LPL: One of the most common questions I get in the comments section is how long a lock would take to open if I'd never seen it before. Unfortunately its an impossible question to answer because I can open any lock instantly but the packing may take anywhere from 30 seconds to ten times that
I think he meant this more towards locks he's unfamiliar with. He has seen an ERA lock and key before, so he knows he needs to use a magnet, how many pins to set, and what tools to use. If you would make your own locks that you wouldn't sell anywhere then that would also make them harder to pick (also much more expensive).
Check out any video from the garage! No gloves, holding tings his sawing with an angle grinder with his hand, anything... I just can't believe that he is not more careful with his hands!
"That was far faster than I was expecting" That's a master's way of saying "Don't ever come at me like that again or I'll embarrass you more than I did just now."

I thought exactly the same, that's always so funny when the lock-picking doesn't start until more than Halfway because either the video is really long, or the lock is really bad
That's not fair to this lock. Picking the pins presents enough of a challenge; a lock like this isn't gonna go cheap on the pins. And then there is the magnet pin, PLUS he had to pick out of a false set. This is a hell of a lock and I wish I could find a way to buy one in the US

@@DH-xw6jp "shoots the locks apart with bangsticks" what does this mean? has he shot locks open with guns before? sticks of dynamite or other explosive?
using nitrile/latex gloves might be a good idea in this age of Covid and anthrax. Really, accepting anonymous packages in the mail?

"People ask how long it would take me to pick a lock I've never seen before. Unfortunately that question is impossible to answer" I thought he was about to say "Because I've seen every single lock."

