Popsicle Bridge Holds 500 lbs.
Hi, I just wanted to share the excitement…by using ideas from your website (recommended by my son’s Cub Scout leader) my son Jackson and I were able to build a Popsicle bridge with approximately 125 sticks. It set a new record by holding 500 lbs. for about 15 seconds before breaking! Thanks for the great ideas…not bad for the first try! Mark from Fenton, MI

This year, I am competing in a tournament held by a university. I just hope that you can e-mail me about the best bridge model ever designed
It doesn’t look like it could hold too much, if the weights were put on the top. A Popsicle stick positioned horizontally can hold about 7lbs. Wouldn’t those sticks break?
Hello,

Hello, I’m Mako and I am a science highschool student. My professor in physics asked me to do a bridge out of popsicles. He told me that there is a certain bridge design that could hold up to 500lbs.
I suddenly ended up finding this website and I really need some pointers on how you did that bridge. Please e-mail me some tips about bridge building…
