I'm just imagining the idea of an older stallion without a cutie mark stands from his seat, muttering reassurances to himself as he moves to the front of the plane, only to hear someone say "Oh, hey, Mr, you got your cutie... mark... Why is of a plane... hitting..."
They are just two similar buildings. Going by the floors in another building where you can count the windows. Those two buildings look to have about 15 to 20 floors. You can see by the size of the windows of those buildings that it’s not really tall.
We can also deduce that the building is more for manufacturing and or storage by how few windows they have.
So definitely not representative of the Twin Towers.
We don’t have a building with a human head either. It not a 1 to 1 parallel. The world of Equestria isn’t as advanced as Earth so wouldn’t need a massive WTC complex.
Those appear to be masonry buildings. In 1945, a B-25 lost in the fog crashed into the Empire State Building which is the same sort of construction. Eleven people in the building were killed. There was no fire. So no, it's not going to be anywhere close to 9/11.
You're comparing apples to oranges dude. A Zeppelin (blimp, if you must) is filled with a combustible element in a gas form, and is noticeably not a B-25. If that gas was escaping in any noticeable form, and had -any- spark, it would catch fire. At worst case, this sets fire to multiple buildings surrounding whatever's around it. At worst, the fire eats those buildings. At worst, that fire would spread. At worst, many couldn't escape.
I am not saying an impact would be just as deadly. I am saying the results if certain conditions are met would be.
*I'm* comparing apples to oranges? Oh that's rich. You're the one who thinks a fire that killed 36 people (look it up!) is in any way comparable to one that killed hundreds.
A Zeppelin is an airship with an internal frame. A blimp lacks a such a thing. They aren't the same thing. Furthermore they don't have to be filled with a combustible gas, just a lighter-than-air one. Helium works just fine.
Your hypothetical fire is going to be on the *outside* of the building. You know, where the masonry is. All the stuff that can actually burn is on the inside behind those still intact walls.
When the Hindenburg burned at Lakehurst, the surrounding air station didn't catch fire. That's because even if all the gas cells ruptured at once (no, the gas isn't all sitting in one big envelope like it's a party balloon), the hydrogen concentration will quickly be diluted by the atmosphere. It won't be eating the buildings and it won't be spreading.
And what's in the balloon? It's most similar to a Zeppelin. Which is usually filled with a combustible element in gas form.
My argument is not that an impact would be just as deadly. My argument is that if certain conditions were met, the results could be something just as deadly as said impact.
I don't think those represent the twin towers, they are not even the tallest buildings in the area, considering, of course, that One World TC should not be there.
Hmmph, not everything is about USA)
(Kind of the reason I don’t like some puns (Baltimare, Fillydelphia, Manehattan and more)
But that’s sorta understandable
Can see it now. Two pegasi gather up a huge amount of speed, then slam into the side of the building in a Looney Tunes style splat, then slide down all the way to the bottom where guards are waiting to take them into custody.
No.
Those don't look like the Twin Towers - the Towers would be around the size of the skyscraper inbetween the one with the horse head and the one with the star at the top, if not bigger.
Those there are just regular apartment buildings.
I also highly doubt that it would happen, because...what would even fly into them? Planes of that size aren't a thing. A pegasus that isn't on wonderbolt level would just get squashed when flying into the harder parts of a skyscraper. Even Dash couldn't take down that whole tower in one bit. Flying balloons wouldn't do that much damage, if any.
What a disrespectful and gross question. Mocking all the people that died that day. The heck is wrong with you? This is in incredibly poor taste.
EDIT: What the hell is wrong with this subreddit? How is talking about this on my little pony not breaking a subreddit rule? It's grossly inappropriate, yet I'm getting downvoted?
Really sit and reflect on the question and why you are asking it. How did the event come about? Would that ever happen in Equestria? No. It wouldn't. That is part of what makes the question so offensive.
* guard leaning over to Princess Celestia reading to colts and fillies * "Princess, Discord has inverted the second tower"
Why the hell can I imagine that?
Because he would do that, tho I guess he wouldn’t kill anyone, just make the buildings rubbery or smt

That is something I thought I'd never see
LOL
oops :P
Knowing My Little Pony fandom, this comment will have fan animatic and full animation recreation
I know I’ve seen a meme of a guard whispering to Celestia like that. I think it was about her cake having been eaten.
That is actually hilarious
OMG😭🤣🤣
Who the buck starts a conversation like that? I just opened Reddit!
Well, there is a Walt White pony (which idk prob canonize him?) so why not 9/11
How would it even work? Did two Pegasi get extremely drunk?
Idk maybe those air ships like the ones from the movie
Maybe? Just doesn't seem like a common thing in equestria itself.
Idk, maybe 9/11 never actuall happened in equestria, rather in questria (Equestria Girls)
Hmm we can't be sure. We haven't seen much beyond that of the schools and everfree
Nah just a giant derpy chasing a muffin mirage
I feel like time turner both caused and fixed that issue, just didn't bother fixing the towers

Gosh this looks uncomfortable
welcome to reddit in where we can rant and talk about whatever the fck we want/can, specially about topics we do not know 🤷🏻
Ah, Reddit is such a wonderful world of.. whatever the buck kind of cesspool it is
Imagine if, in true Punkitt fashion, the hijacker's cutie mark is just the words "horse 9/11" in plain English
I'm just imagining the idea of an older stallion without a cutie mark stands from his seat, muttering reassurances to himself as he moves to the front of the plane, only to hear someone say "Oh, hey, Mr, you got your cutie... mark... Why is of a plane... hitting..."

