Ini beneran, ada di wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magdeburg_Water_Bridge Dia bilang menghubungi dua kanal the Elbe-Havel Canal<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elbe-Havel_Canal>and the Midland Canal <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mittellandkanal>. Saya sependapat tidak perlu hitung berat kapal, cuman maksimum water level aja, tambah safety factor mungkin 20 %. Berarti dua kanal tersebut tidak terhubung dengan sungai dibawahnya, karena berdasarkan prinsip "bejana berhubungan" tentunya level air akan sama, tidak mungkin berbeda seperti gambar, kecuali ada energi yang mempengaruhi (seperti pompa). Tapi logikanya, sungai ngalir ke laut, dan kanal terhubung ke laut. Kalo sama-sama terhubung kelaut, tentunya prinsip "bejana berhubungan berlaku. Kecuali kanalnya terhubung ke Danau yang terpisah dengan laut, kalo terpisah bagaimana cara kapal menuju laut, masa naik daratan..:D. Ada yang bisa jawab kebingungan saya?? Atau karana saya Tolol makanya bingung... piss ah..