@@yawpaw9796 So he randomly got another lock with an identical core, packaged it in some paranoid shit packaging, sent it via mail to himself, made up a story about people asking for it and a nonexistent locksmith just to make a 5 minute video with him slaughtering that identical core in 20-30 sec? Coudln't he just yknow.. get another random lock?
@@Tyiriel I mean he could but then he would need to buy another lock... I think he does the videos just to "earn" the free lock so people are encouraged to send him challenges to help give him more content.
Some Guy: "I can't believe he could really pick that lock so quickly, let's make him do it on another, sight unseen!" LPL: *picks this one faster* Some Guy: *surprised pikachu face*
I mean, to be fair, to MANY people with pick kits trying to pick your lock, this lock will be unpickable. The magnet is a huge security feature that will keep out all but the most seasoned pickers, so I don't think the anonymous guy will really be happy with this video either... Since yeah, this lock is going to keep out most pickers even with the pins alone. If the lock wasn't "labeled" as similar to the other lock with a magnetic pin, it could change a 2 minute pick to a 30 min pick depending on how readily available your magnet collection is, and how fast you could figure out that it is a magnetic pin. So yeah, as he said before, it's a lock he would actually consider using despite the fact that it could be picked, because you'd be hard pressed to find a truly unpickable lock. But these are grandmaster lock pick champions making these videos, so watching them do it with ease is going to be misleading. It's like watching an experienced magician and watch them perform a sleight of hand trick knowing how it's done and going "Yeah that's a pretty easy trick" despite being widely incapable. I'm sure this locksmith is actually pretty decent at his job (if he's not a sales rep for that company or something) if he's standing behind this lock as it's pretty unlikely these will get picked.
@@SherrifOfNottingham yeah I tried lockpicking recently, and well mentally I knew that obviously it wouldn't be easy, the only real lockpicking I had seen was lpl so I was actually surprised at the challenge of it
Not sure why I find watching these videos so satisfying, given that it shows me how exposed $6000 touring bike is every time I leave it outside a supermarket.
Once again, the most challenging part of picking the lock is getting the lock out of it's packaging 🤣 Interesting lock none the less. Definitely 1 of the better ones I've seen on his channel so far.
@@custardavenger You say that as if everyone who watches these videos aren't also people who couldn't pick this lock despite LPL's videos. Lockpicking isn't easy.
I actually talked to a locksmith who thought his videos were fake. He said that "medeco locks are unpickable" same with abloy. but then again he was a locksmith of 30 years who didn't know what a serrated pin was.
After watching so many vid's its SUPER refreshing to just watch a video and not need to have my mouse ready and waiting for an ad-read I'm just going to skip through anyway.
As ever a slick super quick pick. However, it's clear that if you want to protect something from LPL don't bother locking it, just wrap it in packaging tape. It will take longer for him to get it open than picking the lock.
That's what I got out of it, too. One of the big points being emphasized by LPL's content is that no system is unbeatable, and the constant lesson being taught here is that some lock companies sell products on the false assumption that they are. At best you should consider your investment a deterrent in that the time necessary for most novices to get through your security measures may make it too risky to steal your valuables in the first place, not that your valuables are safe forever. Feeling like that is an easy way to be complacent about your personal security for your belongings enough that you don't check on their safety often, which increases the chances that they can be compromised and stolen in the first place.
The other thing LPL hinted at but suggested is that atmospheric conditions can also cause different scenarios for lock difficulty. LPL needs to be given credit where credit is due. No two locks are the same, so no two locks will respond the same if picked.
That package could have been wrapped by my stepmother, love her dearly but Christmas is always something special when it comes to unwrapping her gifts.
IMO any lock that requires you to have a tiny rare-earth magnet on hand in order to pick is basically unpickable. Theres no way this will be picked “in the wild” unless the picker has had the opportunity to case the situation, leave, and come back with a specific tool set.
@@MrHinchapelotas that's not what he's saying. He's referring to the difference in tolerances, machining, bitting and stuff like that. He's talking about one person picking 2 identical locks one after the other. One might take 30 seconds, the other might take 5mins. Not 2 people and 2 locks or whatever you're thinking
It's the classic running from a tiger metaphor, you don't need to be the fastest, just don't be the slowest person in the group. Same with locks. Doesn't need to be unpickable, just better than the guy beside you.
Something to consider. Picking a lock on your workbench with the ability to hold the lock comfortably in the perfect position to use your tools is definitely not the same as picking a lock that’s in place on a door or something similar where the lock could be protected by a metal shroud limiting its range of movement and accessibility for the tools. Also getting a little magnet in there when the lock is unable to move would be extremely difficult especially if you had to work from underneath looking up into the key way. I highly doubt anyone is calling a locksmith to pick a lock that’s in their shop on a workbench.
Having red marker was brilliant, it rubbed off on your hands to show that the packaging was not tampered with. This way no one can accuse LPL of opening the package before or cutting it open, then reselling it.
Been watching you for like 3 years and only just realised that i never subscribed🤣. Also you convinced me to pick uo lock picking as a hobby. It looks sattisfying
What about any other object that touches? If it comes off on his hands then it would come off on other things as well. Check your extreme sensitivity at the door of UA-cam... it will not serve you well here. And rubber gloves? Seriously? To open a package? Your commentary only makes sense in a world ravaged by a pandemic, not in any normal world where people formed their habits (like opening packages with your bare hands). If that's an acceptable form of packaging marking to you I feel great pity for anyone you mail things to.
@@TheActionBastard comments getting deleted I see. Its pretty obvious the marker was permanent as any other would have smudged in the previous handling and would negate the function as security scribble. The intelligent thing to do is NOT make assumptions as to the quality of the ink and to allow for the fact skin oils will make any type of marker bleed to some degree.
@@DavidKirwanirl Well, if you want something to move, you use WD-40. if you want them to stop moving, you use Duct tape. Doesn't get more simple than that... And if it doesn't work, you're not using enough
Not really, the lock requires special skills and knowledge of the lock. You have to know that the lock has a magnetic pin and have a tiny magnet for it.
