"We don't need no stinkin' key!" -- Bosnian Bill Bill got me into lock picking with his videos. After that he sent me care package, at no charge, with easy locks, a custom pinable training lock, and some not-too-hard challenge locks... Why did he do it? Well simply because I "whined" that here in Denmark it's hard to come by mediocre locks. Either they're junky Master style locker-locks, or they're proper hardened locks with tight tolerances and security pins... A few years later I sent him a very rare Ruko that I knew he was missing in his collection. To me he holds the undisputed title of "Lockpicking's Grand Old Man". May he enjoy every moment of his retirement. Cheers! And let's get to picking!

I never became very good, but I still practice and love the sport that LPL and Bill introduced to me through these KZbin videos. Hats off to both these legends and a heartfelt happy retirement to Bill: As a great grandmother, I can affirm that nothing is more important than family.

I was just thinking yesterday that he hadn't posted for quite a while, and was getting quite worried about why. So thank you for letting us know. Very best wishes to Bill, and thanks for all the info he passed on in his videos

I thought exactly the same yesterday Brendan. I am very sad to hear that I won't see him and his videos again. It was BB who got me into picking, and I think that everything I learned has come from him. Here I am, at nigh-on 68 years of age, and I am so sad, sad, sad at this news. Thank you for everything BB...

You guys know why I like LPL? I am not particularly interested in picking locks, but the length of his videos. In three minutes he told about Bill, his situation and all of that, AND he picked a lock. In an era of hugely stretched KZbin videos, these are such a treat. Short, precise, informative, fun. But relaxing and calm, at the same. I really hope that more tubers would downsize their videos... I wish good times for Bosnian Bill, and Mr Lawyer.

Thank you LPL for the update. BB was the first channel that had me enthralled with the complexity and intricate skill level that it takes to be a professional locksmith. His humility mixed with humor only added to his greatness. With all of this in mind, his ability to simplify what he was doing and why he chooses particular approaches, really made it as comprehensible to kids and adults. That alone is monumental. What a wonderful friend, teacher, and all around gift of life that our world desperately needed, and appears to need more and more, with every passing day. LPL, by reading these comments, I hope that you also realize what contributions you have made, toward the betterment of individual lives, and to society as a whole. Like Bill, what time and effort that you both have put forth over the years really does make a difference. I don't think you will ever know just how much of an impact to people's lives that you have made and will continue to make for many years to come. Keep being that glimmer of light for a world covered in darkness. Thank you.

Our best wishes to BB. Is there a GoFundMe for BB's friend to pay for medical expenses and help with the kids? I bet the community could step up.

LPL- "head over to his channel, find a favorite video and leave a comment" BB- "10 comments on 2,000 videos is going to take some time to read! So much for retirement!!!"

Have a good retirement Bill ;) Does anyone know what will happen to the Bill's "nasty bucket" of locks that couldn't be opened on camera? I think it could be interesting to see LPL explaining the intricacies of each one.

Wow, I've been slowly watching his videos (and yours) to learn more about lock picking. While I knew about the fried, I'm thankful that he shared all the information he did, and look forward to learning from all the videos he has posted so far.

Bill was responsible for getting me interested in lock picking. New videos will be truly missed. The quirky sense of humor, gutting disasters, and perpetually cut up hands made him such a character. I wish him well.
