@@benkalem Except that the locksmith had said he had been doing it for 20 something years, and so in that time he could have picked up the newer tools to pick the newer types of locks coming out. I could go for it if the locksmith were a young/new locksmith getting into the business an so has had less time an money to get anything beyond the basic tools needed to be a locksmith.
Dude lmao, I was waiting for him to be confident enough to describe everything he does while he does it, but tbh it was scarier when he went dead silent throughout the picking process
Anytime you see someone who knows what they're doing suddenly go silent while doing that thing, you know they mean business. I'm not personally sure entirely what that's like, but I have friends who will sit there and suddenly get anxious when I stop talking in the middle of a game. I've done this in shooter games and watched my friends actively avoid me because they know that they no longer stand a chance 😅
well, he was trying to race against the clock, he probably didn't want to use more time trying to describe what he was doing. And he's already made several Kryptonite bike lock videos anyway.
Dedicating all of his runtime towards the task of picking the lock with the equivalent of his middle finger. McNally might tear the hearts and souls out of bad locks, but LPL surgically removes the will to live from any lock he lays hands on.
Honestly you can kind of tell what the hell he was doing anyway. He slipped the flat one in and popped open into hickey, then he put the tea bar looking thing in there and twisted the backend until the tumblers clicked.
The fact that the locksmith had seen - or at least was completely aware of - your channel, makes me wonder why he wasn't more curious about the tools that are demonstrated. Seems like a bit of a shame he couldn't get a bit more into it and develop his skills
Especially that the tool is not hard to learn at a basic level. Nobody will be picking with it in 20-some seconds after just an hour or less of practice, say. But even a 5- or 10-minute job would be fine as a once-in-a-while thing. Not everyone’s hobby is the same as their job.
Most locksmiths aren't going to devote a significant amount of time learning about how to pick every lock or devote space/money to carrying around a large amount of specialized tools. Especially when they can just reliably destroy the lock and move on to their next job.
@@BriBCGthere isn’t that many special locks or tools to pick those locks a small handbag could carry everything you would need and more and it wouldn’t be inconvenient or heavy if your jobs to get a lock off but all you can do is cut it that job shouldn’t exist given most people have an angle grinder or a friend who has one but if you know how to pick it suddenly that’s a rarer skill set that has a reason to be worthy of a job
customers may see lockpicking as part of a locksmiths job, but a lot of places dont want their techs to pick or at the very least spend minimal time picking because it is significantly more cost efficient to destroy the old one and sell a new one. they are businesses first, and services second.
That grip towards the thumb is very typical in both carving and cooking (particularly when using a paring knife) and gives excellent control of both edge orientation and depth of cut while also providing good leverage as you're using strength very local to the cut . The real danger comes when using a forehand grip (which uses larger arm and shoulder muscles further from the hand) and not being aware of body parts behind the piece being cut. A slipped forehand cut pushing away can swing wildly out of control and strike in particular the other arm, the legs, or a close bystander.
I like that you defended the locksmith prior, that the average locksmith wouldn't have the proper tools necessary for this type of lock. Then the ass-handing commenced.
Generally, when you call a locksmith, the goal is to get past whatever lock is present rather than preserve the lock. Drills/grinders generally do a pretty good job of accomplishing this goal as a lot of customers just want to get into the thing and replace the lock later. Non destructive is definitely preferred, but if you can't open your door and the guy you called out pulls up with a drill, I think a lot of people are gonna shrug and just get a replacement lock.
