Nurtle on Instagram: "A bridge built entirely from popsicle sticks managed to support 948 lbs (430 kg) during a load test. The structure was designed as a truss, spreading weight through triangles instead of relying on the sticks’ raw strength. Each stick is weak on its own, but when glued and aligned correctly, the load gets distributed across the entire frame. That reduces bending, limits weak points, and allows the bridge to carry far more weight than expected. Tests like this are common in e
