Me like brick too
Like brick we do
Brick like I
I don’t like brick… I love brick
I have no idea why, but the sound of the car going over the bridge each time is just... lovely?
High pitched electric noises

Nice bilfs!
Ok
No way

Hello. also congratulation with 2 million subs!

And the video just ends right there. What a work of art. No asking for subs, likes, linking videos on screen to get additional views. It just ends with all the bridges on screen labeled. This is perfection.
this is a great demonstration. what I like is that you can fairly intuitively understand that these different mechanisms were invented to solve specific problems that the others don't address.
I can tell as much, but not specifically what. I was mostly thinking about what the most energy efficient method was.
The tilt, table, and vert-lift seem to be at a disadvantage by how high they can be raised. All the others will permit ships of arbitrarily large height. Perhaps those are easier to use, because you're not putting the fulcrum at the end of the bridge, but rather along the wide edge or all corners at once (to spread the energy evenly).
Yeah? Explain when and why to use the different types then

@@Paul2nis that's kinda cool, I didn't know this, thanks!
I just love the fact you can build an entire successful youtube channel/career off making nerdy engineering stuff out of lego. Amazing.
That’s the best thing about Lego, it’s great for engineering and easy to put together 🤣
@@timehunter9467 Not necessarily lego, it's more of how youtube works as a platform. Plenty of people are making successful careers out of niches they enjoy making videos out of whereas this wasn't really an option decades before.
without talking
@@HeavySparkit’s not really an option anymore either unless you’re an above average tiktok girl or extremely talented
Says more about us viewers than him 😅
Nice to see at #10 the transporter bridge receiving a bit of love. Just a handful of them still remains, much less in operating conditions, and I live just 5 km from Bizkaia Bridge, the first one ever made and still perfectly working at 130 years old, an UNESCO heritage monument. The Eiffel tower of bridges (seriously, Alberto Palacio, the engineer, was a student on Eiffel studio).
The one in Newport not far from where I live is still working though as I understand it it's really only open as a tourist attraction. It is 117 years old.
@@_starfiendteesider
We have one in France, at Rochefort, near La Rochelle (Charente Maritime region). It's almost never used and it's more like a remnant of a distant past. Its mechanism is told to be a real pain in the a$$ to maintain. I guess those bridges are used only for places where you don't often have to transport something from one side of the river to the other...

Polybridge is a chaotic version of polybridge..
I would say less chaotic

Bridges are definitely one of, if not, the most interesting pice of engineering. Combining bridges with lego, and doing in a simple way like this video, is just so cool
The folding bridge looks the most unstable. I hope in real life, reinforcements are added so that it doesn't bend as much as this one did. Well done on this!
i am pretty sure in real life the joints get locked in place
No I'm pretty sure in real life they follow this exact schematic.
Many of these are just for demonstration purposes. Still super interesting.
@@Atlas.Brooklyn The people who pump real-sized table bridges up and down must be massive
@@Atlas.Brooklyn Yep. All real life bridges are made from lego.
You know its a good day when Brick Experiment drops a video
🤖🤖
Honestly despite how simple the video is, I must say it’s incredibly entertaining and satisfying to watch👍
As a pro castle builder, i see them all as an absolute win.
I love how the ones that perform the best are the ones commonly used in real life.
yeah even the transporter one is used irl as well.
@Redemption mind=blown
Using a miniature for testing is very common before building and engineering the real deal. If the small version works best then the full sized version is likely to work the best.
@@NotTheDAHASAG mind = bricked
Me when the best option is the best 🤯
This is like miniature IRL Polybridge 😂
Just about to say that, polybridge is fantastic
Heeey, someone already said what I was thinking
i like brick. The sound of the legos clicking together is always so soothing. .
The synchronized but at the end was a plus. Great video demonstration.
It's impressive how much you communicate without uttering a single word. The use of motors etc to show the mechanisms and minifigs moving on their own after building with your hands really brings the LEGO to life! Perfect video, as always.
5:10 seems like the driver fell in the water anyway. rip
😂
Just like the 43 people on the Amtrak train
@@T.TCuber47 actually
This is an amazing demonstration despite it being so small, he tried to make the design as compact as possible using lego as the base. This is just marvelous and an always iconic illustration of how you can put kids toys to real engineering.
When you realise you can just make the bridge taller but you’ve been trying to build this guys inventions for over 2 hours: BRUH…
I wonder if it is possible to make a horrifying bridge that uses all of them.
You could just make a series of bridges that connect to each other but each with a different system
The Cronenberg bridge
There's Poly Bridge for that
yes. u have multiple pauses and beams supporting each stage of the bridge and all ur doing is making the person in the car stop and go every 2 seconds because they re waiting for every bridge to go up and down.
even then its very likely u could combine 2 bridges into 1 and it still work rather well.
Ya and the public would wait, in traffic for 19 hours. And then the police would write tickets, for causing a nuisance while sleeping in your car.
If there's ever a part 2, consider including the "Strauss Bascule." The most common design uses a parallelogram linkage and they are found all over Chicagoland (mostly for railroads), as well as lift bridges (7:15), Scherzers (1:21), and some old designs that are now locked in place including a Rall bridge, Page bridge, and bobtail swing bridges. There's a PDF called "Historic Chicago Railroad Bridges" that explains more about them.
anyone else gettig polly bridge vibes here
I like how the boat just yeets itself off the edge of the world right after sailing under a movable bridge
It would be cool if you did a part 2 where you recreate some of the interesting draw bridges in the Netherlands!

