IIRC this was a study (survey?) done by a American company.

There are tons of UFO sighting in plenty of non-NA or EU countries such as Brazil and South Africa

Like every shit post about aliens lately. Shit got old like immediately. Wake me up when we have actual evidence. Not just abductive reasoning.

I'd like to add that for many countries like mine, a UFO sighting wouldn't even register as "unidentified" or having an outer space origin. The locals would attribute it to something religious instead.

Berrrrr. VWOOP! widdle widdle, shooom. Pew, pew, pew. Buh luh luh luh luh luh. So sayeth the lord. Amen.

And now we paint ourselves green and dance in his shiny circular beamy holy goodness.

You ain’t gotta give, but I’m taking donations. If your neighbor don’t drop a dollarydoo in the plate, don’t judge him too harshly.

I was wondering why the sightings were dominated by English speaking countries, this may be the reason. Thanks.