Or imagine being a lockpicking enthusiast only to end paying an actual locksmith to come use a dremel (which you own) to simply cut the lock…. This viewer is a fool
@@robdubent I mean, I can love lockpicking and have a basic 6 piece set. I can also have successfully picked a few locks. I wouldnt be a fool for calling a locksmith rather than buying a hundred dollars worth of specialty lockpicking equipment. I would be a fool however for spending 75 dollars to pay a locksmith for a 50 dollar lock... If they promised they could pick it over the phone then showed up and only offered to cut it off id be sending them packing without a dime. Dunno maybe Kryptonite locks are really expensive. If cutting was the only option call a handyman and pay like 30 bucks instead! Life hack. My guess is they assumed the locksmith would have no problem picking it and didnt bother to ask for specifics over the phone, then felt like since they had to pay a service call anyway they might as well have the locksmith cut the lock rather than having to do it themselves.
thats me doing body work on people's cars like cutting out the back trunk panel for their stereo system. I don't argue and let them draw with the marker where to cut.
To add to this, I think it's great that LPL paused to state that he doesn't fault locksmiths since they probably don't have this particular tool in their kit nor a professional knowledge of Kryptonite bike locks, meaning the real test is of the integrity of the locksmith in question.
@Flamestripe03 but the thing is they aint self-proclaimed they do have the lockssmith education. But then again its in usa and you are kinda lacking in the education part (at least in some aspects and that are availabel/affordable to the general population )
That dude definitely got owned, but you are right about one thing the most: that dude ain't getting his money back from that locksmith. I wouldn't be surprised if his number will go straight to a automated message haha
If the locksmith was clever he'd get the new tool in a hurry and make a video where he refunds and tells we pick these types as well now. Could get plenty of coverage locally to be more than 75usd worth
Its just a reply to being called "worst offender, and that his videos being utter bullshit".. i don't see anything wrong than just defending his own pride and reputation
It's ok, he's letting the locksmith save face by starting with the fact that that lock's picking toolset is NOT in the general toolset carried by most locksmiths. I thoroughly enjoyed the video!
To be fair, you don't need to spend $1M for a disc detainer pick. There are options out there other than the Pick That Bosnian Bill and I Made for disc detainers. That one just happens to be one of the best R&D'd ones, for obvious reasons.
But that tool is now available for like $35 dollars now. They gave the rights to a company to mass produce it so long as it was affordable. He did a video about it a while back.
Break your customers lock, charge enough money to buy a grinder and cut it yourself. Lose bet and only put the cost of service on the line despite breaking a customers property, which he will likely ghost on anyway
Being a locksmith myself I can whole heartedly say I don't carry the right tools to picks this lock open and usually go for the easier route of cutting a lock open. That said I don't know if wouldve gotten irritated at the prospect of someone being able to pick this. Case in point. This video
I guess it is about time to update tools and skills then :-) I'd expect the locksmith to take the cheapest/fastest route to getting my stuff open instead of just carry the universal tool (angle grinder)
I love when he does these challenges, he hasn’t even opened the package yet, and there is less time left in the video than the challenger has asked for. You already know the outcome. Beautiful.
@@Cinkodacs I bet not even that, i bet they somehow have wafer locks on their doors, so LPL could just use a rake on it, then open the door and say "just to show that wasn't a fluke, let's do it again", close the door, rake it again and say "well, there you have it folks"

