      he knew he wasnt really going to be able to do any lock picking with his knife so he needed something to stretch the video out to try to convince the algorithm to show his videos to more people. thats dedication to the algorithm

    Despite having watched many lockpicking videos, yours was the first that actually explained why the pins bind as they do. I also really liked your wooden demonstration version, and how you were able to visually demonstrate it without having to look through a tiny camera or lots of clear plastic.

      Everyone should check out the “Lock Picking Lawyer”, he is the master. he can typically pick any lock and I really mean any lock under 2 minute and then take out all the pins and springs, to show the audience. His videos rarely takes more than 5 minutes. He also never shows his face , only his hands.

    Once i had bend the tweezers using it as a tension tool and i had used the stainless pin as raking tool,the toothpick was too big,but the pin was too short,so i holded it with the pliers of my SAK,finaly it works with a little bit of luck.Now in an emergency situation I could separate the tweezers in to two part,to use one as tension tool and to file the second part with the metal file from my SAK to use it as a raking tool(i carry two tweezers,one my pocket,one in my key chain,Lol).The paper clips are great locking picking tools,MacGyver's style...anyway,nice video as always,Greetings from Greece my friend.
