It was a pleasure watching you solving this puzzle lock! Your knowledge and experience with locks made it look so easy but from my own experience I know it's definitely not! Therefore, very well done! Glad you enjoyed it!
Too be fair you were kinda asking for it sending a lock puzzle to the guy who knows locks better then most of us know how to breath. xD Admittedly from hearing how the keys work for this type of lock makes me realize it would probably take me a while just to get the key right. Seems like it gets easier afterwards.
Mr.Puzzle Thanks again for sending this my way. I couldn’t agree more that my intimate knowledge of locks played a key role in my success... a good analogy is making a maze out of my childhood home. I know it too well for it to be a fair test. That said, it was still a great deal of fun!
@@KnightMirkoYo not really no, usually he exploits a very obvious design flaw and picks the lock in seconds, but with puzzle locks that's not really possible.
That's the Dunning-Kruger Effect. It goes both ways. While stupid people are so stupid that they think themselves smart, smart people are aware of how much there is that they don't know, and therefore become very humbled in the face of their expertise. Making broad, sweeping generalizations and pretending everything is easy is not what smart people do. Smart people always proceed extra cautiously, second guessing everything along the way, and sometimes going into 'too much' nuance. People who think they know everything usually know very little about anything, and those that show aptitude while not boasting about their success usually know their area pretty well. If you use these behaviors as a guideline you can pretty easily tell what kinds of people you should listen to and what kinds you should ignore. All else being equal it's a good indicator.

But seriously, I thought of most of those steps before they were shown. Wasn't sure if one should stick that key in there without knowing how to get out though.
Ok can we just take a moment to appreciate the fact that this guy has little to no puzzle solving experience but still cracked an "advanced puzzle" based on his sheer knowledge of locks alone....wow
Well, picking a lock basically is solving a puzzle. With the exception that you have to find a way to solve that was never intended to be there. While a puzzle lock has an intended way of solving.
It’s impressive but not surprising. The guy is a master in his field of study, which just so happens to be on devices that are designed to be difficult to open. He might not seek out puzzles specifically but lock making/picking is just about the closest thing we have to a practical application of puzzles in everyday life.
Making the puzzle a lock puzzle was probably to there detriment, if they did it in some other form I would think it would take longer it doesn’t help that he has the same model lock as the puzzle either.
This guy is insanely smart. You can tell he realized what those ridges are without even having looked at them for the second time. Very, very intelligent
Now, as many have noticed, LPL is extremely skilled in opening locks and in explaining their structure. But what is REALLY disconcerting about this evidently extremely skilled idividual is that he seems to remember both the number and the content of each of his thousand of videos.
This is the first or second video og his that I watch, and I must say, its really freaking clever of him to have them numbered from the start, it makes it a billion times easier to find a specific one, as it can be hard to find a video on the name alone, as there can be identically named ones, but a number is easier to remember
These guys are forgetting my man is rocking a 16" Johnson but understand never to insert past 8" as it can cause damage. He knows what he's doing. He has the hardware for over-insertion, but the skill necessary to avoid it. Ain't never damaged no lock by being to rough - whether with that key-way or that shackle - he operates it just right for perfect function.
Imagine being in an escape room with LPL: “Your exercise is to finde the key to this door to …” LPL: “I’m using top of the keyway tension with a standard hook in 18 thousands. Click on 1, 2 is lose, 3 is binding, nice click out of 4,…” “No you should find the key…” LPL “Aaand we got it open. It is very clear that this lock offers very little security and is nothing that I would recommend.”
@@hornitako7006 "Put together the captain's code to open this gate" LPL: "Long sloppy chain.... a cheap combination padlock... That's a Master Lock #175! I Could bypass it with a shiv, but that's no fun.... It's inner works is made mostly out of Zinc." "Wait, So you'll play along then?.... Read the Captain's Logs to...." LPL: "You! grab some bricks. You! Gather all the dry wood, rags and paper you can find. Anyone got a lighter? Let's build a makeshift blast furnace. Melt it's locking pin."
Or he could tell Mrs. LPL that there's a coupon for four free pints of Cherry Garcia hidden in the lock body, run outside, and wait for the explosions to stop.
Mustafa Munshid the lock picking lawyer almost constantly says bad things about locks so if he were to say something good, it means its something really good.
I feel like he was aware that the 2 of those bars was very intentional, but he wanted to do things thoroughly anyway before moving on to the next step.
