Literally this, but it was because "Karl Jobst viewers" watch this. So, apparently this is what TH-cam suggests when you like the behind the scenes of speedrunning.
He did say it was tricky to single pin pick. ...probably because of how small the pins are and how many pins there are; there's every chance of more than one pin binding at once, so it would be tricky releasing enough pressure to pick the second of two mutually binding pins without dropping the first one you've already picked. I can imagine it's quite frustrating to pick (which is probably why he just sawed off the tips of the pins with the sawtooth rake, in frustration of bricking the first lock and wanting to relieve his stress a little). ...that's what MasterLock padlocks are really for: stress relief. Lol!
This lock has two types of variants available in market 1. Stainless steel, and 2. Brass. So Stainless steel/Brass refer to that, because they use the common packaging material for both.
Yeah, their machine might mill keys accurately down to a millionths of an inch, but if most of the lock's mechanisms were a tighter tolerance than several thousandths of an inch it wouldn't even operate.
Bought a lockbox as a kid once with a little opening to store pennies and shit. Managed to pick the lock with a hairpin when I was 13 years old. I know its a shitty lock, but at the time I never felt so badass before in my life.
Most lock boxes don’t have pins, it costs too much. It’s probably just the key pushes a single thing at the end as it goes in, and then it turns. I found this out when I used a paper clip and folded then bit it to make it smaller, I put it inside and as soon as it reached the end, it was able to turn. There’s not really a reason to use pins and small mechanisms on a child’s box, cuz not many people will go after some kids penny’s and drawings. Unless their a kid as well, in that case the kid probably thinks locks are impossible to open without the key, so they don’t even try, they just break it open.
Thanks, LPL! I've been picking for a month and I've already bricked two locks, neither of which were in use. No harm, no foul. Your "golden rule" about not picking a lock in use is absolutely true!

You shouldn't judge yourself too hard. It's educational. At the very least you will know which locks to avoid relying on. It's very addictive, like watching how the insides of a wind up clock work. (I've bricked a few clocks in my time).
As an engineer, lock picking is interesting to me. As a welder and former general contractor, my lock picks are bolt cutters, angle grinder, or a sledgehammer. Yes I have had to pick a few locks for work (actually pick, not destroy) but generally I tell those working with me to look the other way after I get permission from the owner. My lock pick set is one I made, so having it did not require a crime, but generally walking around with lock picks can get you in trouble if they are found, so I have a spot for them in my work bag. Picking a lock with the consent of the owner is legal by the way.
I came here by a random video suggested by TH-cam. Boy-o-boy! I'm subscribed after watching a couple of videos. What makes it impressive is the detailed explanation given on videos instead of lousy background music. Made me enthusiastic about lock picking 😀
For some reason Ive been watching your videos before bed the last 2 weeks. I'm not interested in picking locks myself but the way you talk about them and the passion you seem to have for everything locks is fascinating. You are a very smart guy. Got a new subscriber over here.
my buddy watches all of your videos. He sells home security systems. If no one is home he just leaves his business card on their kitchen table. Gets quite a few callbacks. A very lucrative business
That makes sense if it bricks itself at the start of an attack, but he was able to get the europa open first and then it bricked, which if it happened to a person using it for security, would mean that at best they're out of a lock they know is not totally secure and at worst they are now locked out of whatever they use it on next until they can get it cut open.
The power move of putting "picked" in the video. I love it. Just the confidence and shear power of a man it takes to say "see this unpickable lock? Yeah... It's picked" love this guy.
It doesn't. As he mentions, the zink used in (many!) locks will melt away extremely quickly and then the lock is done for. But obviously this is still faster and safer, so why use a torch?
@@EnjoyCocaColaLight because most of the time common crooks do not know how to pick locks and would prefer to cut or torch them. It is a practical and real-world scenario.
Assuming you like and know a lot about cars, of course. It's really just passion for something and the willingness to put time into learning the intricacies of it.
How things have changed. His voice is so different compared to newer videos. I really enjoy his older videos. His voice is more of an innocent tone back than compared to the confident tone he has now. Great job sir
I'm lucky, I live in a remote area and haven't locked my front door for 30 years. However I do enjoy these lock picking videos, if I ever move back to a city I will know how to protect myself.
@rysacroft If you do ever move back to a city, you'll know one method of simply keeping honest people honest. A lock does hardly anything to protect you. I'm not saying you don't know how to protect yourself, and genuinely, I hope that you do know how to do so. Either way, best of luck, be that in a city, or otherwise. Just please don't let criminals dictate to you in their own way, where or how you live your life.
when i lived in Thailand in 1988 my house had a steel gate with a WEIRD dimple keyed circular /tubular shaped lock that was UNIQUE and way ahead of its time , i wish I had it today , to send to the LPL to see if he could have beat it . It was pure sci fi to look at .
