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).

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.
I have no idea why, but the sound of the car going over the bridge each time is just... lovely?

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).

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...

As a pro castle builder, i see them all as an absolute win.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Therapist: “Lego Polybridge isn’t real, it can’t hurt you.” Lego Polybridge:
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.
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.

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

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?

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.
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.
Very fascinating. Would love to see how efficient each design is in energy usage.
