Ha ha ha why is this video getting so much attention it's been 8 years
It's hold like 5 phone in there
Bra i know. 4 red bulls! Haha
Made six years ago
2019: TH-cam algorithm: here watch this video
I've actually just started engineering at this university, so I guess the algorithm works!
Look at location in description... I guess that algoritam just saw the word Christchurch .

Makes no sense lol, who are you even quoting anyways
@@JohnnySins69XO the original speaker is unkown. It's an engineering saying. The point is anyone can waste tons of resources to build something that goes beyond the scope of what is necessary. An engineer has the expertise to design something that gets the job done without waste.
That red bull bridge design was impressive
Chris P, it just looked nice. All the bends and things.
Chris P. They all failed with 3 people on it.
4:20 had like 6 people on it
Andrizzle it was
thanks for that correction
This is very interesting. After reading the description, the bridges are supposed to carry 2 people and break at 3 people(with the lightest design winning). Which I think is even more difficult than just making it as strong as possible.
Much more difficult. Finding a medium without trial and error is an interesting and clever concept
Definitely because making a bridge strong is hard but not as hard as making a bridge strong but not strong enough to hold a certain amount of weight(3 people) so it’s very challenging and that is what makes this challenge fun!
@@r0xdab0x96xo I am structural engineer with bridge engineering sepcialisation and I dont know if you are engineer but today we have such advance computer programs for calculations that it is not that hard at all. I always loved bridge building competitions because it is fun and teach you how to think and also you learn manual skills. BUT when you compare these '' models'' to real bridges there is very few things that connects them. I designed steel model that weight 50kg and with 5m span can take 1000kg and it will have 1,2mm deflection (max load would be at least 2000kg) So you See what proportions are in terms of weight to load. In real structure this ratio is much smaller and for Road cable stayed bridges for example it is around 0,25 (load/bridge weight). I myself designed 300m cable stayed Road bridge at my master degree diploma 😀
Interesting
Thanks for sharing!
Is there any event that red bull doesnt sponsor?
@@kasper5688 youd rather have no sponsor?
Kasper Leinonen but why?
@@PDS350.
You should make your own competition with no sponsor or materials in your backyard and maybe they'll show up. Let them have fun and test their skills at an organized competition.
@@kasper5688 Dude chill, it's just a drink...
Legends has it. The kid is still saying "it's gonna break down" in 2019
Tell me this would you have been as interested in a bridge competition 5 years ago

all comments: GRRR WHYS HE TALKING GOD WE KNOW ITS GONNA BREAK UGHH
Also Bridge: Am I a Joke to You?

*Putts log across it*
Well I am obviously superior.
Trizlet xD
Iq level on a whole nother lvl 😱😱😂
You need to find a log that collapses with three people on it. The challenge of this competition is to build a bridge that carries 2 people but collapses with 3 people on it.
Silent Bob
That's an oddly specific competition that seems counterproductive in real life
It requires more work and thought, and that's what's expected of you at university.
Why am I watching a bridge building competition?
Rex Ezard Algorithm
dont ask us, we're all wondering the same thing
Because u wonder if you could do this
Because im high as plane and it popped up on my recommended.
The real question is, why aren’t you?
Girl :”It’s gonna break with the next person on it!” Repeats 10 million times.. 1 year later
“ See I told you!
If polybridge has taught me anything its that i already knew the bridge at 2:30 would be the strongest
HA
Triangles op no matter what
Triangles master race
Chronic_Slayer trust the trusses
And trusses above the load isn't reliable in this part as there is no beam interconnection between trusses as humans need to pass in this scenario.
It's called Warren Trust Which i knew in my Engineering school.
Topped in Engineering Board exam in my place 😎
See i told ya
Ha
Hari Kumar that kid was annoying
Hari Kumar i wanted to slap that kids
See i told ya 😂 so annoy
cum on, it's a kid :D Why would you beat a kid? You were witnesess of child curiocity and engagement. Something most adults have lack of.
This was incredibly wholesome to watch a rare occurrence on TH-cam I can't believe I've enjoyed watching a bridge building competition. I guess thanks whoever posted this
Does those engineers had practise her bridge building habilities playing polybridge?
“its gonna break one more person, its gonna break one more person”
*third person gets on and it breaks*
“SEE I TOLD YA”
Actually the rules of the competition stated that the bridges have to hold 2 persons and break with a third one
For anyone saying the bridges are flaws, then its because they kind of have to be. The rule of the challenge is that the bridge should support 2 people and break when the third person comes on. And i think the team that build the lightest bridge that fits the rules above wins
Correct. The purpose of this competition was to exercise the students creativity, knowledge and ingenuity
@@r0xdab0x96xo that's the purpose of every competition
The bridge at 3:40 is known as a truss system . Widely used around the world. One of the strongest designs out there .
Warren Truss*
Noe Salgado Yes we fucking know that.
TommyTom I didn't and I thank the original comment for informing me on it.
well, thats university, they should know it haha
Looks like somebody went to school like the rest of us.
Holy shit this is so wholesome and adorable. What a lovely community event! Imagine how many friends you would make alongside wonderful summer memories. I wish the UK had some more of these community events
When the news about a mass murderer change your TH-cam feed so you see the positive, supportive and carefree side of the people of Christchurch. Stay strong.
This was shot in Christchurch?
@@dogsoap but it was taken there, look at the description
@dogsoap Damn, guess you don’t have a witty comeback for it actually being in Christchurch, huh?
@@josephromines6057 i was sleeping. i didn't see the description :) guess i was wrong
I love the kid in the background it's gonna break down it's gonna break down lol.
That kid annoyed me so much, I yelled No shit sherlock in the middle of the library. People are looking at me now.
sound like you're the one who think of that.
saya takagi Weirdo he’s just a kid
See! I toldcha
I bet hes a bridge expert
After 5 years this appears in my recommandation list
It shows up in my after 6