Not only picks it in 28 seconds. Adds best utube comment as well. I'd love to hear the follow up with the locksmith. I'd also love to hear lpl give the guy a call
And now this is his second most viewed video, and the locksmith is probably somewhere hoping profusely that his name never gets to the public, while desperately learning new lockpicking skills, so that no one can easily detect him
Can’t even get a locksmith to show up for $75 in Australia, and they use destructive methods to up sell. It’s cheaper to smash/cut your way in and replace the lock. Can’t even get a lock barrel keyed for less than the lock is worth!
A quick Google search shows that a cheap angle grinder can be bought for as little as £19.99 here in the UK. Throw in a few quid for a cutting disk and you could throw the lot in the trash afterwards and still turn a profit.

Well, it's more like, if ppl really wanted secure locks then they would get electronic locks, I'm sure it's by orders of magnitude more difficult to pick an electronic lock since there's no hole to pick, of course there are other methods to exploit the system (also there are many shitty electronics locks that are even easier to open than mechanical ones) but it would be on another level, problem with electronic locks is that they are a pain if they fail or there's a power failure or something.

That's was brutal.
And career

NOTICE: It's actually 26 seconds when he finished picking the lock. The timer was on the 28th mark when he pressed the timer.
LPL: “and we’ll be using a timer...”
Me: *notices there’s just a little over a minute left of the video* “that won’t be necessary”
I was like that to 😭😭🤣🤣
Sad people who watch video time
I checked the time left after he finished reading the letter and the result was painfully obvious when he hadn’t even opened the package yet
When the knive appear less than 2 minutes before the end...
He filmed a 30 second video in 3:50... thats Olympic levels of stretching content.
Dude lmao, I was waiting for him to be confident enough to describe everything he does while he does it, but tbh it was scarier when he went dead silent throughout the picking process
Anytime you see someone who knows what they're doing suddenly go silent while doing that thing, you know they mean business. I'm not personally sure entirely what that's like, but I have friends who will sit there and suddenly get anxious when I stop talking in the middle of a game. I've done this in shooter games and watched my friends actively avoid me because they know that they no longer stand a chance 😅
well, he was trying to race against the clock, he probably didn't want to use more time trying to describe what he was doing. And he's already made several Kryptonite bike lock videos anyway.
Yeah, because it means FULL concentration.
Dedicating all of his runtime towards the task of picking the lock with the equivalent of his middle finger. McNally might tear the hearts and souls out of bad locks, but LPL surgically removes the will to live from any lock he lays hands on.
I wish i could like your comment but you are on 666 likes and that makes your comment even scarier so i will leave it that way 😅

Honestly you can kind of tell what the hell he was doing anyway. He slipped the flat one in and popped open into hickey, then he put the tea bar looking thing in there and twisted the backend until the tumblers clicked.

@Miles ?
@Miles shut up
The fact that the locksmith had seen - or at least was completely aware of - your channel, makes me wonder why he wasn't more curious about the tools that are demonstrated. Seems like a bit of a shame he couldn't get a bit more into it and develop his skills
Especially that the tool is not hard to learn at a basic level. Nobody will be picking with it in 20-some seconds after just an hour or less of practice, say. But even a 5- or 10-minute job would be fine as a once-in-a-while thing. Not everyone’s hobby is the same as their job.
Most locksmiths aren't going to devote a significant amount of time learning about how to pick every lock or devote space/money to carrying around a large amount of specialized tools. Especially when they can just reliably destroy the lock and move on to their next job.
@@BriBCG Then they're not doing their job properly. I carry lockpicks and you really only need, at most, six tools.
@@BriBCGthere isn’t that many special locks or tools to pick those locks a small handbag could carry everything you would need and more and it wouldn’t be inconvenient or heavy if your jobs to get a lock off but all you can do is cut it that job shouldn’t exist given most people have an angle grinder or a friend who has one but if you know how to pick it suddenly that’s a rarer skill set that has a reason to be worthy of a job
customers may see lockpicking as part of a locksmiths job, but a lot of places dont want their techs to pick or at the very least spend minimal time picking because it is significantly more cost efficient to destroy the old one and sell a new one. they are businesses first, and services second.
LPL: *cuts towards his thumb*
LPL’s thumb: *already has a bandage on it*
Boxcutter: “How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?”
I was thinking the same thing 😂😂
That grip towards the thumb is very typical in both carving and cooking (particularly when using a paring knife) and gives excellent control of both edge orientation and depth of cut while also providing good leverage as you're using strength very local to the cut . The real danger comes when using a forehand grip (which uses larger arm and shoulder muscles further from the hand) and not being aware of body parts behind the piece being cut. A slipped forehand cut pushing away can swing wildly out of control and strike in particular the other arm, the legs, or a close bystander.
@@diamondflaw there's a _science_ to this?
Really I said the same thing 4 hours ago. Lmao.
Cut toward your chum, not your thumb
I like that you defended the locksmith prior, that the average locksmith wouldn't have the proper tools necessary for this type of lock. Then the ass-handing commenced.
That wasn't "ass-handing", that was premeditated murder.
IM not average locksmith and i don't have that tools.
IM a gamer.
almost noone has the proper tools thats why
Right
It's a tactic I use in debates a lot. Before delivering the killshot, have to prime them a little bit so they don't get too angry or triggered.
Hes not gonna give him his money back. That's for sure.
pretty sad

@Ow my Bones The american way to do things.

