It is sometimes said that "extraordinary claims and theories require extraordinary evidence". (What's meant by "extraordinary evidence" is a great deal of evidence, and what's meant by "extraordinary claims" is claims that are strange or out-of-the-ordinary. So in other words, the claim is that “very strange or out-of-the-ordinary claims or theories require a great deal of evidence before we believe them”.)
