Hi Steve
You're probably right but what stood out for me was 1) it was reported by big main-stream media (respected by the masses, even though we know different!) and 2) a Policeman (supposedly a man of "substance", although, again, we know better) was the one reporting it. So, for many conservative "sheeple" a policeman reporting a UFO sighting in a conservative, respected UK newspaper was worthy of posting above for those very reasons! I do realise that the majority of the readers here need no convincing of UFO's existence nor do they believe everything that they would read printed by controlled big main-stream media. Cheers Barron. |

Hi Barron,
The aledged police officer didn't report his experience to the newspaper. Apparently he went home and got in contact with some paranormal experts and told them he had seen a UFO which actually he didn't, he saw three tall blonde haired 'people' stood in a corn field. It must have been the paranormal experts who got in touch with the newspaper and the journalist got in touch with a crop circle expert. So here's the thing. The crop circle expert didn't confirm the existence of the crop circle - that was his speciality - and the policeman who was off duty didn't get in contact with the police force, prefering to get in touch with a paranormal expert. Why a paranormal expert? Where's the evidence of the crop circle? Surely there must have been some immediate investigation and at least photos of the crop circle where he said all this took place. No names were mentioned except the experts, even though telephone calls were made to the local police station, so the name of the bobby must have been known, even by the journalist. I think the article was a fluff piece just to fill a void - after all it was in the 'wierd' section of the internet newspaper. Best regards, Steve Quote:

I've been near and in that field numerous times. From the road you can see people standing on top of the hill and when they step a little further they suddenly seem to vanish because they are behind the sloping of the hill. So, i'm not convinced at all.

Snap, i've passed through on trips down south, you can in twilight see strange things that in daylight look normal.
I've seen this story somewhere else recently, and they had it in the debunk section as the investigators would not divulge anyting specific about the witness, its almost as if they told it to the paper to get some facetime and get interest in thier "non profit" group, the existence of the "policeman" was also called into question. Sidbury is an intersting area, its a hotbed of activity, but this one particular story doesn't ring true for me either. |

im a bit skeptical about crop circles,theres too much scope for man made hoaxes there,not saying they are all hoaxes., but a lot may well be.
and i dont tend to put too much emphasis on the fact that a police officer apparantly reported the incident,just because someone has a"title" or letters to there name makes them a more credible witness,people can be credible without. its like a kind of stereotyping. however, having been close enough to a ufo craft to feel a slight wind ,possibly created from the craft itself,,it could have something to do with it? probably more to do with the energy field its propulsion sytem uses,maybe some highly advanced electromagnetism/magnetic fusion.like the effect static electricity has.just some thoughts. |
