I believe its an external phenomenon because small iron spheres are found on the surface soil. If it was internal how would they get there?

No but seriously, I've always thought this isn't an externally caused phenomenon, but an internally caused one

After this 1993 discovery, regular soil sampling was instituted at most crop circles sampled by the BLT Team. Subsequently, tiny 10-40 micron diameter spheres (and/or partially ablated particles) of unusually pure iron have been regularly found in soils from crop circle sites. Sometimes clusters of these very small, perfectly spherical, magnetic particles are found; sometimes larger spheres (40-50 microns in diameter), which are strongly magnetic, are discovered adhering to bits of soil covered, or inter-mixed, with a partially-melted glaze of the same material.

The thick, continuous, bluish line represents the theoretical value of the node length across the circle, if it were caused by a ball of light at a height of 4 meters and 10 centimeters. (This height corresponded to the estimate of the eyewitness). Just like the three crop circles analyzed by Levengood and Talbott, the theoretical values for the node length (blue line) correspond perfectly to the measurements (yellow bars).
Melt some iron filings into droplets on-site and sprinkle them around the flattened area to leave "meteorite particles" and magnetized stalks.

After the study of many different plants found in crop circle formations, several anomalous factors become present. The most noticeable change to the plants are the expansion and elongation of the plants stem nodes, as well as the visible explosion cavities that are literal holes blown out on the nodes of the plants. The expansions and expulsion cavities form when the plants are heated with an energy that causes the plants inside water to turn into steam which then blows out the plants node causing the hole. These effects have been discovered to be duplicatable in labs by microwaving them.
The all important findings from BLT
Both the man made crop circle and the normal lodging following heavy rain and wind BOTH were
found to be SIGNIFICANT AND HAD RECEIVED SIGNIFICANT HIGH LEVELS OF TRANSIENT
ENERGY. (Read official Report from William Levengood at BLT below)

The problem is BLT have a somewhat dubious reputation , here's a piece by CC guru Colin Andrews who shows BLT "research" is nothing of the sort.

What are the qualifications of Mr. Andrews? What scientific degrees does he hold?

scientific techniques to validate their preconceived
ideas: something known as “researcher bias".

Don't know , none I assume.
Colin Andrews conducted a double blind test of BLT analysis which is provided to them by William Levengood , the two Circles one of which was natural in origin the other created by Andrews were visited by BLT's own sampling team , they took their samples which later came back as having anomalous properties.
This man does have a Ph. D and believes in crop circles

Crop Circles have varying explanations but none of those explanations include Extra Terrestrials , Crop Art which most people think of as Crop Circles are 100 % man made.

Isn't that just a classic ad hominem attack and thus a logical fallacy - attacking the messenger and ignoring the message?

No , it's stating a fact , Colin Andrews conducted the test and they failed it .
I'm not ignoring the message the message is clear , some people will believe what they want to believe regardless.
As for logical fallacy .... Seriously ?
William Levengood is a known quantity , search and ye shall find.

He didn't make a mistake once he created results to fit his belief , he also claimed to be a doctor but it was discovered that wasn't true either.
A lot of what's claimed by crop circle followers today stems from claims made by William Levengood , I stand by my assertions that crop circles like the one you posted above are man made.

Do you have any proof that crop circle was man-made? Don't you find it interesting it appeared about three weeks before 9/11?

What's a more likely and logical scenario-
- It was created on the ground by humans that miscalculated the geometry of the circle and ran out of room and just went ahead and made them smaller to fit in?
- Or it was created from a view above by an intelligent alien species that *OOPS* made a couple of mistakes?
No matter your skewed way of thinking, the imperfections are a perfect example of human error.
