16,430 --> 01:39:14,880 Against the Grain on Facebook anybody 2706 01:39:17,930 --> 01:39:16,440 can come and join 2707 01:39:20,390 --> 01:39:17,940 um I keep it sort of a closed group and 2708 01:39:21,890 --> 01:39:20,400 accept people because that's I'm not a 2709 01:39:23,750 --> 01:39:21,900 great big one for going on social media 2710 01:39:25,550 --> 01:39:23,760 too much as well and and rather I don't 2711 01:39:27,169 --> 01:39:25,560 want to spend my time just answering the 2712 01:39:28,310 --> 01:39:27,179 same questions but or being attacked and 2713 01:39:30,590 --> 01:39:28,320 stuff as we've all been over the years 2714 01:39:32,750 --> 01:39:30,600 so I kind of keep it so that we can but 2715 01:39:35,209 --> 01:39:32,760 I really love people to come onto the 2716 01:39:37,910 --> 01:39:35,219 group and make disc and open up healthy 2717 01:39:39,410 --> 01:39:37,920 discussions of All Views I'm not I'm not 2718 01:39:41,030 --> 01:39:39,420 biased and say hey you've got to be a 2719 01:39:42,950 --> 01:39:41,040 believer you know but it's got to be 2720 01:39:44,629 --> 01:39:42,960 respectful and so on and so forth and 2721 01:39:46,129 --> 01:39:44,639 I've got a YouTube channel same name 2722 01:39:47,689 --> 01:39:46,139 Against the Grain 2723 01:39:49,370 --> 01:39:47,699 um and that's videos and bits and pieces 2724 01:39:51,290 --> 01:39:49,380 we've published over the years 2725 01:39:52,910 --> 01:39:51,300 and there was a crop circle Reporter 2726 01:39:54,649 --> 01:39:52,920 website that I used to run with Michael 2727 01:39:56,570 --> 01:39:54,659 Glickman that's got a bunch of videos on 2728 01:39:59,450 --> 01:39:56,580 from back in the