He took a while to work out the two rod and the spring thing, I’m proud to say I’d thought of it well before him. But as someone else said, he was exploring the lock thoroughly and methodically, which probably comes from being a lock picker rather than puzzler because mucking it up is not really an option.
Puzzles are a different thing but if it's made in an environment youre familiar with they become a lot easier (though still not trivial if it's a good puzzle)
As a follower of both channels, I am impressed that you were able to completely skip the step of unscrewing the end of the shackle to reveal the push rod for the tiny round hole at the bottom. Next level solving there!!!
To be fair to Mr. Puzzle, LPL's comprehensive knowledge of locks, and this lock in particular meant he was quickly able to zoom in on what is different from a normal version of the lock and how they must have altered it. Of course at the end of the day, it is still just a lock.
I wouldnt say that Mr.Puzzle is the sharpest knife in the box either. Feels like he's intentionally making his videos longer by not solving puzzles as fast as he can most of the time.
Björn Dahlberg puzzel solving channels are a scam just to waste your time, I’d solve all of those by brute forcing it in 30 seconds and it will magically open itself without actually breaking because im weak af
@@mystic_spider Not quite, shinu means to die. In this conjugation it literally means you are already dying, although this quote of Fist of the North Star is translated as: You are already dead in a form that is considered quite rude, especially when prefixed with the insulting "omae wa" ,But "you are already unlocked" would indeed be more fitting here.
So right now folks were corruently being gunned down in Siberia. Luckily for me, I’ve managed to get the launch code, and also knocked one of the guards out for his gun.
He was doing a tutorial/analyzing for us all. If he just shut up and focus on speeding the process, i bet he would beat the game in less than 3 minutes
Dear Mr. LPL, I just wanted to tell you that strangely and unexpectedly, your videos have taught me a lot of valuable skills, but also somehow gave me a lot of confidence and drive in some of my lowest times ever. (In the last year, I finally figured out how to leave a brain washed, and extremely abusive relationship that I didnt see a way out of for a long time.) Watching your videos I think was the perfect combo of distracting, informative, and confidence boosting, but also made me feel safe too. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you do!
I feel silly about this but I thought about using the two thingies at the same time to pull the string the moment I saw it, and when you later did just that I was so proud of myself 😭
"He also asks me to record part of the solving process. I'm not gonna do that; I'm going to record the entire solving process." He had us in the first half, not gonna lie.
There are usually comments about LPL breaking into your house and hearing 'nothing on 1,2 a click on 3' etc etc. But ask yourself this, would you open the door and greet him or let him have fun getting the door open himself?
It's neat when something that was introduced at the beginning of a story plays a major role in the end of the story. The human mind likes that kind of thing.
Titan's Treasure Puzzle Lock: I am a very clever lock puzzle. He wont be able to solve me, right? Titan lock from LPL's collection: Oh my sweet summer child...
What I learned today: A novelty puzzle lock keeps LPL out for longer than any other lock I recall lol. Though to be fair he could have removed what it secured as soon as he turned the barrel. Interesting though. Using just that one part of the puzzle you could keep out anyone that doesn't know it's a puzzle lock. The grub screw confounding the keyway would make thieves think it was a broken padlock more likely than not. If you were to instead use a steel pin in place of the grub screw, brazed with brass to match the padlock and make it a reasonably good fit, then it would be practically invisible, but would slide out if the way when you touched it with a magnet, unblocking the cylinder and allowing you to use the key...or pick it yourself lol.
LOCKS FROM LOCK MAKERS ARE SHITTY . LPL wants them to pick up their game . The only puzzle is why they make them . ( saying for money / profit isn't the right answer , it's to rip off the customer instead of being ripped off by the thief your ripped off by the " criminal company " )
He pwned this faster than any puzzler I've seen. Please do a puzzle channel! Or even just puzzle locks on this channel! You always explain so well and do them hella quick! Your lock picking and lawyer brain helps with puzzles man. I would really love to watch you do puzzle.
As a gunsmiths This gave me some ultra satisfaction figuring out that detent pin, which can be found in many common firearms. This is that good shit right here.
I love how you immediately recognised any non standard changes and intuitively dismissed any non relevant aspects until their designed intention were necessary for steps. Very methodical and logical. Well done and a very entertaining video showcasing your intimate knowledge of the original lock
LawaTheTofu he likes that he looked for differences between the standard lock and this puzzle version, liked that he didn’t think much about irrelevant features until the time came to address them, thought it was smart, and thought this video was a good show of how well he knows the standard lock. I don’t know why he had to say that in a word salad, but he did.
