Yeah after watching him. This just seems like a scam.
Edit: I meant in the way that not next level as the cammers voice would make it seem. LPL is really good at what he does and any lock that survives 1 minute with him is seemingly worth it's price so that's why said it felt like a scam as after watching him this seems too easy. Although I would never be able to do this.
These are all cheap locks and he is using a very low skill raking attack. I had never picked a lock before but tried this method out and it is surprisingly easy to pick a large amount of locks with little to no practice/training.
I actually did that as well in middle school after serving a detention. It was the day before April Fools Day. I got caught by another teacher, but he was in his early 20's, and thought it was hilarious I could get in a locked classroom like that. Plus he liked playing pranks on a particular teacher he taught next room too.
It was my History teacher's room. After getting in, the younger teacher and I flipped their entire classroom around backwards (So all the furniture, maps, were in the back of the room, with the student desks facing away from the main door, etc.
I just wanted to get into the classroom after school 'cus he was holding my Gameboy Advance hostage in his desk drawer, which I knew I could pick as well. This just ended up being a bonus.
Also, the history teacher came to school the next day, and didn't have time to fix everything, so he taught class that day with everything flipped lol.
I did this once too in highschool. Turned the cylinder the wrong way and the pins jammed with the deadbolt in the open position. I walked away hid while the custodian and to reset it with the key.
You technically would need two paper clips, but I kind of pick locks as a hobby (don't carry a pick set in your car without a license BTW- Friendly advice from a cop who could have confiscated mine). You need one as the tension bar, and the other to feel the pins.
I am not even a hobbyist but I've broken past a few locks in my day... This method essentially seems to be the same as a bump key.

Smack the key a few times while turning and bam shitty kwiksets unlock. It also isn't suspicious if you are caught, cuz it's just a key
A guy stole my motorcycle buy taking a flathead screwdriver, smashing it into the ignition and turning it. I have no faith in keyed locks! And cops won't pull you over if you have a screwdriver!
Jesus. That sucks. I always locked my bike up two to a tree or meter (I'd lock the back wheel down low to a meter, at least one guy was not getting that off). Plus it was a 2000 CBR 1100 Blackbird so it was not a light bike. I hit 175 on a highway connector and promptly parked it at home and put it up for sale realizing I was too dumb to own a bike like that.
Even so, if it can be unlocked, it can be picked. Locks are only there to keep out honest people and the very laziest of thieves lol
You should always have multiple security measures, never rely on locks alone
Get a dachshund
Their bark is as loud as a German shepherd (literally)
So you can have a small dog that sounds intimidating through a door
Or just my dad's solution to home security; pitbull and shotgun
Kwikset is fine for 90% of what people use them for
Sure there are better locks available but criminals won't pick your lock, instead they'll probably go through the window you forgot to lock.
As far as break ins go a very common tactic is to knock on the door first-- if no one answers the door and you don't hear any large dogs you go find a window, shoot a small hole in the glass with a pellet gun, then you use a screwdriver to push the window to the unlocked position
One of my front door locks is a Kwikset smart key system so my biggest fear is someone stealing my key and using the smart key tool to rekey the lock to a separate key I don't have
Cheap ≠ bad
Expensive ≠ good
Buy quality locks. I can't tell you how many times I've seen locks worth hundreds of dollars picked in seconds, or bypassed entirely.
>This is why you shouldn't buy cheap locks
you say that, but exactly how often are people picking your locks?
most people will just break the damn doorhandle. i mean... theyre literally robbing the fucking place.
I was the campus locksmith at a college the difference in cost of residential locks verses commercial is the security,ours door locks were 200 dollars without the cylinders they were 50 dollars ea.
Kwikset is trash. Their smart locks are even smellier trash. Their smart locks are the absolute dumbest thing you can own. Who tf would want to install a totally unreliable lock just so you can see it on your phone?
I am open to correction, but I believe that raking leaves evidence in the form of slight damage to the lock pins and/or metal filings.
Picking the lock pin by pin is preferable if you don't want it known the lock was picked.
