B1M, you are the guys that inspired me to become an engineer
Go for it ❤️❤️
Engineering is for suckers.

Why?

@@a-teamproductions600 Exactly, pretty confusing.
That's why we also need designers
A-hahahaha
Ladies and gentlemen, it is time to take a break from WHATEVER you are doing to watch the B1M video. It is ALWAYS worth it. Thank you for the post.
Haha, thanks!! (ps. If you're a surgeon or a pilot please carry on)
Isn’t that what why we are here?
I am a human but I guess I’ll take a break from being that...

Im Spanish and business student, I had never been interested in construction til I've discovered this channel, plus ur top-noch narration helps me to improve my English, satisfies me a lot. Thanks.
They didn’t mention the Verrazano bridge was the first bridge built that had to take the curvature of the earth into account.
Nobodys gives a f**k
@@moduke580 The true ny attatuide
Flat Earthers: *confused screaming
3:15 confusing that the land area is blue and water white
That's how it should be the other way around always confuse me
It's not confused. Clearly, it said two counties: Staten Island and Brooklyn that the land area is blue and just water is white that show you where bridge is...

Although skyscrapers are my thing, I loved this video on NYC’s bridges!
As usual, the video is concise, pristinely edited and very informative. Keep it up B1M❤️
There are #21bridges into Manhattan, 19 of which can be walked. I've walked 17 of them since 2016 with my wife and we hope to complete the last two this month. Seeing the bridge infrastructure in person has been an adventure unto itself.
The city could rename the 59th street bridge all they want, but it'll always be the Queensboro Bridge!
I called it "Queensboro/59th Street/Ed Koch Bridge. If that's too long, then Queensboro it is.
And Koch sucked. Only non New Yorkers include the former mayors name when saying the 59th street bridge.
It’s the 59th Street Bridge.. just like the Jackie Robinson will be the Interboro (although I will use the terms interchangeably) and you can forget about the RFK bridge... it is and will always be the Triboro.
I always just said Queenbridge since it's near the neighborhood Queensbridge and I grew up in the projects a few blocks east of it.
I would love to see a video on sky scrapers which never came to fruition, and what skylines could look have looked like.

New York is the heaven of modern architecture 😍😍😍😍
There is a cable car that carries people adjacent to the Queensboro Bridge, love this channel👍
Just rode it this weekend!
The Verrazano's Narrows Bridge was built with the curvature of the Earth in mind. The tops on each side are slightly farther apart than the bottoms of each side. Presumably, if you were to follow them vertically, they wouldn't be parallel. Instead, they would meet in the center of the Planet.
New York is the best city in the world. It’s landmarks are iconic and it’s skyline is beautiful. There is so much culture and history in New York, it’s amazing.
You could say similar things to London 😋.
@@fjellyo3261 nope
fjellyo32, and Moscow, Beijing, Tokyo, Istanbul etc.🙂
@@erik-ic3tp you wish ,nyc more iconic and in way more movies. So gtfoh
@@fjellyo3261 the jealousy is real
I ...never knew how much I love and am interested in bridges UNTIL NOW. Thanks, B1M. 😊👍
Haha, you're welcome 😉
My evening is splendid whenever i watch B1M..❤👌
I absolutely LOVE New York City's river crossings. I live in New Jersey and love driving to NYC. My favorite bridge by far is the Verrazano--Narrows. Such an impressive structure.
You must love to drive in traffic.
@Engineer Markos Mataas Hey if you're such a good engineer, why don't you come here engineer a less smelly subway?
Thanks B1M for introducing Simscale!
Do you use it? :)
I have only recently discovered The B1M Channel. And, I must admit that it's probably one of the best on TH-cam. Thank you, for the great work.
Hello 🇲🇦 Casablanca Morocco 🇲🇦
th-cam.com/video/y4jka-jWLbQ/w-d-xo.html
Always impressed with the quality of videos on this channel! Informative, succinct and visually appealing.
Thanks B1M
Love the B1M, an incredible channel & video; surprised though they didn't talk about the Manhattan Bridge or even Williamsburg Bridge
My folks just got back from yet another trip the the Big Apple (from way up here in western Canada) and will continue going back as they love how iconic in so many ways the city - and its crossings - is / are. Thank you for your careful, thoughtful and poignant analysis, particularly of this classic behemoth among cities. As a photographer and lover of such spans, I'm in awe and await my turn at being among these ancient structures.
Pls visit toronto, and if you like bridges then montreal
Love the variety of videos from the B1M, please do more videos on Australian architecture!!
Really great story about New York's bridges. This is remarkable tribute to engineering achievements in bridge design and construction. Congratulations!!!
What a fantastic video this is. Such well integrated product placement. Incredible!
Interesting and timely video. The NYC Marathon was run quite recently and important landmarks on its route are some of the bridges profiled in this presentation. Thanks for posting this.
What can I say, I love my home NYC! And I love my B1M!

