or 30 Master Locks

A Master Lock (even the "Military Grade" models) he opens in mere seconds... This puzzle took him a lot longer than any Master Lock, I guess

Not really, I'm a hobbyist and haven't come across any master locks I can't open at this day. I'm sure most locksmiths wouldn't have a problem with them.

That's only because the locksmith had to study the padlock and assess the situation to make it seem like he didn't forget to bring the bolt cutter with him when he first got out of his truck.

LPL: "You open locks with the key. I pick locks with the key. We are not the same"

😅

i mean, if you really did want to secure something super well, you could probably use this lock

@@BlueDogXL remember that this is the intended way to do it, we have no clue about how long this lock would take to pick.

@@BlueDogXL With brute force you could easily open this lock. Security is not the intended purpose

Any lock that you can't approach with standard tools is a good lock. F.e. a lock with magnetic pin. If you don't know it has a magnetic pin before you start lockpicking - good luck. Before you figure it out and get the right tools, your window of opportunity may be over. Also LPL can always manipulate the lock while IRL many padlocks are placed in a very inconvenient positions, so you have to really perform some gymnastics to be able to lockpick them. So overal - I'd take fairly simple non-standard lock placed in a hard-to-manipulate spot over best quality stanard lock.

​@@bezimienny_andzej6425very good points. The best security is layered and 'awkwardly and annoyingly located' is a feature.

This is why so many puzzles have the added challenge of putting it back together. You can't just wiggle everything every which way because you have to be able to retrace your steps eventually.

I remember a puzzle stand where you have to take apart few details that are intervened together. I'm an engineer, so I thought that vibration could take anything apart eventually. It took two seconds of vibrating it by hand, and I broke previous record.

Honestly I think his method could possibly be easier. Because when the other rods in play. It makes the mind think it needs to be used. Even if it only had one use. Nobody would know that for certain, without first trying. Which adds to the total time it takes. Not saying that it may not have been done just as fast by LPL.

To be fair, he said it would have been easier with lockpicks.

@@Steev42 very true, however due to the design with the small pins holding the shackle in place I believe it would present more of a challenge than more traditional mechanisms, and most likely require more time than normal even for or highly skilled lawyer compatriot here, but then again he is one of the best lock-pickers on the internet.

@@wilclark2562 maybe and maybe not. I'm sure he would have thought of bypassing method as well if external tools are allowed. Like shimming the short end. That would be easy peasy

@Wil Clark It would also be hard for the lock *owner* to lock and unlock. The tradeoff is always between security and convenience (see: online passwords), this lock would really fail on the convenience front if it was touted as an actual usable lock. The pick resistance (security) isn't important if more often than not you're not going to bother to even lock it in the first place. Sorry for saying the obvious, it just felt like it needs to be said after you guys started talking about pick resistance :P

Heroic mode.

How did he use less?

@@kb_dev at the very end of the video. he realizes that there is a tool to unscrew the screw that he did not use

​@@kb_dev There was a tiny hex screwdriver hidden in the pouch the padlock came in. He simply just used the key.

If you ever had to tighten or remove one of those screws, it wouldn't even cross your mind that they'd include a separate tool for it. They already gave you the key after all. Worst case you could've just used your fingertip.

Are you familiar with locks and mechanical devices in general? If not that’s totally fine, I think you would need these to develop your thoughts at least

This specifically, the time spent visualizing locking mechanisms that he mentions, makes me think that LPL is/was either a practicing patent attorney or would have made an excellent patent attorney if that's not the career path he originally followed. Not every patent attorney has that kind of visualization skill to take something apart in their mind's eye, but it's an absolutely requirement for all GOOD patent attorneys (at least ones dealing with physical designs anyways).

Who cares. Just put it in corrosive acid. It will be open. 😅

Have you considered that you might have aphantasia? It’s surprisingly common for how unknown it is

lpl would be amazing at visualizing stereochemistry

I think it takes 30 minutes of idleness to question 'am I missing something' and then search the bag. The problem is he completed the puzzle's goal in half that time. :)

@@markwright3161The number of times I had to tighten or remove those screws with nothing but my thumb, nail or a key I had in my pocket basically makes it a second nature by now.

Puzzle: exists Chris Ramsey: SPIN IT

Chris Ramsey: "no force required..." *smacks it on the table*

That's definitely a mathematical analysis approach. Maybe TPL is a secret mathematician?

