LockPickingLawyer cracks an egregious gun safe:
I acknowledge their thumbnail is horrible. They're a great channel, though!
You're viewing a single thread.
I miss when LPL's videos contained actual information.
Every video for a couple of years now is the same thing.
- Throw shade at the manufacturer in the intro.
- Use some tool he sells on his website to defeat the lock.
- Throw some more shade.
- Never elaborate on any of the internal mechanisms, just reiterate that it can be defeated with this tool he sells at his shop.
Go back a few years and you'll see the difference. The channel is really just two minute ads for his shop now.
84 9 ReplyMost locks are similar, he now only shows details for unusual locks.
48 2 ReplyHe takes out the handle with a pry bar and you can reach in and take the gun. What further do you want them to explain lol
31 1 ReplyOkay, that's one video. Now do the 1500 or so others with minimal information.
His videos have devolved to the level of a low effort shitpost.
2 5 ReplyIt's just that your complaint was under this particular video.
I quite like his videos. They're very cozy

In this case it's ... Really not worth explaining anything? And it's not like it's an unusual tool. It's just a pry bar.
Agree in general though
26 0 ReplyFor a channel that built it's reputation on in-depth explanations, if it's not with explaining then it's not worth a video.

He still does teardowns sometimes, but he definitely gets more views just talking shit. His videos over ten minutes get a fraction of the engagement.
Personally, I'm a massive fan of McNallyOfficial these days, who also just mostly simps covert instruments, but he does so while demonstrating all the ways that a speed square can be used to defend against mannequin attacks.
23 0 ReplyThose vids are highly entertaining. He has also taught me that a lot of padlocks can be opened just by smacking them, which is fun to watch.
