- Building and testing various LEGO bridges to see if it is possible to hold 100kg of weight!
Built using LEGO Technic the ever-increasing weight causes the collapse and destruction of the LEGO bridges which are improved in each iteration.

Can we have a moment of silence for all the innocent technic pins that gave their lives in pursuit of this demo?
A lot were lost for the benefit of the video!
I’m Crying😢
Fr rip😢😢😢😢😢
And the sharks 😢
Of course we can. But only for the black ones, the blue ones diserved it
The "cables" aren't really doing much here, by the look of things, since the central tower is ultimately just resting on the truss span; it looks like the main reason the final bridge passed the test was that the anchoring for the tower helped reinforce the center portion of the bottom to take the tensile strain better.
From the first box-girder bridge onwards, the failing components were always the pins between the main beams on the bottom (the side bearing much more compressive stress); I'd expect that overlapping the beams more and using axles instead of pins would've improved performance.
It will be more effective upside down!
😢
Yes, l thought that too. Last one realy must be turned upside down, so it will become upside down suspension bridge. Or he just could prolong main tower to the ground)
Um what did you say
My thoughts exactly@@Arhange1790
Those frames were connected in straight lines, the construction would have been stronger if the frames were connected in an overlapping pattern, like how brick houses are made.
That last bridge makes no sense at all. It sould be supported at the center, not at the ends. The pylon and cables make no difference.
Finally someone who actually understands how basic physics works
If he used them as compression bars it would have worked but no
IKEA table are incredibly strong !
Great video, fun to watch.
If anyone can correct me, please do. I love to learn:
I think your bridge design could be improved. Your last bridge, the cable stayed one, has a design flaw; that being that a traditional cable stayed bridge has pillars that are supposed to be load bearing. Instead of the center holding up the edges, you have the edges holding up the center, which favors a truss bridge or a through bridge. Having all that lego in the middle is really heavy, as well.
But I'm not an engineer, and I loved watching your video. Just a suggestion.
A suspension bridge is the best idea in my opinion, back in middle school I had an engineering class as an elective, and there was this challenge to make the strongest bridge with just popsicle sticks and anything we brought that our teacher approved of, and I asked if I could bring some light rope, and he agreed, so me and my two friends made a suspension bridge, and we made some cross bearings for the (I forget the technical term) tower thing in the middle, and we won.
The only problem is that in this case. If the beams where ropes they would not do anything. Because the tower is the middle the ropes would experience compression force and as you know. Ropes are too good at compression forces
Nope
Stack plates side wase and greate an H beam that wil be the stongest
OMG, the bridge's durability is admirable
The whole deck is made from square's, should have used triangles instead. Triangles are soooo much stronger
But triangles are not the strongest shape.
@@cavalierliberty6838it is tho
Not according to RCE
@@cavalierliberty6838 what is the strongest form then?
That creaking. Never thought it would hold that weight.
6:44 lets give a applause on that bridge holding 101 kg while on life support
Bro got weights from ww2. Really good and solid content keep it up
Ah thanks for the support!
A bridge has fallen into the river!
Quick!!!
Build a man to repair it!
Theoretically most of us could stand on that?
Hey, absolutely! That was the aim! You’ll have to get on slowly and carefully though!
Beautiful video thanks for sharing 😊"
No worries! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
I believe that one way to reduce stress on the center point of the bridge would be braces that would have rested against the table edges. That way when more weight was added, these braces are more likely to take most of the load rather than the main span of the bridge itself.
This should have 1m+ views
Fantastic!
Thanks for the support!
My civil engineering professor used to say: given enough time, money, and materials, anyone can build a bridge; only an engineer can build a bridge that just barely doesn't fall down.
The "cables" can handle way more during tensile stress than during compressive stress.
So the bridge would be stronger if you flipped it upside down.
Not only this, I’m pretty sure he isn’t aware of any internal stress distribution (for instance, those horizontal beams are utterly useless due to the minimal axial moment) and only considers the whole thing as a rigid bar. But good content tho!
@@gary9793 Witn a 100Kg lego brigde you can handle 100Kg weight! Very impressive...
First comment after 6 minutes, I’m sorry, so much effort, but no one is active😢😢😢
I knew my upstairs neighbor was up to something 🤯
Amazing!!!! Kind regards from Germany
Glad to hear you enjoyed it!
@@BuilditwithBricks yes of course, i really enjoy your great skills. So nice
the innocent triple technic pins and double pins 😢 tehy gave there lives
I’ve got a broken parts bin that’s growing after every video!
the downstairs neighbour:
"what the hell they doing up there?"
It's obviously possible, I was just here to see how it'd be accomplished. Unfortunately, barely any visual information is presented on how it worked. Would've been better to show exactly how each stage fixed the previous failure in detail.
XOOL!!! HOW ARE U NOT POPULAR!?!?!?!
Ik
Mother: Stop watching iPad ! It’s bad for you and you watching TH-camrs play games all day is rotting your brain!
What I’m watching:
Crazy
I could stand on top of bridge 5 and it wouldn't break. I'm 20 years old. It's wild to think lego can be so strong
wouldve been stronger if you staggered the boxes and instead of the pillar at the middle, pillars of either side lifting the middle
Yea it can!
nah the poor sharks
Came here from tiktok, I like your channel
huh, so its like building a kilotone bridge for 100 kg, totally not overkill
Gotta have a good factor of safety……
Plates would help lock prices together
4:00 yeah the car aint gonna make it
RIP to all reported injuries…
Stagger the joints like a brick wall
professional upstairs neighbor
I don’t like the cracking noise when they put the weights on.
TRIANGLES! NO SQUARES! PLEASE!
Upstairs neighbours be like
His downstairs neighbors☠️
How many 5x7 framas did you have? And how much $$$ they cost
I’ve lost count…..!
I hope you got no neighbours in the appartement below you :D
I can literally walk on this bridge even jump and this won't even move ☠️
Crazy how the TikTok video has 180k likes and the main video got 700 likes
Their is NO way that little Lego car weighs 100 KGs let alone more then a pound! Lol
Car weighs 100grams he went with a factor of safety of 1000
@@sovietunion8304 uh, no it's a joke. And I was joking about it.
A KG is 2.2 pounds his goal as you saw was to make a bridge able to carry 100 KG, which is over 220 pounds. Look at all those Weights. Do you really think 10 of those Lego Cars weigh as much as a single 20 KG weight!??????
sorry im not the best at picking up jokes in text im also American so i have no idea how the metric systems works all i know is its base 10@@jamessilva1259
Poor sharks.
Should’ve used triangles😢
6:42 you call THAT a pass?
Technically it did hold 100kg but it was already beyond damaged and probably would have crashed within a few minutes. If you say that a bridge can carry up to 2t for example, you are saying that the bridge can transport up to 2t without risking damage. That might be a tall task for mere Lego constructions so it's fine if it's risking damage but it shouldn't show obvious signs of material failure I would say.
Some guy stole this and posted it on tiktok
222 pounds is crazy
Only bridge 6 can support my weight😢
Someone needs to learn about trusses
Did anyone come from that one tik tok vid that dosent have a second part?
🙋
A bridge with no triangles. Sad
This is not a bridge, it’s a really flat brick
some really bad designs ... far too much build in parallel where it should have been truss geometry and ending up with a center pillar which isnt supported at its base is very silly.
could have achieved the 100kg with far less and with much more style
Это неуважение и издевательство над Лего, нет машинок весом в 80 кг!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The annoying sound effects whenever he upgrades the bridge
Doesn’t look like Lego to me…..