Congratulations for your very accurate research!!! The video edition is also amazing!!!!! 👏👏👏
Like always... amazing video
I wish you talked more about the many road and rail tunnels, those I find are also fascinating.
Such a great video AGAIN! B1M just keeps getting better and better!
Thank you so much! We'd be nothing without our amazing viewers!
You are one of those golden channels on TH-cam. Blessed
Glad you're getting good sponsors. We want these videos to keep coming. :)

Thanks for the info. I love to explore NYC and this adds to my enjoyment
As usual, an excellent, informative video!
Beautifully presented, such quality, with a right amount of detail on each bridge. This is a pleasure to watch and listen to. Thanks.
You’re welcome! Thanks so much for watching and for the great feedback 👍
THANK YOU I ENJOY YOUR CONTENT ALL THE TIME .
i love this video this is one of my favorite channels thanks b1m
Amazing video as always. You guys never dissapoint.
Far out mate, your channel has grown like crazy, I remember 20K!!! Legend man makes me feel good being nothing but a hard working labourer
My life is finally complete I got a love heart by my idols gg
Growth of this channel B1M is wonderful
The Bayonne Bridge deserves being mentioned, especially because they just raised the deck in a huge renovation project
Along with the other to in Staten island
Two
You forgot the Manhattan Bridge and the Williamsburg Bridge!
Should have included Manhattan Bridge as well, very iconic
i always wanted to go to nyc. this makes me feel a bit closer to it. ❤️
The bridge that was never built was the Brooklyn/Battery Bridge. FDR wouldn't allow it. Instead the Brooklyn/Battery Tunnel was built. As Robert Moses said, "What's so great about a tunnel? You can't even see it!"
Excellent! I don't how The B1M makes videos that I always find so damn interesting!
Haha, you’re welcome!! 👍
I can't believe you include mention of the Sidney Harbour Bridge and leave out the Bayonne Bridge!
*Sydney 😜
You are really underrated!!

