If you’ve seen it done you know you need a high ramp to give you the lift to make it across. But since this was a first try we put it down to getting an education.
Isaac Newton didn’t invent gravity — it was there all along.However, he did invent the milled-edge coin and the cat door. So there! One good (to keep people from trimming precious-metal coins) and one not-so-good (letting that pesky cat back in the house).
Even Evel Knievel knew an up ramp is essential, and a long run first for the best transfer of potential energy to kinetic. Remember F=MA, you can’t push on a rope.

Pretty hard to get enough velocity, thrust, and lift with a stone wheel. . .is that math or physics??? Gawd knows, I’m am/was an English major. . .

Bugs Bunny had no trouble defying the law of gravity, but then he never studied law.

And thus was born the idea that somehow something like bridges would have to be invented.