Yeah. Though the anonymous locksmith probably did use permanent marker, it's just not going to adhere very well to the shiney surface of that tape. On the flip side, probably verified the package had not been tampered with effectively.
"And my hands are turning red. Next time please use a permanent marker" Ooooooh you could hear the passive agressiveness in LPL's voice. His blood was boiling. But yet, he remains so calm...
@@Dragosmom. Mrs. LPL has a different strategy for opening locks if the ice cream video is any indication. Which given the context of this comment is concerning.
@@Vepar90 i mean if you have the world's greatest lock securing a box made of cheeto dust, you should probably start reevaluating your strategies on how you protect your stuff
@@jonhansson5199 its like $1 to 1000 views and his vids tend to range from 1.2 million ($1200) to 200k views ($200) so yeah hes doing pretty good for himself
I love how absolutely savage this man is. Consistently showing himself picking locks rather easily what the average lock smith think is a steep challenge. Like reel it in a bit my dude. You didnt need to literally kill him.
I'm starting to believe that locking things is a waste of time and instead I should just cover things I want protected in multiple layers of tape with various colors of dye in-between.
If LPL ever spoke to me in the same way he said “next time please use a permanent marker” I would weld shut my door out of the fear of waking up in the night hearing “nothing on one, two, nice click out of three...”
This is the lockpicking Lawyer and today im going to review this welding door, it's not a conventional lock but I was able to beat it using a simple plasma welder, thank you Chris for the challenge.
The moment he said "...and my hands are turning red. Next time, please use a permanent marker" it became obvious that he was going to have malice behind his lockpicking skills this time
@fuck google pretty sure that's why the "anonymous benefactor" didn't use permanent marker. So that if the package was tampered with in transit, LPL would know because of smears on the package.
After watching too many of these videos, I've determined that half a roll of duct tape and some zip ties offer more theft resistance than any lock in production.
I mean, your right. Any lock exists as a deterrent, and there are far more secure ways to ensure something never opens again, if that's what you want. A lock tells any would-be thief: "Hey, this isn't worth it if you don't have the key." Considering most thieves want to get something quickly and quietly (some important exceptions apply), you can simply add enough time sinks to prevent most theft. Mummifying something in packaging means you (the owner) don't have an easy bypass, but you also know everyone will have to spend the time to cut through your valuable's deterrent. It becomes a question of how valuable is the item or location versus how much time and resources are you willing to spend on making sure others can't get it?
Honestly I was shocked he never made it stick to anything other then what he intended I didn't think anyone else noticed how tiny and hard that would have been to do. I hate trying to work with magnets for that very reason because they always stick to something you dont intended even when being careful...
he clearly does a lot of work with neodymium magnets, he does a lot of interesting stuff with them in his videos that people who understand the power of Neo magnets would not dare to replicate. DO NOT underestimate the power of neodymium magnets
@@USS_ESSEX_CV-9 I think his tweezers are also magnetic not sure just assuming based on how they seem to grab things. Not saying it makes it easy but it would help a lot I think I also have no idea what that magnet you are talking about is but assume it's a high powered mini magnet of some sort.
No spoilers! He could start making videos of various length closing music included to extend the video where the length of it is less of a "spoiler" if someone sees those numbers before viewing the clip. perhaps banjo pickin' after the lock pickin' is done.
@@streetsareforpeople723 This is an *actual* feature on electronic locks and passwords. Random time delay and power consumption on each character so no conclusions can be drawn on whether that character is handled by a different part of the program code.
I get it though, locksmiths having been in the field for maybe 10+ years and suddenly everyone around them is showing them this guy. And suddenly they go from feeling like an proffesional veteran in their field to second rate.
Doesn't he say the lock looks familiar? Of course it isn't that difficult to open a lock as a trained lockpicker when you already know how the lock is designed.
"One lock might take 30 seconds, another might take ten times that." So the range for LPL to open a lock he's never seen before is between 30 and 300 seconds. Good to know. Also very likely to be accurate.
Where is this world, please, where 30´´ is considered short, but 300´´ is considered long (???), cause on my planet, both is simply considered "under 5minutes"... ;-) My Windows-PC always takes 30´´ to boot when new, and 300´´ after being in use some months, and I barely notice a difference... ;-)
@@klausbrinck2137lol idk why you are being so aggressive about it. You are entitled to think that those times are not very different certainly, but I would like to point out that the difference here isn’t about how long you have to wait for something, it’s how long a thief has to spend exposed picking your front door or the padlock on your storage unit where someone can try to stop them from getting in or raise the alarm. If it takes just 30 seconds it might also even be perceived as someone who is meant to be there fumbling with their keys.
@@harryf9885 Not aggressive, just pointing out that for average people, both 30 and 300 is short, we all know that from our everyday lives. I admit, that for a lockpicking-contest, there´s worlds in betwwen, but even among burglars, I bet, it makes no difference... ;-)
I would genuinely like to see LPL’s process when he sees a new lock if he hasn’t done it already: how he analyzes it, if he looks at the key before he picks, how he tells what special tools he’ll need if any, etc.
I mean, if he is doing a new lock for a video, he could just look up the lock and see what the inner workings of it are, id assume. It would probably have to be like, if he was on the job and stumbled across something new. That I do agree would be cool though, albeit harder to accomplosh hahah.
"This looks like standard threaded duct tape in white. I'm going to use Scissors with 4 3/4 inch blade made from stainless steel" ... "Snip on one, snip on two, cut out of three" ... "We have a little bit of rotation" ... "Cut on one, cut on two and it's open, just that easy"
While this isn’t something I would use to secure my favorite scissors it does have its benefits. In any case if you do have any question or comment............
Okay, this is a lock constructed of human bone, sinew, and hair... looks like infant bone. As you can see, it's attached to a chain wound around this musty tome. The book does appear to be making a muffled shriek, but that shouldn't pose too much of a problem. Let's see how this goes. ... Little click out of one...
You forget one thing. He is a laywer. So those edlrich horrors give their cultists strict instructions not to do that. They would try to close all doors between them self and him and then hear Nice click out of one, nothing on two...
"I got a nice lock out of it" made me wonder how you store and organize your vast and ever-growing collection of locks. That might be a fascinating video.