Love this channel. Keep them coming
Thank you so much!! We will 👍👍
Hai, I'm from Malaysia, I loved this channel!
Another great video!
The Brooklyn Bridge is such a classic design, I hope I get to visit it one day.
Another great and informative video.
Great work.
Always.
You left out three other major bridges 1.(Triborugh Bridge) Robert F Kennedy which connects Manhattan, Queens, and The Bronx. Which this bridge next to the Hell Gate Bridge. 2. Whitestone 3. Throggs Neck,
Overall love your channel! Keep up the good work
Very educative video, thanks.
@3:12 The Verrazano- Narrows Bridge is NOT the longest bridge in the Americas. The Lake Pontchartrain Causeway in Louisiana is.
It was when it opened.....
Love how some people think that bridge and cause way are the same thing 😜
Consistently amazing content
Kościuszko
Of course we enjoy your videos! HD videos with first class narration. What else!😊
Hey b1m please make more on New York and it’s skyscrapers
The Queensboro Bridge is the bridge being driven across in the opening credits of the classic '70s sitcom _Taxi._
Multiple years later, we've seen what the Verrazano looks like under heavy wind loads (the deck rising and lowering). It's amazing what engineers can do.
There are a lot more bridges you didn't cover such as the Gothles Bridge linking Staten Island to New Jersey, the Triborough which was the first of many bridges being built during Robert Moses's era, the white stone bridge or the 138 St bridge linking Manhattan to the South Bronx.
B1M yall's video is best regarding engineering construction.
Very informative video!
Great video. I definitely would love to see you do a video of all the bridges in NYC. It probably would be difficult being that there are many bridges. I'm talking major bridges though. But anyways, I always enjoy your content.
A video about great bridges in America is something I'd watch anytime! Wonder if there's any new innovative bridge projects in America. Hmm.
Gordie Howe bridge in Detroit. Its radical.
@@thebabbler8867 damn, that's quite a bridge all right. Very 'suspenseful' feel to it.
Always a great video!!!...🤙😎🤘
Thank you so much!
And thanks for watching!! 👍👍
I like this video id visit New York amazing city
Iconic bridges by iconic architects and engineers-they don't do them like they used to nonetheless thank you once more for a great show-looking forward to the next.
What about the 3 bridges that connect Staten Island with New Jersey? Like Bayonne bridge since it was just redone
Hello 🇲🇦 Casablanca Morocco 🇲🇦
th-cam.com/video/y4jka-jWLbQ/w-d-xo.html
Ah yes the bridges of my home island, Outerbridge named after the port authority president, Goethals bridge looked cooler when it was a cantilever, and bayonne the Beautiful arch bridge
Love this video and the B1M in general,
but you missed some NYC bridges.
1. The bridges connecting Staten island and new jersey, the Goethals Bridge and the Bayonne Bridge.
2. And the many Bronx - Manhattan bridges
3. You, in general, should have spoken more on the Williamsburg and Manhattan bridges
And with regards from NYC!
Nice video sir 👏
Hi. Can you please do an update on New York’s “east side access” and the progress of the new Penn station??? I love your videos!
I'd like to see more of an explanation of /how/ the bridges are used and the desire for pedestrian and transit oriented crosses rather than private autos.
I Love New York 😁
Me too
Wow, I actually use Simscale. Great software!
Thanks for the feedback Joseph! :) What module do you use mostly? FEM or CFD?
Awesome 👏 video
Thank you so much!!
Next time I go to NYC I’m making sure to visit the bridges.
Thank you.
Fred is this all your own work? In my mind you write and direct but have editors. please tell me The B1M is all your precious baby???
Either way, this channel is in my top 3 easily. Such quality content my man.
Great Video! Just a heads up though I think you guys accidentally used the Williamsburg Bridge twice when you mentioned both it and the Manhattan Bridge.
i love this channel
I’d really like to see an episode on the NYC road tunnels - which are cut and cover, which are buried in bedrock, which are just sitting on the riverbed... and how the ventilation towers work.
We’re on it!
New york city is a masterpiece, when it comes to modernisation & infrastructures, nyc probably influenced most of other major cities on earth
As well as Chicago, both can be credited.
Vibe Lands Chicago? Ok then...
@@Sans-hk8iu , hey, man, the Chicago- NYC rivalry started it all.
Diaby Moh yeah fax I live in nyc I can appreciate both
I grew three blocks away from GWB, good times.
This video doesn’t even scratch the surface. New York City has over 700 bridges.
I know I may be asking too much but it would be interesting to make a video on New York's iconic buildings, which were demolished on purpose such as the Singer Building, Penn Station etc.
That’s a great idea 👍👍
@P-Impmon thanks for sharing.👍
BBC Documentary? No! It is the B1m. Great video bro
The nyc that never was(brooklyn):
1.coney island globe tower , 700 ft
2.battery bridge , next to cary l hugh tunnel
3.staten island tunnel a tunnel between brooklyn and staten island
4.A 1000 ft modern building in dumbo brooklyn
5.atlantic ave expessway
Keep in mind that these were never built but were planned
B1M on the metro, on the toilet, everywhere
More New York videos please
Nice
Good video and all but what about the oldest bridge in New York City... THE HIGHBRIDGE! There’s a great history about that bridge
Ohh I Use Simscale!
Nice! ;)
I drove over the Kosciuszko Bridge just the other night. I didn't realise it was as new as it is, nor that it had the same name as Australia's highest mountain. I remember being stuck on its predecessor a few years ago.
IKR 🤣 It sounds EXACTLY the same. But apparently he's not pronouncing it correct 🤔
I recommend, that you check out, or make a video about ongoing megaproject in the Baltic states - "Rail Baltica". There is an impressive station design in tallinn, as well as in Riga. That would be a great video!
We’re on it! 👍
@@TheB1M Glad to hear it. Can't wait already!
Are they finally linking the baltics with some decent rail?
@@andrewmurphy5310 Yes they are building European sized high speed rail network from Tallinn, though Riga (also airport) and kaunas, with a extra way to vilnius. And they will connect to warsaw, and to further Europe.
@@sonymangames That sounds pretty good. I was suprised last year how pourly connected the baltic states are.
