A father and son who have spent 15 years making crop circles under the cover of darkness have revealed the painstaking process involved in leaving their intricate designs across the countryside.

Terry, 46, and Jack, 20, from Salisbury, revealed secrets behind the mysterious patterns on condition of anonymity and do not wish to give their surnames.

...

Jack was only five when Terry began designing formations but did not actively participate until he was 11. He said the process was exciting but exhausting.

'I usually feel done by the time I've walked into the field, but once you get a couple of hours in you start to feel the adrenaline pumping,' he said.

Well, I guess no one will ever find out who they are. There must be thousands of fathers and sons living in Salisbury, whose names are Terry, age 46, and his son Jack, age 20.

15 years of smashing someone’s crop. Wonder the cost of the vandalism he has done?

Except of course nobody who makes them claims they’re made by aliens, so there are NO fakes because they’re not pretending anything. And there’s no group 3, they’re all very readily explained.

It’s good to believe in possibilities. But don’t be sucker. Aliens aren’t traveling gazillions of miles to graphitize our corn.

Anyone that ever believed that those were caused by extraterrestrials should have their voting rights denied.

Even if I'm voting for Trump???

Wow. They are beautiful. And that last one does look extraterrestrial.

They charged admission to see the crop circles. Might not be too far-fetched that the farmers invited them.

Ah. An inside job! :-)

They think it could be some kind of landmark, visual mapping system — so they can navigate. Coordinate. Makes sense doesn’t it?

Isn’t anyone who makes crop circles destroying private property as the smashed down crops may be impossible to harvest? I would imagine that any farmer this happened to would be pretty annoyed. For the same reason I always wonder if farmers hate hot air balloon riders who land in their fields.

Weren’t they a couple of barflys named Doug and Dave?
The formation they made for the ever gulllible news fools
were effing pathetic. Of course most of the telechimps
gobbled up their claims.

I wanted to see them make a complicated formation in the dark.
Just like now with the latest two frauds.

Economic losses farmers! Lawyer up and sic ‘em!

I hope nobody gets mad at me but I’m the one behind the contrails.

It was a hobby that got out of hand. Sorry.

Did anyone ever fail to get elected who underestimated the intelligence of the American public?

Well, just because someone have figured out how to make fake crop circles does not prove that they all are fake.

(The purpose of crop circles is to mess with people's heads, right? So I'm helping.)

You too. I'm sure that losing Trump supporters would be offset by Hillary supporters.

We really have to start having an intelligence requirement of the voting public.

What makes you think this so-called "father" and "son" aren't extraterrestrials?

I believe SOME crop circles were real, where an actual circular shaped craft from outer space landed...

(I really do)

But the ones the are some weird design or message are ALL fakes. Why would someone fly all this way to trample some vegatbales to leave a message? Why not knock on someone’s door and give them a note.