I sat there waiting for the spinning! 🙂

All puzzles are extremely easy once you can picture everything that's going on in your head, and seeing as for most people, a lock is a puzzle in and of itself, and mark picking lawyer can like he demonstrated in the video, hold a lock in a certain way and then just know that there's some modification and vaguely what that modification is is incredibly helpful.

The other puzzle lock he did used the key as a turning tool, so I can see why he missed it.

In a way, he picked the lock keeping the rod nut inside.

He also raked the lock which was not how it was intended to be solved (you just hold it in a certain position, and turn the key).

That was EXACTLY my thought too!

especially considering additional time spent explaining us what he's doing and why

He knows that's almost certainly a record for that puzzle, and not by just a few seconds!

Classic lawyer tactic. Bills you by the minute, rounding up. ;)

I wouldn't be surprised if it was intended. It wouldn't be the first time, even on this channel - LPL did that with Titan's Treasure and it was part of the solution.

That's definitely intended, there was a similar lock puzzle with the same feature on the channel before

@@tite93 Did you watch until the end of the video? As it turns out, there was a little hex key hidden in the hem of the lock bag

@@Gammix oh yeah, I turned it off once he solved it, missed that part. Thanks for pointing it out!

@@tite93 You don't wait to hear him tell you to have a nice day?!?!

@@nb2vcxz The raking *not working* was a fluke!

Whales have two flukes.. gotta do a third try, or test for wetness..

@@nic_enc_old he raked too far an so the key was basically fully committed instead of just the raked master pins. ;D

I think so. I’ve never, EVER, seen anyone rake a lock besides on this specific channel, despite having watched many hours of puzzle solving content. It seems to me that he overthought it, all he had to do was maneuver the key so it was locked in the quarter position and slap it against his palm so the rod comes out. Multiple times he shows that the low cut on the key leaves a perfect gap between the inside and outside, for the rod to come out. The puzzle is: 1. To realize the screw needs removing 2. Remove it (other puzzles remove the screw with a key) 3. Realize the lock is affected by gravity/position 4. Realize there are set positions 5. Align the key with the unscrewed hole 6. Slap the rod out then continue as normal, the biggest hurdle being to put the shackle back on. I could be wrong, but I’m almost certain that no raking is necessary.

At what point in the video did you learn Loki saying that?

@@primalinea682 The end of the vid my friend

He already used the key to unscrew the hex plug in other puzzle locks. It was logical to assume that it's the same case.

Sorry to butt in but.… Well, that depends. On whether the "knowing" one really knows and whether the searching ones are skilled or knowledgeable themselves. Like, I'd take ten scientists specializing in oncology doing experiments in a case of a rare cancer rather than a self-important doctor who already "knows" everything. Or take law, where this principle is especially visible. Where the younger applicants are actually hardworking and cautious, and the older, experienced attorneys are so full of themselves and sure they're right they miss obvious facts. Hell, they don't even bother to ask the client about them.

@@vivvpprof Ah yes the old saying, "Better one who knows than ten who search except for when the person who knows actually doesn't know, and maybe the people searching are really good at searching." I understand your thought process but you're just dropping the point. (Edited thing: I was being snarky I'll admit to that. My apologies for it.)

Better one who knows than 10 who search. People forget those who know and those who search are the same thing in the internet age.

That's Jill's section!

It's not an external tool tho because it's literally part of the puzzle?

I don't know what is more funny, the fact that this probably can be true or the irony it becomes if it is not even near a fact. After all, he is still legally speaking a lawyer even if he now is more in the lockpicking exposing bad "security devices" and not only locks. I mean he even goes after some of the bigest lock brands there is only to expose what in his oppinion are flaws.

iirc his house locks are booby trapped to seize up permanently if picked and he has given the advice to never pick a lock you depend on, since you could break or jam it.

@@Zeldon567 it is a pain and sometimes impossible to remove a jammed broken tip of an lockpick. So naturally you can make locks unusable by trying to learn how to pick locks and you will lose many locks that way over the years.

Btw he did pick the lock to open it by raking it with the key, that means that it wouldn't have helped if he had used his own tools.

😂 Oh, that's why he is so good at picking locks 🔒

@@leslie32892 The booklet talked about knots, I assumed it meant that they was involved in some way.

So you're saying he solved the puzzle without even using all the tools at his disposal? There's another tool in the drawstring of the bag?

@@calvinmills4069 Did you watch the whole video?