LPL: A user sent me something they were nostalgic about. Its the GTFCKD series L0L lock. Pretty low quality stuff that unlocks when my dog barks at it. Anyways thanks a lot for sending it across.
The violation that the manufacturer feels when they see him doing this to their lock... it's like they can feel that rake. Look away, Europa, look away!
Grew up in India and Godreg was such a household name for everything from almirahs/wardrobes to locks. Indians usually own a lot of precious metals so I was really happy to see the company featured and talked about so highly.
I’m not a lock picker in any way but I’m surprised that that’s all you had to do. Like really? What is the point of locks and keys lol. Good stuff. I subscribed and I don’t know why really. I will never use this info but it’s really cool
DancingOdie The point is deterrence. Any lock can be defeated with enough time, the point is to make a would be criminal spend so much time trying to defeat it, that they risk detection and thus move on to another target instead.
@@StefanReich basically random chance. You rapidly move the rake in and out making the pins have a high chance of eventually getting into the right position
I was expecting the same, but at the same time, he mentions that it was "hard to pick" (3-4 minutes, LOL), so, it means he picked it at least once, and then he says he is going to rake it because it is faster (and complains that it takes longer now "that the camera is on"), so, it means, at least, he raked it once. So, yes, I was waiting for the demonstration that it was not broken too, but with the context we can assume that this one did not break after the picking (if, as he did, you take care in the last step to make sure you don't push anything inside).
@@Daniel-km9wn I think you're right, and that it's why he was talking about being careful & putting it back to the closed position before things went wrong.
We are using the Europa Diamant and also Godrej door locks ourselves, and seeing that LPL said that he took minutes for the first one was like a blessing, until he raked it open. Still, the fact that even raking took a bit over 15 seconds is so good compared to the usual locks he picks.
i love clicking onto the next recommended video of yours, seeing the number, and then seeing the narration quality. you keep getting better and better. keep up the good picking!
I think I've seen that alloy before. We got some pieces from China that looked like brass, but were definitely somewhat magnetic, so presumably corrosion resistant brass/steel. Quite surprising.

What about doing a torch test on the broken lock to see how well it holds up the the heat.
It doesn't.
As he mentions, the zink used in (many!) locks will melt away extremely quickly and then the lock is done for. But obviously this is still faster and safer, so why use a torch?
@@EnjoyCocaColaLight Because it would be interesting to see?
@@gabriell04032 Okay.
And scratches at level 6 with deeper grooves at a level 7
@@EnjoyCocaColaLight because most of the time common crooks do not know how to pick locks and would prefer to cut or torch them. It is a practical and real-world scenario.
This guy talks about locks like cars.
Assuming you like and know a lot about cars, of course. It's really just passion for something and the willingness to put time into learning the intricacies of it.
How things have changed. His voice is so different compared to newer videos. I really enjoy his older videos. His voice is more of an innocent tone back than compared to the confident tone he has now. Great job sir
LPL is like Leonidas squaring off with the ‘Immortals’. He sees UNPICKABLE and says, “I’ll put their claim to the test!”
also Leonidas, "THIS.. IS... PICKABBBBBBLE!!!!!"
LPL video title: "unpickable"
Me: "This is where the fun begins"
"I must say. This lock is pretty tricky. Gosh it took me a while to pick this one. It was at least three or four minutes."
3 to 4 minutes for an expert like LPL means it would take normal pickers close to 30 minutes to single pick the lock!
I'm lucky, I live in a remote area and haven't locked my front door for 30 years.
However I do enjoy these lock picking videos, if I ever move back to a city I will know how to protect myself.
@rysacroft If you do ever move back to a city, you'll know one method of simply keeping honest people honest. A lock does hardly anything to protect you. I'm not saying you don't know how to protect yourself, and genuinely, I hope that you do know how to do so.
Either way, best of luck, be that in a city, or otherwise. Just please don't let criminals dictate to you in their own way, where or how you live your life.
I always love your content!! Great video!
UNPICKABLE "so first of all, it's definitely pickable."
"UNPICKABLE"
Picks the lock in 30 seconds.
Godrej is one of the most innovative companies and has a pretty good lock lineup compared to most of other locks that he's picked.
when i lived in Thailand in 1988 my house had a steel gate with a WEIRD dimple keyed circular /tubular shaped lock that was UNIQUE and way ahead of its time , i wish I had it today , to send to the LPL to see if he could have beat it . It was pure sci fi to look at .
LPL: A user sent me something they were nostalgic about. Its the GTFCKD series L0L lock. Pretty low quality stuff that unlocks when my dog barks at it. Anyways thanks a lot for sending it across.
This is "low key" ASMR for criminals 🤣🤣🤣
You mean no key...