Still I'd send the locksmith this video just to piss him off even further.
Dude imagine being a "locksmith" for over 25 years and your tool of choice is a grinder.
Generally, when you call a locksmith, the goal is to get past whatever lock is present rather than preserve the lock. Drills/grinders generally do a pretty good job of accomplishing this goal as a lot of customers just want to get into the thing and replace the lock later. Non destructive is definitely preferred, but if you can't open your door and the guy you called out pulls up with a drill, I think a lot of people are gonna shrug and just get a replacement lock.
Or imagine being a lockpicking enthusiast only to end paying an actual locksmith to come use a dremel (which you own) to simply cut the lock…. This viewer is a fool
@@robdubent I mean, I can love lockpicking and have a basic 6 piece set. I can also have successfully picked a few locks. I wouldnt be a fool for calling a locksmith rather than buying a hundred dollars worth of specialty lockpicking equipment. I would be a fool however for spending 75 dollars to pay a locksmith for a 50 dollar lock... If they promised they could pick it over the phone then showed up and only offered to cut it off id be sending them packing without a dime. Dunno maybe Kryptonite locks are really expensive. If cutting was the only option call a handyman and pay like 30 bucks instead! Life hack.
My guess is they assumed the locksmith would have no problem picking it and didnt bother to ask for specifics over the phone, then felt like since they had to pay a service call anyway they might as well have the locksmith cut the lock rather than having to do it themselves.
@@robdubentWasn’t the fact that he was biking far from home the first thing that was established?
@@SILVERF0X13 plus, if they destroy the lock and you have to buy a new one, they've just ensured a repeat customer (if they do it right)

To add to this, I think it's great that LPL paused to state that he doesn't fault locksmiths since they probably don't have this particular tool in their kit nor a professional knowledge of Kryptonite bike locks, meaning the real test is of the integrity of the locksmith in question.

@Flamestripe03 but the thing is they aint self-proclaimed they do have the lockssmith education.
But then again its in usa and you are kinda lacking in the education part (at least in some aspects and that are availabel/affordable to the general population )
That dude definitely got owned, but you are right about one thing the most: that dude ain't getting his money back from that locksmith. I wouldn't be surprised if his number will go straight to a automated message haha
If the locksmith was clever he'd get the new tool in a hurry and make a video where he refunds and tells we pick these types as well now. Could get plenty of coverage locally to be more than 75usd worth
When he stayed silent on the picking I was like "Oh shit, the god is angry".

Imagine calling a locksmith and he just shows up with an angle grinder and charges you $75..
Can’t even get a locksmith to show up for $75 in Australia, and they use destructive methods to up sell. It’s cheaper to smash/cut your way in and replace the lock. Can’t even get a lock barrel keyed for less than the lock is worth!
Buy the angle grinder off of him for $30 (yes, they go for more, but they also go for less) and do it yourself.
been there, though as it was after hours i charged 170€ :)=
ETA: my grinder was more than that though.
A quick Google search shows that a cheap angle grinder can be bought for as little as £19.99 here in the UK. Throw in a few quid for a cutting disk and you could throw the lot in the trash afterwards and still turn a profit.

