Hello Legends - it's been a while - life gets in the way of life, but here's a cracking interview with a REAL lock picking legend, MARC TOBIAS, who's just released his new book: "Tobias on Locks - Insecurity Engineering". Give the video a THUMBS-UP, it would really help. I've got a video lined up for next week, and a guest (Lady Locks) on a LIVE LOUNGE (no membership required) for the week after. We're back people. I hope you enjoy this conversation, it really was a pleasure to speak to Marc, even with a few Zoom issues.
1. Yay! You're back!
2. That's awesome to score an interview with Tobias, I've seen some of his books, they're incredible.
Hello mate! Yeah, it's been crazy with work, but I've got a few videos and shorts so back in the lock picking legend saddle again!
Legendary Legend
That's the perfect comment. Perfect perfection.
I find the slider in the M3 makes it easier to pick as it gives a good indication as to when you have all the sliders set. Great interview, thanks for sharing👍
"sidebar" I should say!
Sliders, sidebars, shearlines - I think the occasional confusion is almost obligatory. Good to see you here, Dave. Thanks for the kind words.
Amazing interview with an absolute legend 🙌 great to watch mate 👍 and full of great info
Hello mate - glad you enjoyed it. It was weird being a Lock Picking Liability talking to an actual lock picking legend, but he's a decent bloke, and it's a cracking book. Thanks for checking it out.
@LockPickingLegend it's in my father's day wish list mate looking forward to giving it a read!!
Let me know if you do get round to purchasing and I’ll have a word and get a member discount, or a freebie in with the order.
@LockPickingLegend 😍wow thanks mate I really appreciate that!
Wow, thanks for that interview video. Very interesting. I need a book with 700 pages of lock security 🤣 awesome to hear his thoughts about that. Now need to continue the video 👍 nice one Lock Picking Legend and Marc Tobias 🙌
Thank you - you can't go wrong with Marc's books because he just knows so much!
Really enjoyed this interview
Thank you, much appreciated.
Missed the hell out of you Legend. Where the hell ya been? Great episode today. Still waiting on that Lady Locks interview.
Sometimes there's just too many things to juggle. But back in the saddle now, got a video in the pipeline, a few shorts racked-up to go and Lady locks is in a couple of weeks ir I remember rightly, going to do a live lounge with her (no membership required) so that'll be a laugh. Nice message, cheers.
Hell yeah! This cool! I’ll check it out!
Hello mate. Yes, when you've got a bit of time to put your feet up and grab a beer/tea/etc., you'll probably enjoy it.
Great interview. I found it extremely interesting.
Much appreciated.
hi this is very good to know about
Yes, I like the line "When you spend millions of dollars on research and development to make a lock and a thirteen year old girl can open it in a few seconds, there's a problem" (something like that,) but yes, he's right.
Great!
Cheers, Steve.
KOOL!
SmAsHiNg It!
This is the video of the little girl bumping lock at defcon they were talking about. ua-cam.com/video/C5fLgxqWvJQ/v-deo.htmlsi=otF1GdMLDolAxw9H
Good call! Nice one.
I'm a member of the RAC 🤣
Haha. OK. Good to see you.
I'm a member of Narcotics Anonymous. Hmm, not so anonymous now though.
He's a plagerist, I've met him a few times and always come away thinking what a smarmy git (simular to wels). Show me a video of him picking a lock, any lock, I'm waiting. He can't pick locks never has and admits as much when you ask him to. Lss was purely work done by others that he put together into one place then restricted who could read it, the real hero as regards that is John Falle. Not a fan of tobias as you can tell, most good pickers wake up and see him for who he is at some point or another.
That's an interesting take. He did make 4 keys that could open about 90% of the world's Medeco Biaxial locks, and Medeco got him involved for the design of the M4. I find him a decent bloke, and enjoy talking to him. I guess time will tell. I am always happy to have my mind changed, as it means I've learned something.
