Would an unprotected body be able to break the sound barrier? Im not any good at physics but I would imagine the G-force from that sort of acceleration would rip off limbs or something?

@ Turtle

In the real world, you wouldn't be able to breath at those speeds.

@ Death

That directed at me?

I figured something like that too.. dont pilots flying the superfast planes have to wear pressurized flight suits and face masks so they can breathe?

@ Turtle

Yes. They're called G suits.

Without them, they can black out when making sharp turns or dives.

@Bad: That's even worse! Those calculations were based on the shape of the cone she made, so I'm just going to call artistic license on that and say the animators drew what looked cool. 300ish I can buy as a top speed, but not on the ground within two seconds. The math on the wingpower thing was funky all around, so I'm not accepting any speeds derived from that.

What do you mean by "unprotected"? As in "not sitting inside a jet engine, instead having the wind in your face and all that"?

but its definitely no where near as awful as the Fantastic Four movies.

What's wrong with them? I'm actually curious.

This need to be confirmed.

Mach 5 prior to the Sonic Rainboom then she doubled velocity after Sonic Rainbooming.

Meaning at the least wearing a G-suit as Applelight has said its called to keep from passing out at that speed.

Maybe thats what the Flight suits the Wonder bolts wear are for... magically enchanted to do what a G-suit does.

Well, I imagine you'd only have a problem if you're trying to make a turn. Moving at Mach 1 in a straight line doesn't mean you're accelerating, which means no G-forces acting on you.

I'll stay at Mach One.

That's still effing impressive if you ask me.

Also, Rainbow was heading down for what, ten to fifteen seconds? I'm pretty sure at those speeds she'd have hit the ground way sooner.

I wonder if Twilight stalks comic books at the library....

She seems like the kind to be a superhero nerd. Applejack would be into funnies, Pinkie into mysteries....

Well, you know how their crazy physics is. Their sound barrier is an actual barrier you can actually bounce yourself off of.

She turns pretty sharply when she catches Rarity and the Wonderbolts... she should have blacked out there and lost control then tongue

Honestly, an "invasion" of that sort would be rather fun. Maybe we could even "counterattack" and pop into their chat for a while. Who knows, maybe we could earn some conversions. [lol]

Or, maybe we could convince them to enter a crossover arc with us. Pony Pokemon trainers! /completely silly idea

That does sound like fun.

You know that saying "If you have to ask, you don't want to know"?

Yeah.

@ Kyler

Which leads me to believe that that was the magical field that surrounds Equestria being broken.

@ Turtle

Indeed. Turning 90 degrees at Mach one makes massive g forces...enough to kill a human.

But...this is a toon verse. wink

I hope with all those physic analysis you come with something like Dark Matter Applejack.
