FACTS
tiny

In 1991 two landscape painters from Hampshire, David Chorley and Douglas Bower, claimed they started the whole crop circle hoax craze hoax in 1978, after drinking in a pub.

Ninety percent - and in some years, 98% - of the circles in the UK appear along the aquifer line (a layer of rock able to hold water), which runs from Dorset to Norfolk

One of the earliest reports was in Lyon in 815AD, and a late 16th Century woodcut depicts the devil mowing a field into patterns.

John Lundberg

He is a 'faker' but, if the arguments about him being instructed subconsciously by aliens to do it are right, then he's one of the world's most important portals. It depends what viewpoint you believe.

John answered some of your questions during a webchat session.

The webchat is now closed but you can still join in our Crop Circle discussion.
