It just has magical "3..2..1" protection. The shot that finally broke the lock had no countdown, all the rest did. Maybe it would have gone on the first shot if he hadn't warned the padlock 👾
@@cjr1881 Lol im pretty sure they hit . instead of : on accident but yeah you and a few others seem to be really on that little detail. I guess some people really like correcting people even for the tiniest thing.
I love the direction this channel is going. He's a few vids away from "welcome to lockpicking lawyer ranch, today we're going to see how many masterlocks it takes to stop a .50 cal"
This has got to be one of the best comments regarding the use of the driver, ever... No man hath put the misuse of the aforementioned utensil as well ast thou hath done, my fair brother...
Reminds me of the guy on Dumb and Dumber at the phone booth.. Starts to get upset but he's getting all excited too.. "Ohhh ho ho, he got me mad, I almost like it!"
I love that you never have an ego with your assessments. Your highly educated in this field, have all the tools and know-how at your disposal along with experience, and yet, when a lock is giving you a hard time or even starts wearing your tools, you know when to compliment the makers and admire the quality of their product, and not call dumb luck for them or tool quality on your part. it's always admirable to watch.
Mrs. Lockpickinglawyer: Honey, what's all that noise? Lockpickinglawyer: I'm making a Ramset video, dear. Mrs. Lockpickinglawyer: Okay, but why is it taking you more than 5 minutes?
@@kiritotheabridgedgod4178 obviously, one needs to use more high explosives to resolve the excessive use of high explosives. After all, once one blows the high explosives, one cannot overuse them any longer. The only problem is that then, one cannot resolve any more problems in life until one acquires more high explosives. One advantage in living in a state capitol is that one quickly learns how to process circular logic.
The takeaway lesson here seems to be to get an Abus Rock 83/80, toss the core that comes with it and install something that actually gives pickers a hard time. And then install it on a tank, because literally anything else would probably faster to breach than the lock.
Ramsets/concrete nailers are ridiculously fun. In my construction days my favorite was a 357 Magnum- could punch a 3 inch nail into concrete for housing foundations. We'd buy 357 blanks by the case.
Jeff Depends how far the guard has to travel to get there... Consider locking the service entrance to some unmanned facility in halfway into the Nevada dessert.
This is an insane display of resistance. This lock survived a very devastating sustained attack for a long time by someone who knows locks and can easily find their weak spots. Highly impressive.
Now, all wee need is something valuable enough to protect with this padlock and a structure stronger than it. So, Fort Knox to secure a mother-in-law... ;)
From a Ramset, sure. As long as it took, and as much noise as it caused, I promise you it may just be more expedient to simply use a real gun and shoot the damned thing, depending ding on the situation in which you are trying to break this monster of a lock
I'm late to the party, but this video, good Sir, made me smile the whole time. I spent my lifetime working with hardened metals and threads. Really good screws/bolts and really good threads hold an amazing amount of pressure.
My grandfather used to remove nails from walls the same way. He's just hit it from the size and send the nail flying across the room. He's good at building things, not so good at taking them apart
well ... i lock my 100 bucks bike with a 10 bucks lock, while i lock my 1500 bucks bike with a 120 bucks lock. when you expect quality, you must pay for quality
Its european padlock so it can be on european chain (like pewag) and door can be made out of thick steel. But you can easly make heavy duty hasp for this padlock that is covering this padlock completly, you puting shackle from top and body from the botom and even this type of attack like in this video would not be posible. www.yale.com.tr/en/yale/yale_com_tr/products/padlocks/outdoor-security---anchors--hasps/y345-heavy-duty-hasp-for-use-with-y123-padlocks/
Ahem, but of course "Quieter" is not a serious requirement because you'd have the owner of the property or the police right there with you while you Legally bypassed a security device due to an Emergency, Warrant, or Loss of keys.
“Considering this is point 44 magnum, the most powerful shotgun in the world, could blow your head clean off, you’ve gotta ask yourself, ‘what am I like?’”
Possibly if you modified the ramset, the tip has to be pressed in in order for the firing mechanism to activate, its purely a tool that uses the power of a bullet to force a rod into a nail for when your nailing a piece of wood into concrete. It may be used for other things but thats what I have personally used it for when mounting wall frames into concrete.
