While The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom encourages players to be as creative as they want using all of Link's new abilities to solve puzzles and reach new exciting locations, many players have discovered that making a really long bridge is just as effective.
Link is able to make these really long bridges with the help of his Ultrahand ability, which allows players to connect different objects together, including logs, wooden planks, and more. Tears of the Kingdom allows a lot of these items to be put together, and this has helped players solve puzzles, reach new locations in unintended ways, and cross areas with a broken bridge or a lot of water that would seem otherwise impassable.
Speaking of water, @mechafriend on Twitter wants to let players know they don't need a boat to cross a river as bridges are clearly superior!

Bridges can also help bypass the security of a place like the Hyrule Field Skyview Tower, and @TheAndyCortez shows that you can even use Ascend to get to a bridge that you can't just walk onto.

@AlexLaverde16 shows the power of a "long log bridge" that makes traversing the Sky Islands a breeze.

@AndresPlays93 shows how you can build a tall bridge to make a climbing platform in a place you wouldn't normally be able to climb.

Not all is perfect in the world of bridge building, however, as players must be careful not to end up like @KenjxXz and lose a beautiful bridge that you must watch fall hundreds of feet to the ground.

@DansGaming also shows the dangers of a misplaced bridge, cautioning others to be careful of where they place their new creation!
