Glasgow named as top spot in Scotland for UFO sightings

Glasgow has been named as Scotland’s top spot for UFO sightings.

A survey placed the city third in the UK, with one in four residents reporting close encounters.

Britain’s UFO capital is Norwich, where 31 per cent of locals reckon they’ve seen a spaceship.

A further 30 per cent said they have have sensed aliens or had an “inexplicable alien experience” near their house.

And 15 per cent said they even dream about being abducted by little green men.

BuzzBingo.com asked 2000 UK adults if they had seen a UFO or had an alien experience.

Researchers found on average that 18 per cent of Brits believe they have had a brush with an alternate species – either sensing aliens or seeing flying saucers.

And more than a fifth of people nationwide – 22 per cent – believe there is a government conspiracy to hide outer space activity from the public.

And 41 per cent said they would like to meet an alien.

Newcastle and Birmingham came joint second after Norwich for close encounters, with 26 per cent of people from both cities believing they have seen a UFO or sensed a presence.

Glasgow came third on 25 per cent followed by Bristol in fourth place on 24 per cent.
