Crop Circles originated from hoaxers. It's a known fact that the area with the most crop cirlces is the south east of England.
That is because too friends Doug Bower and David Chorley decided to pull a prank after a pint down thier local.
Every friday night they went out to local fields and farms and used planks of wood with a rope on either end and there foot on the stick (sorry i cant explain it very well) and they went out a few times a week to preform their "hobby" of fooling people.
But finally, their trickery came to an end when Doug's wife had been noticing the car's milage had been increaing more than she had been driving it, so she confrounted Doug. He had to tell her the truth for fear of ruining his marriage. After telling his wife he had to come out with the secret to the world and he did so in September 1991.

What are you? A criminal? It had better be a field that you have permission to do this within. Which is why I would prefer it to be your field. I live in Houston by the way.

Come on this is supposed to be like all the other circles that are made, in the dead of the night, done clandestinly with out getting caught. If we had permission it would give you an advantage, wouldn't it?
I live in Northern Indiana, pick a location in the middle and let me know.

At the beginning of August 2004 circlemakers John Lundberg, Rod Dickinson and Wil Russell were asked by National Geographic TV to create a demonstration formation in daylight opposite Silbury Hill in Wiltshire for a documentary on the crop circle phenomenon. We decided to create a 200ft formation incorporating a square spiral. Until now square spirals have not appeared out in the fields, probably because unlike a circular spiral - which is relatively easy to accomplish with the right tools - a square spiral is a complex geometric form and difficult to create accurately. At our suggestion National Geographic rigged up a 120ft crane at the side of the field and shot time-lapse footage of the formation being created. It took 3 of us a very sedate 5 hours to create, with lots of breaks in construction for filming.