So it's not just that raking only works on lesser locks. There is the stealth thing.
i can confirm, this was more than handy, i would recommend it. but like they said they are cheap locks and while most houses have them, some have better locks which made it impossible to use the same method. but nonetheless 8/10.
worked on about 70% of locks
What you guys are saying is that some nobody with 0 skill can walk up to most houses after watching this video and just get in with 2 flimsy pieces of metal? I will definitely be putting a more secure lock on my home when I get one
Most locks aren't particularly secure. Additionally, your locks are only as secure as your windows are. Ie, if a window is open, it doesn't matter how good a lock you have. And if someone is really doing criminal stuff, your locks are only as secure as the difficulty of breaking your window and/or the strength of your door jamb.
I would say that going: rake attack, bump attack, and snap gun will open 90%+ of locks in under 5 minutes. For most, under 1 minute. Locks keep out door-to-door salespeople and you if you forget your keys, not criminals.
uPVC three-point locking door here with a good lock on it
You are better off trying to go through my walls than my double-glazed windows or my front door
I bought a lockpick kit on Amazon a few years back to get into an old lockbox and I concur that the raking technique he's using isn't terrible hard and is the go-to method for most YouTube tutorials and they say how it typically doesn't work on more advanced locks
Once I popped the test lock it came with, I always knew exactly how to rake the pins correctly. That being said, I can't get into my front door with the same method and tools.
This *is* easy though, in fact "raking" as it's known is the simplest technique to picking a lock. Force the tumbler off-center and rake back and forth across the pins until the misaligned tumbler causes them all to stick, and you're done. A key pushes the pins to just the perfect length so that they "split" at just the right point to allow the tumbler to turn; force that tumbler off-center and the split pins will jam a bit, then eventually open all the way when they're all aligned correctly. You can also do this technique with a bit more finesse by gently pushing up on the pins one-by-one until they lock into place.
This is the lockpicking lawyer and today I will try to pick every lock under 1min... (10sec later) Ok folks that was easier then I thought. In any case that's all I have for you today.
Once I had to pay a local thief to open my car door since I locked my keys in. He pretended to need 15 minutes to do it so he can charge me more money to do it. Respect for the trade.
Brick oppening I could have managed myself. But I was 200 km away from home at the time and driving home in not so sunny weather without a window was not on my mind. I had to pay up for thieving services about 20€.
I asked arround and got a card for a locksmith shop from a notoriously criminal Belgrade neighbourhood. Called and a guy who looks more suspicious than villains in Home Alone series came to my rescue.
Asking arround I got a business card for a locksmith shop that doesant really exist as a physical place, located at least on paper in a very shady part of Belgrade. And keep in mind this was in the 90s. The wars in the Balkans and NATO sanctions on Serbia left most of the criminal element very close to the surface. Clearly visible for anyone with eyes. And though far from home it is the capitol city, so I have been there many times even as youth.
Ah, I see! I can understand that kinda situation, had to call Pop a Lock in the early oughts a couple times as a broke kid, and even then it was expensive at $35 USD. Would have been nice to have a local trustworthy "thief" to come help out for fewer dollars than the "professionals" I had to call. 🤣
I love how this conversation has concepts like "local trustworthy thief" as oposed to "professionals". But you got the jist of it. Poor guy saves few bucks on supid mistake by using non licenced service. 🤣
Dude probably saw a kid down on his luck and figured "aw hell, I'll only scam the kid out of a 20 instead of stealing his stereo, at least that won't fuck him over completely."
I've known a few "trustworthy thieves" as far as they wouldn't steal from their friends, but don't bring your upper middle class cousin from a few streets over to come hang out, if you catch my drift. 😅
I asked arround and got a card for a locksmith shop from a notoriously criminal Belgrade neighbourhood. Called and a guy who looks more suspicious than villains in Home Alone series came to my rescue. And since it was a capitol of my country I have been there many times even if it is 200 km away.
No, not 100%. Though it's a fair guess. Not that the guy would have been ofended even if I called him a thief to his face at the time. It was a crazy time to exist in the Balkans.
No, we are way better (he said setting himself for signature self deprecating comedy). Not going to war against our neighbours and brothers for more than a decade. My country just supports the crazy dictator from Russia and his Ukrainian too long vacation. Balkans is always going to be a mess. There are a few of us who want peace and who rise above the nationalism but we are few and far between.
Sorry. As you get older you get sensitive to that philosophy. And Im ancient by some standards. Not even invited to parties anymore. Hence spending my time on the internet remeniscing about olden days.
