The guy that deciphered the message at the end of the video was found dead in a lake or something..

Crop circles are so dumb. It's obvious people screwing with other people.

This one is very interesting though, especially the supposed 'reply' to Karl Sagan's message sent out 27 years earlier and it's similarities but slight differences as well as it's complexity in terms of the DNA modifications and what it means. Also the complexity of the message in the 'disk', very intriguing stuff.

Do you think aliens came and made the crop circles?

I never understood why people would think that a high tech alien civilisation capable of bridging the vast gulfs between stars would choose to communicate with us via shapes in grass.

It's just a guy (or couple of guys) who clearly had too much time on their hands. If you look at the grass, it looks like someone knocked it over and stamped on it with a big 2x4 and ropes (the ropes held by 2 people to ensure consistency in the circular patterns).

I'd imagine if aliens were going to do crop circles, they'd have technology that could vaporize the grass into the pattern they needed, rather than just smush them down.

Aliens travel millions of miles to observe and visit us...and choose to communicate by making pretty designs in farmland.

TOTALLY PLAUSIBLE.