Abus is from Germany and I'm proud to say (even as an American living in Germany for most of my life), I'm proud that engineering and quality is still a great trademark of the country.
LowKey Liberty that’s how it is at the utility company and any safety infraction is instant suspension and the only thing the union can do is make the company prove the infraction with pictures
Every time there's a pop and a rattle from the basement I imagine mrs. Lockpick lawyer reading a book in a recliner by the lamp and not even bothering to look up.
The 'lack' of editing and showing us the entire process is what I really love about the LPL. He never over complicates things and makes his content for his own enjoyment as much as ours. :)
Is this a standard or common lock picking method? I have been selling and using Ramset powder-actuated fasteners for nearly 20 years and I've never seen this application. Have you ever used the red charges (stronger), purple (even stronger), white then black (strongest). Also, are you using regular pins (6mm steel penetration) or the special hardened ones (10mm steel penetration)? The hardened ones I sell are SC925 (25mm) to SC970 (70mm). Also, due to the dangers of ricochet, I strongly recommend using something to clamp those aluminium blocks together and also use something to deflect or contain any ricochets. To me, your method looks ridiculously unsafe.
There seems to be way too much energy wasted when the lock moves. On the other hand, a very solid surface with absolutely no give will create a lot of recoil and more chance of a stray pin ricocheting or the gun's drive pin or cylinder cracking.
Well it's mainly about having some fun and testing if the lock would break under real conditions. It wont be clamped to something when someone uses it to lock something.
If you were trying to attack this lock while it was in use, you wouldn't have the luxury of setting up a vice. It would be locked to something, and a lot of your shot energy would be wasted by the lock swinging on impact just like here. I believe that's the logic he operates on for these tests.
Yeah, honestly he should be wearing level 3 body armor that bomb disposal units have. One tiny small piece of metal could blind you or cut your neck open, leg arteries etc. Waaaaaaaaaaay too many ways to die with high speeds and hardened steel fragments.
@Uvuvwevwevwe Onyetenyevwe Ugwemubwem Ossas Yeah he does, but that was kind of the idea of the original person's joke. They should make a better product, yeah, but that's also why it makes the competitors look bad - They don't. Hence r/whoosh (aka the joke went over his head) If your comment was a joke, then I apologize for this rather long in comparison post. If that is the case I probably belong on that reddit too.
That's very impressive. The Ramset seems like what you use when you're interested in 'quick' rather than 'quiet', so I think it's fair to call this a fail for it even though it did defeat the lock eventually. Also something that might help with aligning the centre of a larger thing like the Ramset with a specific point would be drawing some concentric circles around the target point. That would make it easy to see if there is an offset between the tool and the target.
Jason Rios 6 in one hand, half a dozen in the other. It takes about the same amount of time to insert the charge as it takes to insert the pick and I’ve had more than one disaster lock open as soon as I wiggle the pick, so that’s debatable.
Fair enough, though that's best case scenario for the lock picking. If you averaged out the time for a particular lock I think it would take longer. For example, if you lined up 100 #3 Masterlocks and timed picking them all vs. opening them with a Ramset, I'd put money on the Ramset being faster, even with reloading. And that would be the most advantageous for the lock picks... imaging using Abus or American locks.
Impressive ramset. Mine fired three nails into concrete before it jammed faster than Spaceball One's radar never to work again. Never did finish the planned playroom in the basement with my father. Later the planned playroom became two offices. My father had since bought a new ramset. Fun fact: The yellow cartridges can send a nail through two stories into the basement. Found this out on a rainy night where my hammer broke and a tin piece of flashing was making LOUD noises when the rain hit it just outside my window. The green cartridges work just fine.
@@davidromanowski9090 Tungsten carbide doesn't give AT ALL so it would be a bad choice for something that endures that much force. More likely some kind of high Rockwell steel. Better for it to peen out over time, than crack/chip/break.
Likely a tool steel nothing too special the nail absorbs quite a bit of the shock and the force is concentrated by the nail tip. The pressure present at the nail tip is far greater than at the nail head, kinda like hydraulics, and so you can figure that pressure out by calculating the ratio of the head area over the tip area x the force at the head ... It's quite a bit
I have a very strong feeling that the one unmodified ramset nail that you shot into the Rock is what was to blame for that plate hanging on for so much longer than it should have.