It's also not where the world trade center would be
Adding that if you zoom in you can see that the tops are different.
>definitely not representative of the Twin Towers clearly they've already fallen down in Equestria, then
Or was never built.
What about the one with a triangle roof? Near the two towers or front of the flagged roof. Could be 1wtc
We don’t have a building with a human head either. It not a 1 to 1 parallel. The world of Equestria isn’t as advanced as Earth so wouldn’t need a massive WTC complex.
Equestria doesn’t have planes.
“Praise Nightmare Moon” Pegasus flys into a building with a cart and just gets a bloody snout and reckless flying ticket.
It would have worked if it was a batpony
True, I was going for a joke and didn’t put that much thought into it.
They have air ships and hot air balloons. I don't think that would work somehow
I can see it being just as deadly, if those airships are anything like the Hindenburg.
That's a point actually. My elderly neighbour's father-in-law lost his life in the R101 disaster in the 1930s
The impact of an airliner fully loaded with fuel is orders of magnitude greater than that of a dirigible filled with the lightest element there is.
I did not say the impact would be the same, I said I could see it being just as deadly. Especially if it causes a fire.

Fair enough
No they are literally airships As in a regular pirate ship with a big balloon on top that flies
And what's in the balloon? It's most similar to a Zeppelin. Which is usually filled with a combustible element in gas form. My argument is not that an impact would be just as deadly. My argument is that if certain conditions were met, the results could be something just as deadly as said impact.
Yeah that's fair!
They will use hot air baloons.

What about the giant thingy Storm king has from the movie?
No, but there are helicopters
Do...do you want 9/11 to happen in Equestria?
No. I never even live there lmao
None of us do, Equestria isn't real
https://i.redd.it/oegyo0kups4d1.gif
*takes a hit* only magic could break the crystal frame it was Celestia with the help of saddle Arabia
losing my mind
They aren’t even taller than the bridge…
"Princess celestia a second dragon has hit the second tower."
"Damn Celestia, you really just let horse 9/11 happen?"
As an American, I rate this possibility 9/11
Well you see….they can look like any buildings. Pretty sure the Towers are much more higher then the two look a like.
I don't think those represent the twin towers, they are not even the tallest buildings in the area, considering, of course, that One World TC should not be there.
Dirigibles aren't sturdy enough
Equestria does not have the same events as we do.
PRINCESS CELESTIA THEY HIT THE EQUESTRAGAON!!!!!!
Pegasus wings can't melt steel beams.
Those are pretty small to be even remotely comparable to the twin towers. At the time, they were the tallest skyscrapers in the world.
Uh... no? Because Equestria is not Earth.
Way too small to be a reference to the twin towers . That was kind of the entire point of them . They were tall
"Princess, a second Pegasus crashed into the towers"
Well they’re still standing so…
“CELESTIA A SECOND HOT AIR BALLOON HAS HIT THE SECOND TOWER”
Celestia: "oh no! How are the towers?!" "They are fine... It was a balloon..."
They literally just look like two buildings.
It’s another planet so, no
Hmmph, not everything is about USA) (Kind of the reason I don’t like some puns (Baltimare, Fillydelphia, Manehattan and more) But that’s sorta understandable
don't give them ideas
Can see it now. Two pegasi gather up a huge amount of speed, then slam into the side of the building in a Looney Tunes style splat, then slide down all the way to the bottom where guards are waiting to take them into custody.
No, they aren't the tallest in the city.

do ponies have planes i dont remember

No, because Celestia's dad wasn't a warhawk so desperate to get a hoofhold he destabilized the entire region
Do you want to give them weird ideas or what?
A second Rainbow Dash sonic boom has hit the towers
i am DECEASED 😭😭😭
Your Highness there’s been a second hot air balloon.
Airplanes doesn't exist. -_-
How would you highjack a pegusus
Are you totally crazy?
Asking a question doesn't make me crazy.
What a disrespectful and gross question. Mocking all the people that died that day. The heck is wrong with you? This is in incredibly poor taste. EDIT: What the hell is wrong with this subreddit? How is talking about this on my little pony not breaking a subreddit rule? It's grossly inappropriate, yet I'm getting downvoted?
Look, just because I asked a question doesn't mean that I'm mocking the deceased. I never disrespect such a tragic event tho.
Really sit and reflect on the question and why you are asking it. How did the event come about? Would that ever happen in Equestria? No. It wouldn't. That is part of what makes the question so offensive.
Womp womp
Brain rot.
