This bridge goes through the water and not over it, The Netherlands
Skua, The Dutch, not content with merely driving the sea back, now seek to taunt and humiliate it
567PrimeMover, 
Not unlike the mighty Beaver, the Dutch have an instinctual drive to bend water to their will
RooRLoord420, And much like the beaver, many of our artificial flavors are made from the expressed anal glands of the Dutch.
TvanBuuren, We try our best ;)
Ryumast3r, Do you really? Because I hear from Europeans they hate you.
I joke because personally I love the Dutch, but not necessarily Amsterdam. Such a great country.
The Danes have you beat in friendliness though I think… They’re so damn happy I can’t understand it.
megasin1, You’re thinking of a caricature from Austin powers.
Risk, OP’s image needs to be captioned with your comment and then ever so slightly jpegified. chef’s kiss
AnarchistArtificer, I have no idea why you think it would be improved by slight adding of jpeg, but I agree, and I don’t know why. It feels like meme salt. Or maybe meme umami
Skua, It's a matter of time before we start manually adding iFunny banners at the bottom for authenticity
Swedneck, 
Ryumast3r, If you hit source (jerboa) on the image you get this:
appel, 😗👌
Plaid_Kaleidoscope, 
Fucking masterpiece
Obi, 
And it was the result of beautiful team work. Good job team, I hope that meme takes off.
tkk13909, Beautiful
Scribbd, EDIT: Linky as tall images don’t do well in web, unless you are an ant.
Risk, Has polandball come across to the fediverse yet?
bentsea, How does this work? Wouldn’t even a light rainfall cause it to flood in on itself?
MrSlicer, It would have drainage on a slope that goes to somewhere even lower.
ErwinLottemann, The bridge is waterproof and the water is a moat. You can find more info about it here.
bentsea, I appreciate that, but even waterproof things can be underwater and moat water can rise. I’m curious about how the drainage works.
Zozano, What the fuck is this place. The hills look like a PS1 game
odbol, Looks like the hill has fur
monsterpiece42, 🎵 a cut-out bridge beneath, hills with the furrrr… 🎶
sebsch, Not a hill, its a levee
TheBat, 
What happens if it breaks?
superfly_samurai, 
Amazing music!
soulifix, The Netherlands is the PS1
MrSlicer, Double dam
WhiteHawk, It’s all water besides the bridge now
mrmanager, 
Wow. There is very small margin for overflowing here…
oatscoop, There’s probably an overflow spillway for the whole pond out of frame.
Shou, Correct. That bridge is meant to flex on water control. This is near a place that is susceptible to river floods.
Obi, Don’t worry the Dutch know what they’re doing when it comes to water.
Ryumast3r, That just adds to the fun.
Missnalgas, Is it a “bridge” though?
LEDZeppelin, It’s a bridge too far
Kerrigor, 
Don't look a bridge horse in the mouth
MxM111, 
or too low
buycurious, Feels like it’s more of a “trough” than anything else.
danc4498, It’s a dam.
MxM111, You are dam right.
danc4498, 🤓
DauntingFlamingo, I’m going to get a pet beaver and name it God, so I can yell “God, dam it!” with impunity.
postmateDumbass, Double dyke dam?
TheBat, It do b ridge
DaveNa, Looks inefficient resourcewise.
Pat12, And if it floods then…?
RGB3x3, Then you go around, duh.
Swedneck, it doesn’t flood, this is the netherlands
sheepyowl, Holy shit this comment fucking killed me. It’s so funny.
I understand that a flood in the Netherlands would spell catastrophe but it sounds like the water just can’t flood there, because it is the Netherlands, not because of the amazing stuff that they built
Lux, Why do you think water evaporates in the mincraft nether?
Obi, It definitely just gets accepted as a fact of life that the Dutch water works just fucking work.
Swedneck, The water could flood, but it knows it would be met with swift draining of another polder in retaliation.
The sea simply behaves out of sheer intimidation.
dedido, I imagine that the footpath has holes at the bottom to allow any excess water to drain out.
LostXOR, That would just make it flood through those holes.
TheWorstNL, Woooosh
rodhlann, 
This looks like something someone would make in Rollercoaster Tycoon
Ryantific_theory, Even knowing it’s real, it feels like one of those photo-realistic concept art pieces, or a weird AI diffusion that screwed up how bridges work.
postmateDumbass, Is there an underpass for fish and such?
azdood85, Naw, fish can jump over or pound sand.
CloudMunch, No, there’s a fish bridge just off scene.
Entropy, I feel like that shit floods every time it rains lol. I’m curious how they would drain it.
Anticorp, Just drill drain holes in the bottom. Duh! Oh wait…
itsJoelle, I not proud my internal dialog went exactly like that.

Stoneykins, Congratulations on being the smartest person in this thread so far, no one else has apparently ever heard of a pump before
heeplr, how they would drain it.
Since a lot of land is below sea level, the Netherlands basically dry pump their country all the time anyway.
ProximaC, So it’s the Berlin Wall for fish…
vaultdweller013, “Fuck you fish” -The Dutch apparently
Kallioapina, 
Now they are just mocking climate change and the rising seas, and asking some eldritch sea gods to punish them.
