A third of the British population claim they’ve spotted a UFO – with 58 percent of these even reporting their sighting to the police.
A study of 2,000 adults found 37 percent believe they’ve witnessed something ‘out of the ordinary’, although 35 percent put it down to an optical illusion.
While 45 percent admit they had thought UFOs and aliens existed for as long as they can remember, 23 percent describe themselves as ‘true believers’ of extra-terrestrial life.