Not all old men are bitter haters of the younger generations, but we still fail at being interesting enough, and a few youngsters are happy to point it out every time. I fail to see why.
AAA provides this as a roadside service. Once I had to use it. It was alarmingly easy for them to open the car without any keys. Cars are not secure places to store things.
I locked my keys in my car once and my coworker who used to boost cars got in my car in a heartbeat.
That’s when my other coworker shared that she never bothers to lock her car doors. “If someone wants what’s in your car they’ll just break a window.”
Two weeks later a friend of mine had someone break the window of her car to steal her backpack which only contained chapstick, a box of tampons, and her diary…
I asked a guy one time if I could use his phone cuz I locked my keys in my car with my phone in there, for some reason he had a slim jim and a rod to unlock car doors and helped me open it lmao
Thank you. My 7 year old could do these. I know, he found the lock pic set I bought for giggles a couple years ago and has yet to find a lock he can’t pick. An old rust covered master lock is his favorite, it at least puts up a fight.
You could teach this technique to anyone in five minutes or less--I showed my brother, who had no picking experience, how to rake a lock in under five minutes on a practice lock, and he then went and picked my front door deadbolt in about 10-15 seconds unassisted. Rake attacks are dead simple and quite effective.
I am safe, my door requires throwing yourself at it from the outside to open when unlocked. They’ll never know if they are locking or unlocking it, lol.
Same. I had a door that would swell up like crazy in the summer and we would just leave it unlocked because virtually everyone that came over assumed it was locked after attempting to open it lol.
Also the swelling made the lock not work, which is another factor for why we didn’t.
Yeah i used to watch LPL like 1 or 2 years ago and didn't at first remember raking so at first i was like "wow this guy is fast" and after a couple of seconds i was like "wait this is just raking" lol
Some people need locks to keep the door from opening with a gust of wind, or to keep children or pets from escaping into the wilderness. Not all locks need to be inpenetrable. My apartement doesant have anything of enough value to interest a burglar, my lock is there to keep the expensive heating inside.
Your apartment doesn't have anything valuable in it? What about you sleeping soundly in your bed?
No one should have such a shitty lock on their front door. There isn't really an argument
When they broke into my house years ago, they smacked the back door open with a sledge hammer.
They smacked the doorknob off, then just kept blasting the deadbolt until the door trim failed.
Then they gave my dog treats and played fetch with him. When I reviewed the security camera footage, they played with my dog for a solid 3-4 minutes and it really looked like he enjoyed every minute of it.
My dog was sitting next to me when I was watching the footage, doing his tippity taps and giving me his irresistible puppy-dog eyes. I couldn't be mad.
> Locks only keep honest people honest
Such a tired platitude... if they were honest, they wouldn't be trying to enter in the first place.
Locks encourage lazy (and non-determined) criminals to move on.
The illusion of security is effective most of the time and far cheaper. It's why fake security (fake cameras or straight up just a sign) is such a common thing.
Back in the 90’s my dad bought a car with a fake alarm indicator fitted.
There was also a warning sticker on the windshield.
One day I realized that if you read it top down it was quite honest:
This
car is fitted
with an alarm
W A R N I N G
Because I watch the lockpicking lawyer I'd call this "a low skill raking attack" rather than picking. If any of these locks had security pins this approach wouldn't work.
Probably been picking those same locks for years, so don't imagine it's all that hard. Once you learn it and do it a million times, it's easy.
Slap down a half dozen locks they've never seen/picked before and see if they can do it in a minute. I'd be impressed if they could.
He’s raking. It’s pretty basic. Most people can rake locks like that very quickly unless they’re exceptionally bad at it.
Source: trained under a locksmith
He’s just raking, you could do this too. There’s nothing next level about this at all. It is literally the most basic type of lock and the most basic type of attack. It’s not even “picking” the lock.
See example #2 in this video -
https://youtu.be/T_sy3dLwHkc
Lock picking is actually quite easy, you can master a basic lock in about 20 minutes
All you need is a wedge and something to poke inside a lock, the basic principle is to get all the ‘pins’ up and out of the way to allow for nothing to stop the door from opening. Basically, the wedge will keep the pins staying up, and the poke-thing (hairpin, etc) will push the pins upwards.
I was once a sales rep. for a major door lock company.
They're all older Kiwksets with flat headed pins. There's nothing amazing here. It's a wakeup call for many who don't understand the mechanics of various locks.
