Are pegasus wings really fragile? Do unicorn spells really fail catastrophically? And just how explosive is chocolate milk, anyways? Join Applejack, Rainbow Dash and the rest of the MLP crew as they not only tell the myths, but put them to the test!
Thanks Pustulioooooo for his WONDERFUL Coverart!
Lol, Pinkie!
Well seing no one made a sugestipon yet, (FIRST! cause that's all that matters right?) what about on on earth ponies? they are thought to plain and low leveled due to their lack of a horn and wings... but are they really just plain ponies, or do they have secrets?
Very good conversion of the MythBusters show into the world of MLP: FiM. It's a little odd to have the camera operator/stage crew become involved in the show, but I guess that's just something that happens when the cast size goes from two to six (or nine). I look foward to more! 
pro skills. this is about the best thing ever. i decided to give it 5 stars as soon as i read "between them, they have over 30 seconds of special effects experience." 
and the cutie mark crusaders mythbuckers yay sounds like the other best thing ever. YOU ARE AWESOME!! 
Ww are the Mythbuckers! Rainbow Dash-
“Am I missing some feathers?”
And Applejack-
“Oh Luna not the grain silo-”
Together, they have over thirty seconds of special effects experience!
Joining them! Sweetie Belle-
"I think we overdid the explosion . . . "
Applebloom-
"We were supposed to do what now?"
And Scootaloo
"Did somepony say boom!!?"
We don't just tell the myths: We put them to the test!
MYTHBUCKERS!
There were two thoughts that went through my mind when i read Pinkie has high explosives.
1: "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! RUN FOR THE FUCKING HILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE'S GOING TO KILL US ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
2: That...is one of the most awesome things I've ever read. Pinkie would be the type of pony to keep high explosives around for god knows what reason.
If this fanfiction is going to be poking fun at the fanon.....
Actually, I have nothing that pokes fun at the fanon. Maybe....
Aha! Is it possible to alter a poison joke flower to play a specific joke on a pony?
Also, is said flower related to Discord? I have a sneaking suspicion about those flowers and Discord may be the key.
Lastly, Does cutie mark failure syndrome exist? (The psychological effect on ponies that occurs when they cannot fufill their lifelong passion that is related to their cutie mark)
That is all I can come up with.
Or iiisss iiiit?
Yes, it's finally here. I've enjoyed so much on Equestria Daily now I can read it here.
Also: some ideas
1) probably got this a lot, but WINGBONER'S and unicorn horns. Are Pegasus wings good indication that they got a "heart on" for some pony special. And are unicorn's horns really that sensitive to touch and stimulants. A pony that can be involve to help could be Berry Punch.
2) Pinkie's unlimited energy, is it the sweets that she eats or is it something else? (maybe coffee)
3) The moon, is it really made of cheese?
4) Is it at all possible to sneak up and surprise princess Celestia?
5) Flutterhy, timid Pegasus or actually a stone heart killer? We've all seen how she took care of that dragon, cockatrice and bear.
6) Who is the most favorite pony?
this is from the e-mail I sent you after it was posted on EQD. and some others I just thought of that you can use it you want.
7) Celstia's hair, is it the shampoo or conditioner that makes it flow like that.
8) bipedal motion, can a pony maintain balance and upwright for an extended period of time.
9) Jems, are they realy that tasty and healthy?
10) The myth behind Macingtosh nickname "Big Mac"?
Ah. Nearly forgot about this story. Read it originally and loved it on EqD. Now that it's here I'm hoping the additional exposure will help you continue it?
I'm still uncertain of RD and AJ being the best 2 to represent the Mythbuckers, character wise, but that's really my only pet peeve. Spike and Derpy would have been my team of choice.
She was really hoping it would work.
This is an excellent story and I'll definitely be watching. And maybe you could address the issue of whether or not ponies are made of dark matter, since the whole catapult thing and all...
of course a failed spell will disrupt the sapcetime continuum! Especially if it's a teleportation spell Unicorns take their magic from fractal energy, which is part of spacetime, and teleportation is a through a medium called "rift space" which is a physical part of the universe.
I'm sure this is going to sound like complete blasphemy, but I don't really care for the "And hi to all you people reading this!" Pinkie 4th wall breaking lines. They've grown rather tiresome.