Coudln't he just yknow.. get another random lock?
@@Tyiriel I mean he could but then he would need to buy another lock... I think he does the videos just to "earn" the free lock so people are encouraged to send him challenges to help give him more content.
Some Guy: "I can't believe he could really pick that lock so quickly, let's make him do it on another, sight unseen!"
LPL: *picks this one faster*
Some Guy: *surprised pikachu face*
We are not meritocratic here in the UK. But Anonymous person obviously didn't want to look like a donut, so stayed anonymous.
I mean, to be fair, to MANY people with pick kits trying to pick your lock, this lock will be unpickable.
The magnet is a huge security feature that will keep out all but the most seasoned pickers, so I don't think the anonymous guy will really be happy with this video either... Since yeah, this lock is going to keep out most pickers even with the pins alone. If the lock wasn't "labeled" as similar to the other lock with a magnetic pin, it could change a 2 minute pick to a 30 min pick depending on how readily available your magnet collection is, and how fast you could figure out that it is a magnetic pin.
So yeah, as he said before, it's a lock he would actually consider using despite the fact that it could be picked, because you'd be hard pressed to find a truly unpickable lock. But these are grandmaster lock pick champions making these videos, so watching them do it with ease is going to be misleading. It's like watching an experienced magician and watch them perform a sleight of hand trick knowing how it's done and going "Yeah that's a pretty easy trick" despite being widely incapable.
I'm sure this locksmith is actually pretty decent at his job (if he's not a sales rep for that company or something) if he's standing behind this lock as it's pretty unlikely these will get picked.
@@SherrifOfNottingham yeah I tried lockpicking recently, and well mentally I knew that obviously it wouldn't be easy, the only real lockpicking I had seen was lpl so I was actually surprised at the challenge of it

