I want to marry this man. He is 20% cooler than the average man, and I would love and tolerate the poo out of him! |

That was awesome! And no pony2 in the seesaw wouldn't have broken it's legs. Imagine it like being in a roller coaster that goes from 0 to 60 in about a half a second.. the back of the coaster supports your body and you gain momentum over time rather than in the course of .0001 seconds, just like the seesaw underneath her would. However pony one definitely would have broken something. Sudden deceleration is much harder on the body because it happens much quicker and your body take all the force.
I'm not a physics expert either, so sorry if that sounded a little jumbled. |

Only problem I had was the butterflies. If your pony had a relatively small area underneath it, you would have a much lower mass proportional in size to the area under a real horse.

I'm no physics expert but something I think should be factored in too...
The seesaw one... to get a height that was achieved, the initial falling pony would practically be falling onto a flat surface from a great height and the ground impact would have broken its legs... but conversely, the sudden acceleration of pony2 would have shattered its legs assuming it was standing at that time- or the immediate acceleration would have compressed its body (G-force?) - into a splat
Correct me if I'm wrong? |

Also on the third clip; the sudden deceleration would have produced so many G's that the pony wouldn't survive, or at the very least caused severe damage.
@Gerry1of1 that's exhaust from the jet engine refracting the light. But nice try. |

he forgot to mention at such a swift deceleration that fluttershy would essentially in non technical terms "splat" similar to that of which a person would hitting pavement |

Yay, physics!
I'm not convinced by his argument for the butterflies. I don't think their mass should be the limiting factor, time should be. The butterflies will each exert a tiny force on the pony. Together the total force will be not so tiny, but still tiny. F = m dv/dt. This means that the force the butterflies exert will be equal to the mass of the pony times the rate of change of the velocity of the pony. If the force is tiny then the time taken for the change in velocity (ie the time taken to decelerate the pony from terminal velocity to 0) must be large. The only error in the cartoon is that the time taken is far too small. Giving the butterflies extreme mass doesn't do anything if the rate of change of the ponies velocity is the same.
@ruthless What uni you at? |

so full of win, i cant stand it. one of the few reasons i wish i had stayed in physics instead of jumping over to biology all those years ago. |

as a professional presentation designer, I have to comment that one should never use a bullet point as a place to put EVERYTHING you intend to say. Put a few words as a key phrase for the bullet and then say what that phrase means. So, A+ for creativity but C for abuse of slideware. |
