Appeal to Misleading Authority (w/ Appeal to Celebrity & Appeal to Tradition) | The air rods are "Like crop circles, leading even skeptics to believe in them." | ||
Appeal to Consequences | If the air rods are alive, they would be the first living thing of it's kind to be visible on film but not to the human eye. If not, then scientists can still learn something from this unnatural phenomenon | ||
Appeal to Consequences | Air rods could be another phase of matter that would be even more worth discovering | ||
Appeal to Ignorance | Because no one can find the bodies of Air Rods, they must be made of some different form of matter aside from the conventional 4 | ||
Emotional Appeal | We should look into studying air rods because they're exciting and deserve it. | ||
Hasty Generalization(?) Or Slippery Slope(?) | Because "all" attempts at recreating the air rods via birds and debris in the air failed, this proves that air rods had to be real | ||
Unknown (At least to me) | How can the air rods be fake/a hoax? How would you explain all the air rods in movies and home videos? How can you say that someone created those and ran around with them in the background? If it was a hoax, it would have been caught years ago | ||
Slippery Slope | Because so many hoaxes have shown up involving air rods, skeptics are targeting them because they're the weakest points. | ||
Unrepresentative Sample | There were thousands of sightings of sky rods in old tv shows, movies, films of sporting events and more, ranging into the tens of thousands. | ||
Hasty Generalization | Based on the ways that the air rods moved, they couldn't possibly be splotches on film and are, in fact, 3D creatures | ||
Bandwagon | Everyone is interested in air rods and have been sending tons and tons of photographic evidence of them, though real researches know the difference between amateur shots and the real thing |