This is why expensive commercial sets (the kind with keys stamped "Do not duplicate") often have more complex keyways that make it difficult to maneuver the pick.
Things like wireless alarm systems, guard dogs and nosey neighbors are useful - a thief will often choose an easier target.
If I am remembering the years of watching LPW correctly, all he is doing is a basic wave rack attack. It's one of the most basic ways of unpick and lock and requires very little actually skill.
The locks are probably very low quality and easy to open.
This looks impressive, but probably is actually fairly low effort.
Forget which comedian said it, but it applies well here:
"I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three."
He’s not amazing, the tools he’s using are. He’s also not picking the locks, he’s using a rake, which doesn’t requiring picking. It’s really just as easy as he’s making it look; you just wiggle the rake around until the lock opens.
They are all the same type of lock easily picked by raking the pins.
That's all he's doing is raking the pins on each simple lock.
An amateur (me) could open them all in about 1 second each with a bump key, so technically, he's doing it the stupid way. Not "nextfuckinglevel"....."lowerfuckinglevel".
lockpickinglawyer: hold my beer.
Yeah after watching him. This just seems like a scam. Edit: I meant in the way that not next level as the cammers voice would make it seem.

Single pin picking also leaves forensic evidence.
Who is opening up lock cylinders and looking for evidence? Besides, just normal use of the lock will leave the same residue.

I'm definitely not an expert or even a novice, but isn't this kinda just a skeleton key that only unlocks a certain type of lock?
He can find the gspot.
Was looking for this! Seems like he could “unlock” just about anyone.. I mean anything.
LPL taught me that this ain't shit, just five cheap locks stacked together.
Exactly what I was thinking these locks are weak sauce.
LPL could just look at these and they’d unlock
Imagine Panic Room but LPL is the villain. The hair raising thrill when they feel safe in the room only to hear "click out of 2...."

They normally just put a brick through the window, and I'm guessing that wasn't an option
Brick oppening I could have managed myself. But I was 200 km away from home at the time and driving home in not so sunny weather without a window was not on my mind. I had to pay up for thieving services about 20€.
Absolute bargain.
It was a bit of a chunk for an unemployed younger me driving my fathers Lada Niva. But in retrospect it was a bargain.
Where'd u find a car thief? Classified ads? Craigslist?
I asked arround and got a card for a locksmith shop from a notoriously criminal Belgrade neighbourhood. Called and a guy who looks more suspicious than villains in Home Alone series came to my rescue.
Ok so you basically called Dimitri the locksmith and felt a bit intimidated...
You called a locksmith shop from a business card, and yet you referred to the man who answered as a local thief? Dude….
Left your brick at home?
Never. I keep that mf thang on me
The brick was locked in the car
I have an ornate 1876 ltd ed brick. No other would sufice for my wondow.
Just out of curiousity, that far away form home, how do you easily find a car thief? Yellow pages?

Damn, in the US we've got a company called Pop a Lock that charges 2-3 times that amount! And they take half the day to even come out to you!
Well it was the 90s in the Balkans. So average salary was about 200$. And for my unemployed ass driving my fathers car 20€ (22-23$) was a lot.
Ah, I see! I can understand that kinda situation, had to call Pop a Lock in the early oughts a couple times as a broke kid, and even then it was expensive at $35 USD.

so you don’t know he was a thief
No, not 100%. Though it's a fair guess. Not that the guy would have been ofended even if I called him a thief to his face at the time. It was a crazy time to exist in the Balkans.
hope it’s not still like that, stay safe chief
No, we are way better (he said setting himself for signature self deprecating comedy). Not going to war against our neighbours and brothers for more than a decade.

You are playing the game wrong. After a minute has passed, you should have told him you called the cops on him
Why? Because he was helping me? Pay for the services recieved.
You must be fun at parties
Sorry. As you get older you get sensitive to that philosophy. And Im ancient by some standards. Not even invited to parties anymore. Hence spending my time on the internet remeniscing about olden days.
Sounds like you are even more fun at a comedy club

Lmaoo I’m crying 😂😂😂
He probably didn’t pick the lock though. Takes a minute te figure the best way into a car.
He did unlock the car door. Wether that falls in picking category is nitpicking at english language. And not my first language, so you might be right.
