RainbowMau 292 October 14, 2014 Share October 14, 2014 If there was a Mythbusters special episode featuring MLP myths, which ones would they test? IMO: - If a horse lays back tied to a fully-loaded carriage into a hole, would it flip in the top? (As seen in "Applebuck Season") - If a conveyor belt at high speed loaded with cherries suddenly stops, would the cherries get shot? (As seen in "The Last Roundup") - Can a carriage crashing at high speed demolish an entire barn? (As seen in "The Apple Family Reunion") 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Singe 2,111 October 14, 2014 Share October 14, 2014 How about the Pegasus myth and flying? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeric 46,880 October 14, 2014 Share October 14, 2014 This would have to be a tongue in cheek or satirical episode, but it would be extremely fun to watch. I would like to see them test the 'Water Funnel' that has to be made in Hurricane Fluttershy. Try and determine the Pegasus power needed to actually create that sort of water spout. -_- Or How much force is needed to buck apples from a tree, and can it be done without damaging the tree. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caramba2654 602 October 14, 2014 Share October 14, 2014 - If a horse lays back tied to a fully-loaded carriage into a hole, would it flip in the top? (As seen in "Applebuck Season") No. The point of balance is very difficult to be reached and it relies on the horse being static. - If a conveyor belt at high speed loaded with cherries suddenly stops, would the cherries get shot? (As seen in "The Last Roundup") Yes, if it was going fast enough. It's the inertia principle. - Can a carriage crashing at high speed demolish an entire barn? (As seen in "The Apple Family Reunion") Yes, if it hit an important support pillar. ========================= If you want to test a myth on Mythbusters, your myth needs to have one thing: explosions. So we could test if a Sonic Rainboom is actually possible. 3 I won't be a complete brony until I get a Thunderlane plushie and go to a convention.

RainbowMau 292 October 14, 2014 Author Share October 14, 2014 No. The point of balance is very difficult to be reached and it relies on the horse being static. You're probably right, but Applejack wasn't static and still. Yes, if it was going fast enough. It's the inertia principle. But there's still the question: Would they get any elevation or just go forward? Yes, if it hit an important support pillar. We're talking about a carriage, not a car, nor a truck, a carriage! A carriage pulled by two horses and loaded with passengers, which makes the question if would it be powerful enough. Also the barn was hit in the center, if there were six pillars there would still be 4, the question is if they would remain up. ========================= If you want to test a myth on Mythbusters, your myth needs to have one thing: explosions. So we could test if a Sonic Rainboom is actually possible. Or at least demolish the barn with a truck loaded with explosives if the carriage itself doesn't do the job. At least those are my theories about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Singe 2,111 October 15, 2014 Share October 15, 2014 Applebucking. Calculate how much power is in a horse's bucking. Then build a rig to perform the same power and distributing to an Apple Tree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainboom Dash 1,056 October 15, 2014 Share October 15, 2014 I would love an MLP-themed Mythbusters episode! They've done great "themed" episodes in the past (superheros, Breaking Bad, etc) and an MLP one would be great now that they're both under the Discovery brand.

Its owned by Hasbro Discovery just owns more of the network then Hasbro now so they changed the name and some programming.

RainbowMau 292 October 16, 2014 Author Share October 16, 2014 Here's another one I forgot: Can a horse-stampede take down the leaves from the trees in autumn? (As seen in "Fall Weather Friends") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Crimson Cross 7,533 October 16, 2014 Share October 16, 2014 If it was myth busters conducting a special MLP based episode, you can bet your bottom dollar they'd be taking a look at that double rainboom. Though I don't think myth busters really apply to cartoons, It'd be interesting to see other phenomenon from cartoons other than MLP thrown in with it. Now with more added tea leaves!