But that's not the point - the point is, this is a fun concept that combines two things I like in an amusing way, and you should continue bucking myths! For future ones, I'd suggest something with Earth ponies. Are they just the vanilla/"normal" pony, or do they have any specific affinity for growing plants or for physical endurance that has sometimes been alluded to? Also, I admit that I would probably chuckle if you did something about wingboners too
. Heh.
Got another one: Is it true that there is a circle of trees in the everfree forest with a blue opal with a yellow flash in the middle, connecting ponyville among others to a strange, creepy place, called "Halloween Town"? Based on this fic by SaddlesoapOpera:click here
AHA
Now THERE'S exactly the kind of myths I'm looking for! An actual myth! "Could a swarm of butterflies ACTUALLY support a pony, or even just a pegasus?"
A lot of the suggestions I've gotten are more an ask tumblr should get =\ Not a lot of testable 'myths'
I think I may use that in the future =D
Myth: It is Possible to Buck an Apple Tree Clear out of the Ground/Snap it in half
Myth: Tom the rock is in fact a Giant Diamond (or Geode) , Just Not Cracked open
Myth: Diamond Dogs are being held Captive by a giant dragon who'll roast them all alive if they don't feed it (Hence the whole Rarity thing)
Myth: it is Possible to Spontaneously turn into an Alicorn And/or a Male Version of yourself (External forces notwithstanding)
Myth: Rainbow Dash is Not Best Pony.
Myth: all the Statues in the Canterlot Statue Garden are, in fact, Ponies imprisoned in stone (or "Stonies" as I like to call them)
Myth: Discord can be freed by Arguing in front of his statue (i mean, thats a stupid Idea. He's been imprisoned for WELL OVER A THOUSAND years and no-one in ALL that time argued in front of him. BLUH? Fanon, Y U So Silly?)
Myth: The Brown Pony in Ponyville with the Spikey mane and the Hourglass cutiemark is in actuality, a Time Traveller
Myth: Big Macintosh is a Polymath
Myth: Princess Luna has an Unhealthy Obsession with Socks and/or Abucusses
Myth: Trixie is Great and Powerful
Myth: Theres a weird Hairless monkey running around calling itself Krastos the Gluemaker
Myth: Fluttershy is Not an utter Badass
Myth: A Sonicrainboom-ing Pegasus is Travelling at speeds in exess of Mach Ten
Thats all I can think of Currently. Hope that, even if none of these are used, they inspire you somehow.
Firstly, hi Pinkie! Here's a picture of your face! 
Secondly, three myths that I hope will prove useful:
1. Unicorn magic is semi-autonomous, capable of expressing itself without conscious effort on the part of the pony in question. These expressions can be forced with the proper stimulus.
2. Pinkie Sense. Twilight's going to suggest it eventually...
3. One or more of Pinkie's... unique abilities are, in actuality, genetic. Guest starring the Pie family.
Well.
The Sonic Rainboom has always been looked at as a myth
(even though RD has done 2 of them)
So perhaps the myth is he is the only Pegasus who can do a Sonic Rainboom.
And by using high powered explosives for thrust, they should see if they can make Fluttershy do a Sonic Rainboom!
Just imagine some nitroglycerin strapped to Fluttershy`s hooves with a magical barrier to protect her in an attempt to create a Sonic Rainboom.
High powered explosives can solve any problem
Interesting... I didn't think of Pinkie as an explosives expert. I'm having a little trouble visualizing it. 
Otherwise, great first episode. Applejack and Rainbow Dash make the best co-presenters, and Rarity's reaction on finding out precisely what she's gotten herself into made me smile. 
Putting Twilight into that much jeopardy felt a little uncharacteristic, though. And just when the CMCs are coming to make it all the more fun, the episode ends.
Still, I'll be coming back for more. What will they do next, indeed?
Suggestions? How about this one: Big Macintosh only gets his superstrength when he's really motivated for it (see Lesson Zero and Hearts and Hooves). Otherwise, he's only slightly stronger than Applejack.
Worth every second of waiting. I can only wonder how Fluttershy must feel about all the pyrotechnics and explosions the rest of the crew is recklessly setting off. I don't fault her for staying away, really.
...crap, I thought I'd be more ready with suggestion ideas.