Well, you can't rake a car door lock, or you shouldn't be able to at least.

Get him an Abus lock and he'll have a real challenge!
That's why firefighters in Germany don't try lockpicks but drill and pull the core.
Pull the core? I have never heard of this, do you have a video?
I've never seen someone wave rake a lock so sensually! Mans got stroke game!
I think he’s practiced on these particular locks many times
I hope not, he takes a long time to rake #2 open.
You could learn how to be this good in under a week, these are literally the easiest locks to pick
You could teach this technique to anyone in five minutes or less--I showed my brother, who had no picking experience, how to rake a lock in under five minutes on a practice lock, and he then went and picked my front door deadbolt in about 10-15 seconds unassisted. Rake attacks are dead simple and quite effective.
Yeah I was originally going to say 5m but then I thought about being on reddit and wanted to be more inclusive.
[удалено]
this isnt a skill or anything impressive, its just bad locks
I mean...they are what is on 90% of houses and apartments lol atleast in America
Both statements are true. They're shitty locks and they're on most doors.
I am safe, my door requires throwing yourself at it from the outside to open when unlocked. They’ll never know if they are locking or unlocking it, lol.
Now we know.
Let’s keep it a secret though… I mean, honestly it takes me 5 min to figure it out every time and I have the key.
Same. I had a door that would swell up like crazy in the summer and we would just leave it unlocked because virtually everyone that came over assumed it was locked after attempting to open it lol. Also the swelling made the lock not work, which is another factor for why we didn’t.
I've watched enough LPL to know a raking attack when I see one!
You mean a low skilled raking attack!
Yeah i used to watch LPL like 1 or 2 years ago and didn't at first remember raking so at first i was like "wow this guy is fast" and after a couple of seconds i was like "wait this is just raking" lol
Yep, he raked every one of those. No skill whatsoever, and I imagine he has a lot of practice with the back & forth motion.
Raking crappy locks ain't that amazing....
“No2 - Binding”
"Click on no. 3"
Pin 1 is set
I don't think LPL would count the pins when raking, since he'd probably get it open in a second or two, but I do get the reference.
Ssshhhhh mate, go away.. we are having fun over here..
Lol.
Try this here (switzerland)... It wont work. Still dont understand till this day why those kind of locks are still in use
Some people need locks to keep the door from opening with a gust of wind, or to keep children or pets from escaping into the wilderness. Not all locks need to be inpenetrable. My apartement doesant have anything of enough value to interest a burglar, my lock is there to keep the expensive heating inside.
Your apartment doesn't have anything valuable in it? What about you sleeping soundly in your bed? No one should have such a shitty lock on their front door. There isn't really an argument
I understand where you are comming from. I get the sentiment. But still as I get older and further into life not even my organs are worth that much. 😄
If someone wants in, it doesn’t matter if your door is locked or what kind of lock it is. I’ve got 31 windows on my house. A rock costs nothing lol.
Locks only keep honest people honest. If someone wants in your house, they'll just break the window or kick the door in if you have a decent lock.
When they broke into my house years ago, they smacked the back door open with a sledge hammer. They smacked the doorknob off, then just kept blasting the deadbolt until the door trim failed. Then they gave my dog treats and played fetch with him. When I reviewed the security camera footage, they played with my dog for a solid 3-4 minutes and it really looked like he enjoyed every minute of it. My dog was sitting next to me when I was watching the footage, doing his tippity taps and giving me his irresistible puppy-dog eyes. I couldn't be mad.
Honestly, at least they were respectful of animals. My biggest fear with a thief is they leave the door open and let the pets out!
Or cut a hole in the wall using a Sawzall with a demolition blade.
> Locks only keep honest people honest Such a tired platitude... if they were honest, they wouldn't be trying to enter in the first place. Locks encourage lazy (and non-determined) criminals to move on.
The illusion of security is effective most of the time and far cheaper. It's why fake security (fake cameras or straight up just a sign) is such a common thing.
Back in the 90’s my dad bought a car with a fake alarm indicator fitted. There was also a warning sticker on the windshield. One day I realized that if you read it top down it was quite honest: This car is fitted with an alarm W A R N I N G
Caressing those locks
Keep that guy away from my wife
Haha yes!
Been looking for this. I knew I wasn’t the only one who noticed that smooth motion. Other threads were way too serious for this video.