I love community like this always bring smile to many people
This needs to be like our every day life, people full of joy, being together and having fun with the small things
Even though the last bridge broke with an impressive amount of payload before failure, and although, at first, i thought that the bridge that can withstand the most payload within certain bridge building construction parameters govern by the contest was considered the winner, I realized after reading the description that it's carry two personnel, fail with three and the lightest bridge wins. This contest is awesome in the learning process. Would've been neat to see a suspension bridge but these were all beautifully crafted bridges from some great candidates. Good job structural engineers!
Our team build a suspension one in 2014 competition, but fail for just one person😂
see i told ya its gonna brake

@@seanhornchek6440 I think he did that on purpose
Maximbady
I didn't see any cars braking in the video but okay.
See, I would have picked a 300 lbs as my third person just to be certain the thing gets wrecked...
Woah this is weird . I went to this when I was in my first year of uni . I was sitting in the grass bank with some friends I have not seen in years . This randomly popped up on my suggestions today with so many views . Happy times in christchurch.
IT'S GONNA BREAK DOWN,IT'S GONNA BREKE DOWN!!
I read it as the kid was sayin it
See I told you it was gunna break
Ohhh so the bridge is *supposed* to break with the 3rd person! What a strange criteria 😂😂
It is to determine who have a better understanding about bridge structures
The educational system lacks failure. It punishes you for failing, but it is there where the most learning occurs.
So to have a project designed to fail, and understand how and why it’ll fail is the unlearned half of the learning function.
Understand how something will succeed isn’t all there is to it, because life itself isn’t fully designed to succeed.
it does make sense. Anybody can throw as many resources they can and simply go overkill and waste money on something that isnt necessary. This is to evaluate who can make it that its the most efficient for the usage case required
@@heart_break1 this is a university assessment. I am guessing one of the teams were flatmates with one of the red bull promo girls who hang around campus
@@ynabi4363 why don’t they build a full bridge , it seemed they all were like half bridges and all were missing the last step
4:25 girl in the black with the grey shoes subtly jumps twice to break the strongest bridge. Is successful on second attempt. Watch the ankles.
poidial true, their bridge already had more people than 3 (which was the point: for your bridge to break at 3 people) so she probably helped out the team. I’m pretty sure all of the people had little sneaky things they did to help it break
0:50 guy reaches back and breaks the support with his foot
@@driverjayne Damn nice catch
"It's going to break with one more person"
"See I told ya!"
Shut up you big fighting nerd, go train in some random corner to get your master's approval.
@@HullsColby What lol
4:40 That Guy in a gray
sweater. Did Destroy it Look at hes feet:
random shit w
even pushed the girl off
He did Push her in the boob
What the

0:53 the guy was hanging like spider man
Charging Active The man you mentioned stepped on the wrong place and broke the bridge.
Yes he did, he stepped on the thin one.
Rei Sonoda he clearly did it on purpose and that pisses me off>:(