@@kempoficht Nice
GET OUT
@Nathan Sindlinger 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Nathan Sindlinger That's amazing
Manufacturer: Unpickable
LPL:Rake goes brrrrr
This is great to listen to when meditating or zoning out. I love u lpl
It’s such a pleasure to watch a pro at work.
Europa: "Our Lock is UNPICKABLE"
LPL: "Hold my beer"
[Lock opens in under 90 seconds]
Europa: {Surprised Pikachu Face}
I scrolled down for this comment
dumb
so dumb......
nothing original or clever here
@@PANZERFAUST90 I don't think it was even used right.
@@summersolstice1459 No, no it wasn't...
Leddit
Well to be fair, it didn't say "un-rakeable."
If it weren't pickable as well it would be sort of a half truth but it really is a straight up lie.
I just can’t comprehend some times just how you were gifted with the “Midas touch” with these locks...
We are using Europa and Godrej locks from so long but we didn't knew that these locks are so great!
manufacturer: our lock is unpickable!
Lockpickinglawyer: *hold my beer*
More like hold my diet water from concentrate
Hold the keys*
Hold my fine wine
Or hold my camera/video recorder
*hold my subpoena
“Immortals, we’ll put their name to the test.”
lol i wonder who gets this reference
THIS IS SPARTA!
This quote gave me chills...
The violation that the manufacturer feels when they see him doing this to their lock... it's like they can feel that rake. Look away, Europa, look away!
Nice information given about the which material should be used for making locks.
"this is a complicated lock"
"it took me a few minutes"
strange to hear this in one sentence
Grew up in India and Godreg was such a household name for everything from almirahs/wardrobes to locks. Indians usually own a lot of precious metals so I was really happy to see the company featured and talked about so highly.
Thanks.man I just love you man.u make my live so interesting.respect
Thanks! Great details.

The lock that you couldn't open again had 666 etched into the bottom. That's probably why. 👍
Lol
So it does!
@T1gerFang
Nice 👍
maybe it was 999
The lock of the beast
I’m not a lock picker in any way but I’m surprised that that’s all you had to do. Like really? What is the point of locks and keys lol. Good stuff. I subscribed and I don’t know why really. I will never use this info but it’s really cool
Locks keep honest people out. If someone wants in, they will get in.
DancingOdie The point is deterrence. Any lock can be defeated with enough time, the point is to make a would be criminal spend so much time trying to defeat it, that they risk detection and thus move on to another target instead.
Why does raking work?
@@StefanReich basically random chance. You rapidly move the rake in and out making the pins have a high chance of eventually getting into the right position
Stefan Reich it’s a shitty lock.
WOWW-- My Dad was a plant Comptroller and the High Holys of his company all had dotted keys. Trip, man. 🎉
Love watching your videos
So stoked to see Godrej on this channel!!
Love from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳
Did the second one still work after you picked it? As soon as you closed it back up, I was expecting you to try it with the key right away....
Me too!
Same here, kinda weird.
I was expecting the same, but at the same time, he mentions that it was "hard to pick" (3-4 minutes, LOL), so, it means he picked it at least once, and then he says he is going to rake it because it is faster (and complains that it takes longer now "that the camera is on"), so, it means, at least, he raked it once. So, yes, I was waiting for the demonstration that it was not broken too, but with the context we can assume that this one did not break after the picking (if, as he did, you take care in the last step to make sure you don't push anything inside).
@@Daniel-km9wn I think you're right, and that it's why he was talking about being careful & putting it back to the closed position before things went wrong.
How did I find this channel and whyyy can't I get enough of them??? #QuarantineChronicles
Manufacturer: “literally unpickable”
Lpl: “and I took that personally”
Netflix: Are you still watching?
Someone's daughter: 5:31
😂😂😂
Lmao
@@elgeorge437 actually a joke in the comments that got me laughing :D
Is this a fap joke?
Because I want it to be.
LMAO
"Unpickable!" - "Yeah, took me a few minutes to open it..." - never gets old :)
We are using the Europa Diamant and also Godrej door locks ourselves, and seeing that LPL said that he took minutes for the first one was like a blessing, until he raked it open. Still, the fact that even raking took a bit over 15 seconds is so good compared to the usual locks he picks.
Neat locks!!! Super cool video.
i love clicking onto the next recommended video of yours, seeing the number, and then seeing the narration quality. you keep getting better and better. keep up the good picking!
Godrej is one of the oldest and best lock makers in India. They make cupboards too. I have one that is 80 years old and still works fine.
I think I've seen that alloy before. We got some pieces from China that looked like brass, but were definitely somewhat magnetic, so presumably corrosion resistant brass/steel. Quite surprising.
Love your channel. On my home page today and I’m hooked.