Yeah, we do have some interesting drawbridges in the country.

A wise man once said _"perhaps the best Lego is the one we made along the way"_
Loved this, I wish there were Technic sets that did this sort of thing.
For a real challenge the Vazon sliding drawbridge in Lincolnshire, UK would be an amazing thing to model.
The table bridge got me a good laugh, well done xD
My favourite part is seeing the boat falling down right after it passes the bridge as if there was a waterfall
Edit: you can see all of the boat falling down at 8:55 and ut’s the funniest thing
As a lego boat driver i can confirm that there is a waterfall.
5:00 Every day I row under one of these. The bridge is massive. You can see the gears working and it's just super cool.
I street?
Your a amazing lego engineer. Your intentions is like great. Awsome!
I love seeing these in action. My city has a big swing bridge that lets all sorts of big and small ships pass through; seeing it on such a small scale as well is really interesting.
botak
4:10 This mechanism is similar to a cars convertible roof folding back. It would be very interesting if someone implemented it into a build! Very cool video!
My favorite one is the folding bridge, as that allows you to cover a massive space with a one-sided bridge! It could do with some extra locking mechanisms and reinforcements in reality, though, as no bridge should bend down under heavy loads as much as that one did.
The best thing about LEGO is that it can be used to translate into real life, so most, if not all, of these bridge designs can and will work, and have worked, irl. LEGO is just simply too good.
i love the end.
The Screams of the lego motors, fills me with joy
0:08 A MAN HAS FALLEN INTO THE RIVER IN LEGO CITY!
also 5:10 a car has fallen into the river in lego city
HEY!!
Never fails to impress me
This guy is a lego engineering genius
You have the greatest satisfying videos on TH-cam! Thank you!
1:48 Medieval bridge! Cool Idea!
The joy I felt when I saw you did all bridges side by side synchronised!
Coolest LEGO TECHNIC MOC, I've ever seen..!! I love the use of the mini figs..
I like how this youtube channel is constantly teaching us mostly simple logical solutions to modern mechanisms. Very informative and makes us more aware of our surroundings.
7:43 Transporter Bridge is a very unusual idea. Idk if you pay for the bridge or not but slow and delayed. Imagine if they keep using those ideas, it'll get traffic forever...
That's what i thought of it when i first saw him build and use it
These bridges are usually used for light traffic areas that stretch over long plains. Some of them float on the water like a tiny barge to enable it to stretch even further and hold more load.
Х дхарма
Love these lego videos! My math teacher showed the class some of your videos which was cool!
The turning bridge is the most efficient, balance is spot on
Excellent modelling along with excellent detachability and flexibility with excellent to look simplicity behind concrete engineering
Now we're gonna need RCE to review it
1:20 Strongest shape. This video is a proper Polybridge "tribute". He'd be proud!
I can't help but wonder, why would you pick one bridge over another? Where's the shots of something going wrong and a new bridge coming in that addresses that problem? I like seeing iterative design in action- or at least some pros and cons.
It's usually due to specific use cases. Some places don't have the space for the bridge section to lift in a specific direction. Or the bridge can't support the weight or something over a section lifted or turned or what have you. Sometimes it's because they can and it looks cool
@@hothi92 also they need to take into account what the bridge will be used for
The size of the boats that will be passing through is also a major consideration.
Money, Available Materials and Long Time Maintenance are also major considerations
It's not so much things going wrong where another bridge is needed, it's more a matter of available space, money, and materials, and requirements in terms of traffic
You a true mechanical master of Lego
ASMR + Engineering + LEGO = Win.
As I was watching this I was thinking I'd love to see your take on a transporter bridge. Did not disappoint! :D
There's one near me that's over 115 years old and is still in use today.
Is that the one that Terry Scott drove his Jaguar almost off the end of the gondola, or the Newport one?

