  • the song doesn't fit the video at all??

  • @KarstonLikesMustangs thanks dorothy

  • i had to use 30 popsicle sticks and it held my 240 pound friend jumping up and down and still didnt break

  • @TheGrymkhana42 was it flat on the ground or being suspended. I did the same to my bridge and it wouldn't show signs of breaking, although that isn't what bridges were built for.

  • Hey, I did this before. I used steel rods and covered it up with the popsicle sticks. Hold all the weights my teacher had. haha

  • We did this in one of my classes.

  • w0o0o0ow cool!

  • @zamaroksgodd Very possible. I held 346lbs with an 18" bridge.

  • Awesome. I was in a popsicle bridge building competition in Virgina State. Only popsicle sticks and elmers woodglue. My bridge weighed ~2.5 lbs and held some 346lbs over an 18" span. We took the bridges to a test lab where a hydraulic piston with a 2" base would push down on the center of the bridge and would record the maximum pressure until the bridge started to give.

    I got 2nd place because we divided the achieved pressure by the weight of the bridge (mine was ~140lbs per pound of bridge).

  • @bikercc deff had to span a gap between to tables....

  • sad sad people :L