And he has done that on what is to my knowledge at least to the only other puzzle lock on this channel. So he is already aware of that tactic assuming he hasn't watched any puzzle lock videos.

I honestly thought the screwdriver would be somehow artfully hidden in the design of the key itself, maybe if you held the tip at a 66.6 degree angle the sides of the key would line up appropiately or something... "Hidden hex wrench in the bag" was actually a bit disappointing to me 🤣 Just hope nobody gave the puztzle lock to someone without including the satchel 😁

Any hex screw with a provided key/lock mechanism is definitely intended to have that key used to remove it. Unless an allen wrench pops out first.

@@sourcererseven3858 that is exactly what I though, I even looked back at the key to see if there wasn't some hidden feature in the key itself. but seeing that there wasn't, and seeing that I can't use external tools, I would have done the same thing. I wouldn't even think about looking at the bag.

It is however a slightly iffy solution (in this specific instance, if it happened to be the intended one) since you have a plated brass key going into a stainless setscrew, with badly mismatched shapes, the key is bound to get chewed up with time, the setscrew head can get distorted as well, and it probably won't turn the setscrew before long. You wouldn't want a $200 puzzle to substantially degrade every time you use it. It would have indeed been more elegant if they figured something out that actually matches the shape of some feature of the the key, for example a slotted setscrew with a slot width matched to a width of something on the key with just a little tolerance. I think puzzles where key is supposed to be used as a driver come up with a better way to do it like that. With the hex driver being hidden, i suppose it's fine.

I know where my money would be.. 😂

Do you remember the unsolved locks bucket from which BosniaBill gave him locks? LPL refused two locks, knowing perfectly well why he was doing it. These were the old style and a new production of the Gerda locks. Made in Poland. These two are top-of-the-line from Gerda, but even the cheap ones are so hard to pick that nobody here in Poland bothers with non-destructive methods. In case of losing all keys to the two top locks and a card that allows ordering an additional key equals cutting off a part of the door. The next level above the Gerda Titans is the bank locks. Some are custom-made, some in a short production line, and some customized. A steel reinforced room with a steel-made heavy door is also reasonable when using 12 pins tubular Gerdas. Claimed to be the best on the market.

Not really hard to figure out that a screw sticking out is how you're supposed to open something, especially when it's one of the only 2 things you have to even focus on on the entire product...

@@DrakeOola yes, and using the tip of the key makes it more interesting. So, the hidden hex tool needn't have been included at all.

Depends, in a way he skipped a step by forcing, still in bounds but it's a stretch to call it hard mode.

Considering that piece would have been utterly useless after the initial opening it would have been more of a red herring and a distraction honestly. LPL accidentally got rid of a lot of false options this way and could focus better

Need to do more. Maybe the one lick that was not a puzzle but befuddled Bosnia bill that Gerda dead bot from hell 😁

Yes, but I would be worried about damage to the key or the screw. Metal-on-metal like that tends to leave jagged edges and damage screws, sometimes beyond the ability to be removed and inserted.

Would be nice if the hex was just on the back or tip of the key, hidden in plain sight.

Easy mode is in the bag

@@wobblysauce Maybe it's like a math book. Answers in the back in case you're struggling

@@ogi22 I think beaten most of the best locks, and he had the key! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Technically he did, he raked it lol

he already did pick it? the lock is designed to open really unpractical way and just lockpicking it won't do any difference. i think. correct me if i'm wrong.

Thanks to thousands of videos of LPL, raking was my first though lol.

I think the real clue about the hidden tool was the “contains small parts” because neither the lock nor the key are small enough to require that warning (and the internal piece that unscrews doesn’t count, precisely because it has to be unscrewed). The moment he read that warning that should have prompted him to thoroughly check the bag to see what were the “small parts”

@@jpe1 the small parts are un the lock, it is required to mention that, i thik.

Perhaps sanding and rounding off the key tip would also work

I sped it up to 2x. He speaks slowly enough that I was still able to understand everything.

Agreed. If anything, the method increased the difficulty. Then again, consider the hidden nature of the tool, indicating this was one of the intended methods. The tool may have been an optional method, or a backup method in case the key was unable to work on the screw (I.e. Being recessed too far into the lock body).

That was my thought. The key wasn’t an external tool. It counts.

What important tool was he missing? edit: nevermind....

Raking the lock with its own key is so galaxy brain

@@midn8588 Anything is a tool to LPL.