Interesting lock none the less. Definitely 1 of the better ones I've seen on his channel so far.

Probably the manufacturer, trying to figure out if they need to redesign their locks
I actually talked to a locksmith who thought his videos were fake. He said that "medeco locks are unpickable" same with abloy. but then again he was a locksmith of 30 years who didn't know what a serrated pin was.

You might need to contact the Package Opening Lawyer for this one.
After watching so many vid's its SUPER refreshing to just watch a video and not need to have my mouse ready and waiting for an ad-read I'm just going to skip through anyway.
As ever a slick super quick pick. However, it's clear that if you want to protect something from LPL don't bother locking it, just wrap it in packaging tape. It will take longer for him to get it open than picking the lock.
In all honesty this seems like a great lock that requires a very small magnet and a deep understanding of these locks most people won’t have
That's what I got out of it, too. One of the big points being emphasized by LPL's content is that no system is unbeatable, and the constant lesson being taught here is that some lock companies sell products on the false assumption that they are. At best you should consider your investment a deterrent in that the time necessary for most novices to get through your security measures may make it too risky to steal your valuables in the first place, not that your valuables are safe forever. Feeling like that is an easy way to be complacent about your personal security for your belongings enough that you don't check on their safety often, which increases the chances that they can be compromised and stolen in the first place.
That's what he said in the original video 1184. He said that it even was a lock that he would consider using =]
It took him 60s to open the package and 57s to pick the lock. Looks like we found LPL's arch-enemy, it's duct tape!
“One might take 30 seconds and the other might take 10 times that” So... 5 minutes, That’s still better than any of us could do
Why do I call both of that simply "under 5 minutes" ???
I wish we could have a live reaction of the locksmith who sent the lock's face.
Bet he's just awestruck.
You are a master of opening tough steel locks 👍...yet you have to learn a lot about opening tape and paper packages 😂
I expected him to say "that's an impossible question to answer because I have seen every lock ever invented."😅
The other thing LPL hinted at but suggested is that atmospheric conditions can also cause different scenarios for lock difficulty. LPL needs to be given credit where credit is due. No two locks are the same, so no two locks will respond the same if picked.
Lol i was thinkimg the same thing. Made me laugh.
That package could have been wrapped by my stepmother, love her dearly but Christmas is always something special when it comes to unwrapping her gifts.

'One of the more difficult packages to open"
**looks at the bar** maybe difficult, but a really fast one
As an automotive tech I have no idea how many times I’ve wrapped a co workers tools in woven zip ties and tape scored and counter wrapped.
IMO any lock that requires you to have a tiny rare-earth magnet on hand in order to pick is basically unpickable. Theres no way this will be picked “in the wild” unless the picker has had the opportunity to case the situation, leave, and come back with a specific tool set.
"Given two identical tooking locks one might take 30 seconds and the other one ten times that"
Such an ace humble brag.

@@hedonist2104 implies no lock is going to take more than 5 minutes.
@@MrHinchapelotas that's not what he's saying. He's referring to the difference in tolerances, machining, bitting and stuff like that.

When it actually takes longer to open the package than to open the lock 😂😂😂
That's called masterlock
not unusual tbh
It's the classic running from a tiger metaphor, you don't need to be the fastest, just don't be the slowest person in the group. Same with locks. Doesn't need to be unpickable, just better than the guy beside you.
"YOU ARE UNDER ARREST!" - "NICE CLICK FROM THE HANDCUFFS...."
Something to consider. Picking a lock on your workbench with the ability to hold the lock comfortably in the perfect position to use your tools is definitely not the same as picking a lock that’s in place on a door or something similar where the lock could be protected by a metal shroud limiting its range of movement and accessibility for the tools. Also getting a little magnet in there when the lock is unable to move would be extremely difficult especially if you had to work from underneath looking up into the key way. I highly doubt anyone is calling a locksmith to pick a lock that’s in their shop on a workbench.
Took longer to open the package then to pick it 🤣🤣🤣 well done sir 🤘🤘🤘
Having red marker was brilliant, it rubbed off on your hands to show that the packaging was not tampered with. This way no one can accuse LPL of opening the package before or cutting it open, then reselling it.

Check your extreme sensitivity at the door of UA-cam... it will not serve you well here. And rubber gloves? Seriously? To open a package?

@@TheActionBastard comments getting deleted I see. Its pretty obvious the marker was permanent as any other would have smudged in the previous handling and would negate the function as security scribble.

@fuck google pretty sure that's why the "anonymous benefactor" didn't use permanent marker. So that if the package was tampered with in transit, LPL would know because of smears on the package.
After watching too many of these videos, I've determined that half a roll of duct tape and some zip ties offer more theft resistance than any lock in production.
I mean, your right. Any lock exists as a deterrent, and there are far more secure ways to ensure something never opens again, if that's what you want. A lock tells any would-be thief: "Hey, this isn't worth it if you don't have the key."
Considering most thieves want to get something quickly and quietly (some important exceptions apply), you can simply add enough time sinks to prevent most theft. Mummifying something in packaging means you (the owner) don't have an easy bypass, but you also know everyone will have to spend the time to cut through your valuable's deterrent. It becomes a question of how valuable is the item or location versus how much time and resources are you willing to spend on making sure others can't get it?