Yup, and this guy is an imbecile.
Rei Sonoda what a bitch 😂
0:49 cheating...
You're totally right
What happened
@@WisdomThroughGod guy on far right pushes a minor support beam with his foot, and it's clearly intentional...
@@MrDanimalInstinct yeah I just saw that... so lame
Wow, this really put a smile on my face. I wish we had these kind of competitions while I was a student.
Its gonna break down 100x
It's 2.30 pm why am i watching a bridge building competition on youtube...
OMFG I READ THIS COMMET AT EXACTLY 2:30 PM WTF
1:07
lmao same
I read this comment at 3:20
Welcome to the first episode of Why hasn't TH-cam showed me this earlier
It's being recommend because Christchurch is in the description so if you've been watching videos about the shooting then yeah you get this.
I love this, this is so wholesome. I hope one day I can visit new zealand and witness awesome things like this. Thanks for the recommendation, TH-cam!
0:53 wow that kid must be a genius for knowing that! Harvard where you at?
lol
0:49 seee? i told ya!!!!!
@Randomizer Lol, he isn't cringy, he's just a kid, what is normal to you, to him is completely new, and he's still learning stuff, so being able to deduce that it was going to break with 1 person shows that he's gaining knowledge by the minute, which is what kids do.
I don't know why this made me so happy?? It just looked like everyone was having so much fun!
Me: why is this in my recommendation?
Blue shirt kid: TH-cam Algorithm
Probably because 'Christchurch' is in the description
DEAD
This is what college kids should be doing, engineering our future and not our social issues, leave that up for the more wise. Great vid
Too Shmart The "more wise"? Like the clowns who want to rob from the poor and middle class to make themselves richer? Maybe you should leave commenting to the "more wise".
Marque Lethenstrom Obamacare is robbing from the poor and middle class.
The more wise? Why should they be deciding how society functions when they are gonna die in 10 years? They don't give a shit about society anymore.
Maybe if they have engineering degrees?? Not sure why you are demanding what type of career choices they make. Not to mention you bring up "the more wise" as if society isn't already being run by idiots. Everyone has the right to speak up. You don't like it? Then move to NK where the "wisest" and most "godly" man on the planet gets to make all of your decisions for you.
the fact this got 100+ likes is scary. it barely makes sense. "the more wise" dude anyone whos creating or getting involved in social issues isnt wise at all.
For the actual rules read the description!!! It supposed to break with 3 ppl and should be as light Al's possible
yea, I read that and didn't get it. why do the rules say that? is a bridge not supposed to be strong?
@@Livin4Jesus00 Because if it is too strong you are wasting money.
@@lazar2175 oh, i see. so its about the structures...
Uchiha Hitler
Yep. It’s to show that you understand how bridges work and don’t work.
what an interesting competition tho. according to the description, it's *supposed* to break with three people
Someone needs to make a metal song out 3:51 “ITS GONNA BREAK DOWN”
"It's gonna break down."
*Drop*
lol, Mariah ft Bone Thugs N Harmony
Thanks youtube recommendation. It is so peaceful, really love those community
I think this is a very good idea for young people. Fun, competitive, educational. That's what all people need
This looks fun competition for everyone!
This video is so chill I love it
The nice background music
The group of people just having fun
The interesting projects
damn
4:41 LMAO LOOK AT THE GUY IN THE GREY T-SHIRT HE SABOTAGED IT
Mad obvious you're right lol
Here's a tip: Use Wolves!
Also works for building:
-Submarines
-Speed Boats
-Minnie Vans
-Planes (Sometimes)
and Baby Cribs!
SEE I TOLD YA
Omg yes
Omg XDDDDDD ITS FROM STORKS
Storks?

Why is this in my recommended feed
I don’t know why, but I enjoyed this video so much. Brought such a smile to my face!
Poly Bridge: Physics Edition
The music, if anyone wants to know, is by the band Tortoise, from their album 'TNT'. I think the track has the word 'bridge' in it.
"The Suspension Bridge At Iguazu Falls" is the name of the song lo/
David Macedo ah yes thank you.
The algorithm is at it again! We'll see you guys in a year or two!!
AWESOME! I saw this in Twitter in April of 2021! Greetings from Patagonia Argentina! I wish you many success for all of you!
dang, those bridges were to beautiful
This reminds me of 5th grade math class when we had to build bridges using balsa wood and see how much weight in sand they could hold. It was really fun
I don’t know why this is recommended to me. Usually I don’t clicked anything longer than a year but this is awesome!
I see TH-cam recommendations have brought us all together again. fairly entertaining video, was not disappointed
Did anyone else hear the kid talking at 0:44 😂😂? “It’s going to break down, it’s going to break down”
No I'm deaf
"This bridge is sponsored by raid shadow legends"
this looks like such a fun project
I was thinking the last group was the winner, until I read the rules: carry two people and break with three. So the earlier bridges actually scored more points for breaking when the 3rd person got on.
Legends has it that they are still searching for the perfect bridge
Bridge exists:
*3rd person has entered the chat*
Today TH-cam algorithm recommended to me a bridge building competition from 2013, which I never even knew was a thing until now . Yes of course I watched it. You never smite the TH-cam god.
I keep coming back to this video
4AM TH-cam: Hey check out these crafty crossings
2:50 Hey Pingu!
I thoroughly enjoyed this.
This was surprisingly fun to watch tbh😂🙌🏻
Still way better than the one in Florida!
Legend has that the guy at 0:53 is still hanging there.
Being a university project I guess there is a greater understanding of moments and in advance you can do the maths on forces that will be applied. Very interesting concept to have to break at three for sure!!!
TH-cam! When have I ever watched a bridge building video?!
STOP RECOMMENDING!
uhhh thanks youtube... i guess

That was awesome. I wish this was more of a thing.
This gives me serotonin thank you my friend
1. Why was this recommended to me?
2. Why am I watching this?
The mii crowd came alive on this one
Man that looks fun as heck
We had to do this in high school very cool , it teaches you about engendering & structural integrity
Y'all remember doing this with toothpicks in elementary/middle school?
Where was FIU's entry?
it broke down before they could submit
The little kids in the background though. “its gonna break one more person” *bridge breaks* “see I told u”
Nice and funny competition. Does it take place each year? What kind of materials where used? It seems to be a great chance to show learned skills while strengthening friendship :). Who won?
1:28 is an awesome bridge
Welcome kids to the dark side of youtube where you see people in New Zealand have a bridge competition...lmao..
Why was this so relaxing to watch
Every bridge construction game tells you triangles are the way. Obviously that bridge is gonna be the best one