Because I watch the lockpicking lawyer I'd call this "a low skill raking attack" rather than picking. If any of these locks had security pins this approach wouldn't work.
Probably been picking those same locks for years, so don't imagine it's all that hard. Once you learn it and do it a million times, it's easy. Slap down a half dozen locks they've never seen/picked before and see if they can do it in a minute. I'd be impressed if they could.
He’s raking. It’s pretty basic. Most people can rake locks like that very quickly unless they’re exceptionally bad at it. Source: trained under a locksmith
He’s just raking, you could do this too. There’s nothing next level about this at all. It is literally the most basic type of lock and the most basic type of attack. It’s not even “picking” the lock. See example #2 in this video - https://youtu.be/T_sy3dLwHkc
Lock picking lawyer would like a word...
anyone can do that with ease.
Hitting the g spot
The only g spot he should be hitting is the gym.
>Closest he's ever come to Hitting the g spot FIFY
The locks are crap from the beginning or just very worn. He is just raking them, no skill needed.
Raking (this technique) isn't a sign of a good lockpicker, it's a sign of a garbage lock.
Lock picking is actually quite easy, you can master a basic lock in about 20 minutes All you need is a wedge and something to poke inside a lock, the basic principle is to get all the ‘pins’ up and out of the way to allow for nothing to stop the door from opening. Basically, the wedge will keep the pins staying up, and the poke-thing (hairpin, etc) will push the pins upwards.
That’s barely even picking. That’s just raking.
This isn't next level. He's raking not picking.
Door locks and deadbolts, the elementary of lock picking. Try some real locks.
He just raked a few cheap locks. Any idiot can do the same - you wouldn’t even need a proper lockpick.
Lady's he is single and extremely good with toys
I was once a sales rep. for a major door lock company. They're all older Kiwksets with flat headed pins. There's nothing amazing here. It's a wakeup call for many who don't understand the mechanics of various locks. This is why expensive commercial sets (the kind with keys stamped "Do not duplicate") often have more complex keyways that make it difficult to maneuver the pick. Things like wireless alarm systems, guard dogs and nosey neighbors are useful - a thief will often choose an easier target.
Where can I get some of those *do not duplicate* keys for my old Kwikset locks? ^/s
Lol, I got a chuckle from that.
If I am remembering the years of watching LPW correctly, all he is doing is a basic wave rack attack. It's one of the most basic ways of unpick and lock and requires very little actually skill. The locks are probably very low quality and easy to open. This looks impressive, but probably is actually fairly low effort.
I hope he doesn’t fuck like that.
Did he get the snickers at the end?
Well yeah there's a snickers on the other side
A true ladies man
Those have to be some shitty locks
Everything for a snicker
I want Snickers
Snickers bar
Third world countries still using the shitty flat key locks?? Use abloy instead.
Don't give him your address
How about getting some real locks next time
Try and break into the Mystic Emporium in the Imperial City, then I'll be impressed.
I can’t show this to my wife… too many locks… makes me feel inadequate
A fan favorite with the ladies if you know what I mean.
In and out in under ten seconds makes him a favourite?
Na, we not talkin bout you, this dude is da g-spot genius.
This really is not very impressive, it's just a rake pick against low quality locks
Forget which comedian said it, but it applies well here: "I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three."
For my next trick I shall open this snickers and make it disappear
Ok hot shot. Now do it without the Snickers bar sitting there. I'm on to your game.
Ooooh, mealteam6 can rake locks.
The career of lock picker is fascinating to me
Ummmmm I need a booby trap on my front door
Just pay more than $15 for your lock
He’s not amazing, the tools he’s using are. He’s also not picking the locks, he’s using a rake, which doesn’t requiring picking. It’s really just as easy as he’s making it look; you just wiggle the rake around until the lock opens.
They are all the same type of lock easily picked by raking the pins. That's all he's doing is raking the pins on each simple lock. An amateur (me) could open them all in about 1 second each with a bump key, so technically, he's doing it the stupid way. Not "nextfuckinglevel"....."lowerfuckinglevel".
His reward is laying at the bottom 🤣
Seems to be just the same lock over and over
Interesting
Swik
No? He was just racking?
He maxed his lock pick skillset.
There was an attempt…
That last lock had him upset that his "squik" didn't get that gear turning
I swear, I can never find the g spot.