The context is kinda different. Locks try to force you to follow certain rules so there's more room for lateral thinking to bypass those rules, especially if you use tools. A puzzle makes you agree to follow certain rules so the clever aspects of design around those rules are more prominent when you go through the process of solving it. In theory a lot of well designed locks on this channel are pretty clever if you were to follow the exact instructions of their intended usage - but that's not what lock picking is about. So there aren't as many opportunities to talk about them being clever. And regardless of all that I'm also pretty sure he's described some lock designs (or parts of them) as clever before.
@@klausbrinck2137 well no, I can see him being not the best at puzzles, but the comfort zone this is empty, it’s like making a maze out of your childhood home, you know it so well that it’s not a challenge , and here, he’s such a lock expert that he was explaining how it was made as he was doing it
I can't tell you how many times I've seen "the lock picking lawyer could open that lock without solving the puzzle" on Mr. Puzzle and Chris Ramsey's comment section, when they do lock puzzles.
I've seen a few channels solve this puzzle, but this is the first time I've heard the line "now given what I know about the insides of these locks." Wonderful!
Could you imagine a treasure chest where they open the lock to get the treasure from the chest its locking, never one considering the most valuable item will be inside the lock. That would be one twist for a movie or story
LPL *walks on in and pulls out the same lock* you see the differences here are that the lock body has a small slot on the side unlike the regular model A-47b which was made back in the 1200s so therefore if we take one of the coins and place it in it and we have the lock body disassembled and there is a Gold nug inside
I remember watching an anime that, someone broke into a rich man's house to still money. When the thief enters the safe, he discovers the inner wall of the safe is fake, and the gold bars are behind the fake inner wall. The total value of the gold bars are much higher than the cash it contains.
@@swordsmancs It's not about wrecking it. It's about finding a way to manipulate the mechanics of the device. Banging it against a surface would briefly force the internal components to move as far as they can in that direction, which would in this example momentarily compress the spring and clear the path for the shackle to be removed from the lock. Of course in this case it's against the rules, but it's not about just breaking the damn thing, there's a valid logic there.
"This is the LockPickingLawyer" ...? "This is the LockPickingLawyer" ???? "This is the LockPickingLawyer" ... "Why is this lock not springing open in fear?"
This is maybe my favorite of your videos so far! Outside of your comfort zone, yet your domain knowledge is so extensive that you can solve the puzzle almost immediately! Lovely to watch :D and the “oh” at 7:10 when the last piece clicked for you was great :) thanks, and hope to see you extending your comfort zone again!
One thing that is great about the LPL is how he explains his thoughts. I can really immerse myself into his process of solving a lock because of how he explains what he is looking at and thinking about it.
4:02: "When I put this in, I should be careful not to over insert it. " *pushes it as far in as it can go with the tip of his finger* The makers of this Puzzle: "This guy transcends us!"
You can easily revitalize cold fries by frying them again in oil. You don't need to deep-fry, just put a little in the pan, heat, and toss the fries in. It makes a HUGE difference vs. microwaving them.
@@jonahdervin7233 See here: This one is good for when you're drunk, or just a regular time of dudes, or even impress a lady. Cream cheese usually comes in 1-pound packages. Sour cream in 1-pound tubs. Butter in 1/4-pound sticks. So this is easy to remember. So you put a stick of butter in a pot and turn up the heat to medium. You want it to melt fairly fast but not to hot it'll scorch. Throw in the bar of cream cheese and break it up so it melts faster, and keep stirring. When the cream cheese is melted, drain a can of artichoke hearts and dump the hearts in the pot, and get those hot. Add the tub of sour cream and mix it all up. Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Then, to get the consistency to even out, add a few spoonfuls of grated parmesan cheese. The cheap stuff in the plastic cylinder actually works better than fancy shredded parm. This is really yummy as a dip with just tortilla chips, but I like pita chips with it too. The next step on this dip recipe is adding a little spinach with the artichokes. I like keeping a block of frozen spinach in the fridge, and add a thumb-tip size chunk. You don't need much. You can use canned spinach but you'll waste the rest of the can because you don't need much. And you CAN use fresh spinach but you have to cook it down in a little butter first.
2:11 I love the confidence when he says "folks I may be in trouble here" . It sounds like he is saying "get a load of this idiot thinking he can stop me" Shoutout to Mr. Puzzle though for the great work
