1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000 The Croppies Episode V 2 00:00:08,999 --> 00:00:12,999 What happened so far... 3 00:00:12,002 --> 00:00:17,002 What the hell was that? Where did it go? 4 00:00:17,003 --> 00:00:21,003 I didn't recognize any signal loss. And you? 5 00:00:21,004 --> 00:00:31,004 Monique is Dutch. She has a crop circle center in the Netherlands. 6 00:02:10,006 --> 00:02:16,006 What do you say about grass and mud on the airscrew Sebastian? "Ignore it." 7 00:02:16,007 --> 00:02:25,007 Think I cut down quiet a bit grass yesterday. It's resiny. 8 00:02:25,008 --> 00:02:38,008 Resin results in imbalance. Let's have a look at it. Yeah, a bit.. 9 00:02:38,008 --> 00:02:53,008 Monique found a new crop circle but the farmer seemed to be encouraged to put his hands on it. We will have a look at it though. 10 00:02:53,008 --> 00:03:04,008 I can't tell you though were the exact location is yet but you can head for Avebury and I'll tell you more on the way. 11 00:03:04,009 --> 00:03:25,009 I have an option in case it's raining here. I picked that up from work. It has a perfect shape for this purpose. Even if it looks a bit like Darth Vader. 12 00:03:25,012 --> 00:03:32,012 "It looks like a bobby. You know? These English policeman." Yeah, you are right. 13 00:03:32,013 --> 00:03:40,013 Well, let's hope it's not raining. 14 00:03:40,014 --> 00:03:45,014 We are ready, let's go. 15 00:03:45,014 --> 00:03:50,014 Can you take the Octocopter? "Sure." 16 00:04:23,016 --> 00:04:28,016 Balls of light 17 00:04:36,016 --> 00:04:42,016 Is this thing on yet? "Yeah." 18 00:04:42,016 --> 00:04:55,016 Now where is uhm... "Top right, the red button." No, I mean the zoom. 19 00:05:03,019 --> 00:05:08,019 Frank:"Hello Matze. You are on the road I guess." Yeah, we are five minutes away from Avebury. 20 00:06:13,019 --> 00:06:26,019 The camera crew is driving with her to the field where the crop circle is. There is no GPS data. She only knows it by the view from above. The other team doesn't know either. 21 00:06:26,021 --> 00:06:37,021 We are waiting in front of the Red Lion. A well known pub for croppies. Let's see if they show up so we can follow them. 22 00:06:39,021 --> 00:06:51,021 Frank:"Robert, the other team is at the Red Lion now. Can you ask Monique if we are coming through Avebury?" 23 00:06:58,023 --> 00:07:11,023 Allington, okay. See you soon. Hold on a second, there are two towns called Allington in the area. 24 00:07:11,024 --> 00:07:15,024 I must be around 10km away from the airfield. 25 00:07:15,024 --> 00:07:19,024 Allright. See ya later! 26 00:07:19,026 --> 00:07:31,026 Frank:"We know which Allington it is. The one near Horton. We are now in Horton." We are already in Alington 27 00:09:34,027 --> 00:09:44,027 Well that one over there is new. She discovered it. It's the only thing that emerged tonight but the farmer erased it already. 28 00:09:44,028 --> 00:09:55,028 It didn't look like this? Frank:" No, the farmer destroyed it." Well, now he won't get a 2 pound entry fee. 29 00:09:55,028 --> 00:10:00,028 Frank:"This is exactly what you can't plan." 30 00:11:25,028 --> 00:11:37,028 Mario:"The green between here and the field is moist. This will cause signal loss." Robert:" Can we put the transmiter on top of the car?" 31 00:11:37,029 --> 00:11:41,029 Mario:" Yeah, that will work." 32 00:11:44,032 --> 00:11:55,032 Robert:"Can we still have the monitor here on the ground so Monique can have a look at it?" Mario:" Yeah, of course." 33 00:11:55,033 --> 00:11:59,033 Robert:" Allright, shall we?" Mario:" Yeah, let's go." 34 00:13:05,033 --> 00:13:10,033 Robert:" Can you go lower?" Mario:" No, sorry." 35 00:13:32,033 --> 00:13:37,033 Good flight. Think we made some nice pictures. 36 00:13:46,034 --> 00:13:50,034 Frank:"You know this circle already right?" Yeah, I like that one. 37 00:13:50,037 --> 00:13:55,037 Frank:"Look at this. Another binary messege." 38 00:20:42,038 --> 00:20:51,038 Robert:" Hey guys. That was a great interview. Balls of light over crop circles. I got an entire DVD about it." 39 00:20:51,038 --> 00:21:00,038 Robert:"That Kootje guy gave me a nice inspiration what I am going to do next in a crop circle." What is it? 40 00:21:00,038 --> 00:21:04,038 Robert:"You'll see..." 41 00:21:18,039 --> 00:21:26,039 Frank:" How long you been doing this?" UFO research? I think Wolfgang is doing it for about 20 years. 42 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:38,040 Frank:"What was your original motivation?" For me? Curiosity. Frank:" And now? Still curiosity or conviction? 