ArchangelExile You are correct sir, I indeed meant to say that if JC confirmed LPL was NOT a fake, the locksmith would still not pay the $75. Thank you for the correction and I will edit my post accordingly.
@@chrisw.4318 No problem! 😉👍
The ultimate "I'm about to ruin this man's whole career"
rightfully so, Locksmithing is clearly not the guy's strong side, he should find something he's actually good at.
Not really. Like LL said: Picking more difficult locks is not the standard repertoire of a locksmith. Just because there are some people exceptionally well at things does not make this the norm. You can still be a decent locksmith. No matter what there will always be someone better then you are, anyways.
@@dundee248 angle grinding locks doesn't make you a locksmith. Case closed.
@@dundee248 So much better, in fact, that they can show off their skills, rather than (or in addition to) using them in a regular setting.
The same difference between professional stage musician and super star stage musician (that is actually good, I mean).
@@befer I suppose he doesn't always use the angle grinder but for a bike lock he is unable to pick, it's a wise choice of tool.
Nobody likes to be told that someone else can do something better than them...especially when the other person is not there and maybe not available.
"I'm locked out of my car" - locksmith turns up with a brick. " That will be $75 for the service, another $75 for callout charges, another $50 for transport cost and 50cents for the brick. "
You forgot this is a professional locksmith.
He’d have charged $50 for the brick, has to mark up the price.
@@knightsofthebedrock One of those good free-range, organic artisanal bricks. They're not cheap, y'know.
"I also replace car windows, if you're interested."
Geez, that's funny.
@@GoYouDeepSeaMonsters yes, yes it is.
When the locksmith sees that LPL starts picking the lock, but there's only 1 minute left in the video:
**nervous sweating**
LPL should have padded the end of the video to add to the suspense! Could have played the chicken dance song or something.
😀
from the moment he opens the package, to the end of the video is about a minute and a half. He completely destroyed the locksmith.
So probably about 30 seconds more than needed
@@toddrisinger3623 LOOL. Yum.
I'm seriously waiting for the day lock makers start rating their locks by how long it takes LPL to open them. "This lock is rated 28 seconds! One of our best yet!"
Squire actually has. Video 896 or something
Best comment award goes to...... Vares65.
He's not that talented, it'd fun joke rating, but he's not the absolute standard.
Well, it's more like, if ppl really wanted secure locks then they would get electronic locks, I'm sure it's by orders of magnitude more difficult to pick an electronic lock since there's no hole to pick, of course there are other methods to exploit the system (also there are many shitty electronics locks that are even easier to open than mechanical ones) but it would be on another level, problem with electronic locks is that they are a pain if they fail or there's a power failure or something.
@@God-yb2cg pin pad locks are pretty easy to exploit and a hardwired electronic system still has vulnerabilities. at the end of the day there is no 100% invincible lock system. I'd recommend just getting a gerda g1000 or one of the same core construction, that thing requires a custom built decoder to break in to. That's as close as you're gonna get for a practical home lock.
I must say despite how fast he opened that lock and as fast as he did it. I imagine it took this guy a really long time to learn all the different mechanisms that are out there and the tools that are required to open them. Not discrediting his skill at all actually the opposite. Really unique skillset man such a unique mind to tackle the some these complexities.
If a professional isn't willing to learn these things about their own job, then they aren't very professional
Well the locksmith talked about in the letter has 25 years expierence....so this is one professional vs another.
He used both his most powerful tools: serious mode and the-tool-BosnianBill-and-I-Made
Yeah dang, serious mode: engaged
@@ToddNZMTB And we know that that was only about 10% of his power
Reading it as one word had my laughing out loud
He didn't even tell us when he got a little click out of 2, and 3 is binding. You know he was serious.
lol
Never seen a "hold my beer" this good.
hold my toolbag
More like, “hold my pressure tool”
The moment you realize there’s only one minute left when he starts
I was saying the same thing lol
He has a 3 min vid, gets challenged to a 2 minute pick, and didn't even start till there was 1 minute left. Rekt
Why do I hear boss music
I was thinking the same thing.
Yes we all know the length of his videos. Someone always points it out.
Watching him cut that package open tells me exactly why he has a bandage exactly where the blade would slip into