Love the Bascule bridges!
5:40 bro just rides through a cable lol
And at 6:28 too
He always has
imagine the transporter bridge (7:29) irl😂
I'm sure it exists somewhere out there, but nobody found it yet?
Therapist: “Lego Polybridge isn’t real, it can’t hurt you.”
Lego Polybridge:
This is why both a ship to battle against another kingdom and a vehicle going to McDonalds are *able* to *safely* cross the bridge.
The battleship just won against Brickish Kingdom.
The vehicle went to McDonalds and *finally* found the normal ice cream machine and bought what they want.
Nice build!
My favorite was definitely the table based purely on the fact that I didn’t know LEGO had produced pieces for pneumatic.

in my opinion the bascule bridge is the best, its fast and it seems very simple to build.
Bro imagine what would happen if a car was there while it was going up😂 5:26
YEEET
I like the new textures of the Poly Bridge. XD
In the drawstring one it looks like you fed the string into the cylinders that propped the string up (whatever they are called), how did you do that? To better explain, during the calibration process where you held the string so that it could tighten, where did the excess go?
Very fascinating. Would love to see how efficient each design is in energy usage.
Real bridges of most types would have counterweights, making them much more efficient.
Very cool!!
I built a retractable bridge style ramp for my 1/10th scale theme park ride (the thunderflash roller-coaster) only mine retracted under the platform instead of over and had a 2 step extension arm too. All inspired by your marvellous creations thanks bro and can't wait to see what you come up with next 👍.
What a great video, thanks a lot for these ideas. I will for sure rebuild the one or the other... 👍🏼😀
Very cool! I don't know if these all have real-world examples but if they do it would be cool to put a little clip of a real-life bridge with that mechanism after each one!
That's what I was thinking too, the only touch missing from this otherwise excellent video
Great video. The more complex something is and the more parts used, the higher the chance of something failing. Keep things as simple as possible, for longevity. Applies to everything
applies to life
az első a legjobb.... egyszerű, olcsó, elegáns, fenntartható, a többi komplikálthoz képest...bár jobb egy olyan híd amit nem akadályoz senkit a haladásban és emelgetni se kell
Love your videos. Always excited to see a new one posted
3:05 retractable bridge design flaw
you need to make the other bridge a bit lower, and add a smooth piece so the bridge doesn’t click onto the other side
Or have the ramp retract under the platform instead.
3:45 I am enjoying the sounds of the womb.
yeah its fun to watch all those various ways to build bridges. i was interested in it before too. but honestly, the mechanisms between gears and all the mechanical parts really facinates me... like most of those are probably not advanced at all, but im not experienced with those - although i kinda wanna use it somewhere. nice video.
You must be an engineer! My favorite bridge was the first one. Plain and simple and gets the job done. I have never seen the clear gear box before. Going to have to search for it. Thank you for sharing.

1,3&6 are my favourite ones
and number 6 (4:58) is also nice for when you want to change roads
Would be interesting if you made a video about movable bridges, as in: bridges you can place down and pick back up again after use!
There's a video I've watched on TH-cam about a remote control bridge building truck, as it is in real life in the Army. I forget the channel name now but the bridge laying machine model is amazing! Drives up to the gap, lays the bridge in front of itself, drives over the bridge and retrieves the bridge afterwards! Mind blowing.

The vertical lift bridge is my favorite. It reminds me of the one in Duluth, MN. You should have shown that cars can be on the bridge during the lift. It give you a good view.
4:00 bro what the nerdy hell was that
I'm kind of curious how you would approach a bridge with a railway over it. You could use the vertical lift bridge, but the gap would be an issue. If you'd like to build more bridges, could you consider approaching one with rails on it?
I know a few real life rotating railway bridges. They work well and as a child I was fascinated that for the length of the bridges there was no overhead wiring for the train. It would just coast (at high speed).
