Humans- Many people think that humans looking for a good laugh and some bragging rights have done all of the crop circles. In fact, numerous crop circle creators have admitted to their work. Two of the most famous crop circle makers, Doug Bower and Dave Chorley, say to have made their crop circles with simply planks of wood and rope.
Aliens and UFOs- Due to the crop circles' intricate designs and sometimes symbolic patterns, aliens and UFOs are another common belief. Some think that crop circles are made by alien spaceships hovering over the fields or aliens trying to send a message of some sort.
Winds- Some believe in the "Plasma Vortex Theory", which states that small currents of charged vortices (or gusts of charged wind) flatten the crops. The charged air then makes the dust particles appear to glow, which would explain the bright light that witnesses claim to see before a crop circle appears.
Other- Additional theories about the crop circles include helicopters and airplanes causing downdrafts which then make the crops bend, thus creating the crop circles. Another assumption is that the Earth's electromagnetic radiation forms the crop circles.
To me, humans seem like the most logical cause of the crop circles. On the other hand, the United Kingdom has the most crop circles in the world, and studies show that almost 80% are man-made. If this is true, then what is the cause of the other 20%? There are still a number of unexplained appearances that nobody has ever claimed to be responsible for.