43 00:21:38,041 --> 00:21:43,041 Curiosity and conviction. Robert:" How about having a beer for now?" 44 00:21:46,044 --> 00:21:54,044 Cheers! For crop circles and UFO's above them! 45 00:22:00,045 --> 00:22:15,045 Robert:" I mean it would definitely be a good thing to have a look at it and take some pictures. My guess is we will hear some nice stories but the chance to film something special is really low." 46 00:22:15,046 --> 00:22:22,046 "What kind of equipment do you use by the way?" 47 00:22:22,047 --> 00:22:34,047 We got a pretty good low-light amplifier. It even works by starlight only. We also have a thermalgraphic camera. It allows us to see people in the field for example. 48 00:22:34,048 --> 00:22:41,048 Robert:"Oh, that's nice." We can detect body heat with it. Basicly the same stuff police and firemen use 49 00:22:41,048 --> 00:22:57,048 Robert:" How good is it? Can you detect something let's say 100 metres away?" It depends on the difference in temperature. When it's cold outside you can see better. When it's warm not so good. 50 00:22:57,048 --> 00:23:14,048 Robert:" And you got your mobile detection device right?" Yeah, it's a plattform with 3 cameras. It also has an UFO sensor that detects changes in gravity and the magnetic field. 51 00:23:14,049 --> 00:23:25,049 Of course there are people who believe that every light they see is an UFO. Well if it flashes like a plane, flies like a plane and sounds like a plane - it is a plane! 52 00:23:25,050 --> 00:23:38,050 Well there are even people who claim that it might be an UFO that disguises as a plane. Of course that's possible but on that base you can claim anything. 53 00:23:38,053 --> 00:23:51,053 We need a hill from where we can have a nice overview of the surrounding area. "Oh, there are plenty of those." Best thing would be one where we can hide a bit. 54 00:23:55,054 --> 00:23:59,054 Frank:"Do you also got the 'Crop Circle Connector' app?" Nope... 55 00:23:59,055 --> 00:24:05,055 Frank:" It shows, 'Breaking news!New crop circle found!' immediately. 56 00:24:05,056 --> 00:24:16,056 I can imagine the people lay down in the fields and feel the great energy... "I am totally overwhelmed.." 57 00:24:16,057 --> 00:24:26,057 Frank:" Well, it is possible that they feel something when they lay down but it doesn't have to do anything with the crop circle if it's manmade." 58 00:24:26,057 --> 00:24:36,057 That's why these statements are not objective for me. Of course they can imagine that they feel something. 59 00:24:36,057 --> 00:24:43,057 We don't see ourselves as crop circle researchers we just go in there like any other tourist. 60 00:24:47,058 --> 00:24:52,058 Frank:" Why don't anybody write about it in their dissertation? That would be nice." Robert:" About what? The sociological..." 61 00:24:52,059 --> 00:24:57,059 Frank:"About the crop circle phenomenon. Yeah, sure. Why not? About the sociological aspect." 62 00:24:57,060 --> 00:25:05,060 Gerhard:"It's just like the UFO research. Due to the lack of objective evidence you have to concentrate on the subject - in this case man." 63 00:25:05,063 --> 00:25:13,063 There are a lot of interesting scientific statements without a foundation. 64 00:25:13,064 --> 00:25:27,064 It really is that way. That's the only thing they can examine. They can't examine the object. That's why they negate everything and concentrate on the subject. And of course nothing gets out of that. 65 00:25:27,065 --> 00:25:40,065 Robert:"Well, imagine you are standing there with your camera a flying saucer appears and lands in the field. Four beings get out in their silver jumpsuits. 66 00:25:40,066 --> 00:25:48,066 They take soil samples and fly away again. Maybe I even hold a microphone and ask where they came from. They say:" Zeta Reticuli but that's none of your business." 67 00:25:48,067 --> 00:26:00,067 Then we got everything on tape. We have eight witnesses - and then? Hey, look at them! Eight crop circle freaks! 68 00:26:00,067 --> 00:26:08,067 They must be freaks, otherwise they wouldn't visit the crop circles. So, they are not unbiased? Come on you can't take them seriously! 69 00:26:18,067 --> 00:26:23,067 Wanna party? Come on let's party until five in the morning! 70 00:26:35,068 --> 00:26:50,068 Frank:"Morning!" Mario:" Hey, we had a wonderful night! About 20 metres out of the window the one party in town took place." 71 00:26:50,069 --> 00:27:02,069 Frank:" And the air conditioner?" Mario:" Broken... that's why we had to open the window... okay we just wanted to listen to the music." 72 00:27:02,070 --> 00:27:13,070 The batteries were charging over night and that caused additional heat. But hey, at 5.30 it suddenly got quiet. 73 00:27:13,073 --> 00:27:20,073 We will get another room. We are ready, let's go. 74 00:27:40,074 --> 00:27:55,074 Mario:"We have to go very high this time. We can try that." Sebastian:" Yeah, if it's not to stormy above this is the best opportunity." 75 00:28:56,075 --> 00:29:00,075 Can you see this? 76 00:29:20,076 --> 00:29:25,076 To be continued...
