The humans should have turn into ponies if they fall into the dimensional rifts into Equestria.

@Stotter  
I guess so. I guess Spike did turn into a dragon acting like a dog.

Look at the face lemon is making is she high

@Background Human @Inkan1969 @Scrounge
 
I just realized today that having pegasi there to catch them if they fell would probably undermine any sense of danger in that scene. That actually seems like a valid reason to not have them.

@Inkan1969  
I wouldn’t be surprised if it was less “missed” and more “intentionally avoided due to corporate mandate”.

@Background Human  
That was a real missed opportunity for pony characters to directly interact with EG characters.

@Scrounge  
I’d like to think that some pegasus or another would catch them on the way down. (Because hey, free monkey.)

@Background is Best Pony  
After you hit the ground, only a forensics team would be able to tell, so does it really matter?

@Stotter  
The portals seemed to be less like the mirror portal (that transforms that that passes through) and rather direct rips in reality, without transformation.

Do you think Spike the dog was turning back and forth into a dragon during his jackalope chase?

@Background Pony #2D82  
No, he’d go through and come out as a human…?

@VermiIIion  
Then if he went back through the statue portal after the rifts closed, he’d be a double Pegasus.

What if a Pegasus had flown through a gap? How horrible/awesome would that be?

@Background is Best Pony  
I prefer ZapZest (sounds like a name of electricity fetish)

@SeraphimDawn  
I don’t know, the original portal has some sort of ‘filter system;’ safety protocol ‘programmed’ inside the wormhole upon exiting which in this case turning ponies into people, people into ponies to disguise their original form.
 
In additional theory, the original portal beneath the horse statue is a doorway, and these other portals are ‘holes in the wall,’ big holes; the dimensional wall is broken and so people and ponies can travel around the main portal’s protocols and avoiding transformation.

@Lester  
That’ll be sick! I mean that in a bad way. It’s like seeing a person mutating. Or at least like how people turn to werewolves.

@Background Pony #62F3  
FUND IT!

Later they take a roll call and find a young student named Megan is missing.

I think we’ll see a few fanfics where some of the EQG people get stuck in Equestria. Those are, by premise alone, the superior HiE stories.

“It’s not Hell, dear. It’s a magical land of ponies. But it’s also a five mile drop from here, so PULL US UP!”

“It sure is bright and colorful down there for the destination of a Hell-portal…”

@Background is Best Pony  
Oh. In that case, you are not a heretic and I shall not dispose of you. Carry on.

@Kukilov  
…Lemon Zest x Indigo Zap is LemonZap. I wasn’t stopping the train, I was hyping it.

@Background is Best Pony  
That does not stop the shipping train, you naive.

@Background Pony #818F  
Lemon Zap is already being shipped. XD
