You make no effort to hide your disdain for locks that suffer from terrible design flaws or a lack of sufficient security measures, but you also openly praise locks that meet your standards. You don't make it about how easily YOU can pick a lock, you focus entirely on the lock and discuss it in practical terms. You create these videos and perform these tasks for us with minimal ego, and that's what makes them such a joy to watch.

[@GMBeaulac]

Sorry about your friend. The act of switching the side you're working on while maintaining tension and multiple tension tools "in the wild" seems like it would be extraordinarily difficult, so I suspect these locks would be much more difficult to pick while serving their intended purpose. Great video as always!

Great videos man! When I was in the US Navy (Surface not Sub) many years ago we had these locks on the torpedo and missile magazine doors. They were there to keep bored sailors and contractors and such honest. The weak link was the doors themselves. I won't elaborate on the doors, but in addition to the lock there were also armed security patrols and alarms. Because there may or may not have been nuclear weapons in the missile magazine, the lock key was kept inside a small safe with a combo lock which was in turn kept inside a bigger safe with a combo lock. Known as the inner and outer safes, no one person had both combos. You had inner combo holders and outer combo holders and it took one of each to get the key to the lock, after alarms were turned off (2 people) and sentries were posted. It is called the 2 man rule. No person is ever allowed to be alone with nuclear weapons, even if they were just going in to do something as routine as magazine temperature checks.

Years ago, I had a similar lock (externally, it looked the same) that had many flat plates (don't remember but I think it was something like 78 plates) stacked in the core and it used a double-sided key. Motorcycle thieves on Okinawa used a screwdriver with a lever to shear the pins on regular locks. They tried unsuccessfully to open the lock I used. Fortunately, I was still able to open the lock with the key. I disassembled it and found that they had damaged some of the plates. The lock continued to provide security until I left Okinawa.

That took you the longest to pick of any lock I've seen you pick! It also seems like it would be impossible to pick, if it was actually attached to something. Well done, Miracle!

[@jeremyhanna3852]

I am glad your a honest man cause I fear nothing on this planet would b safe

[@jasonlee7484]

Finally something you didn't pick in under 15 seconds! Interesting double sided core. Sorry to hear about your buddy. I'll have a read of the BBC article.

This fellow veteran salutes your fallen friend. Thanks for posting another outstanding LPL clip.

[@thomasbean1590]

I feel like he picks bike/shed locks and then instead of stealing anything, he just takes the lock and runs away

[@davidreeding9176]

That is still stealing

Beautiful message at beginning. It's cool you sent us here from the future just a few days away from memorial day.

[@jacobforshee6032]

As a car guy, I will now classify this lock as a “flat 10”

2 1/2 years later and the link is still active. Thank you, Lt. Malcom.

thank you for your service and RIP to your friend!

Semper Fi, Lt. Malcolm. Going out on the birthday of the Marine Corps is a Devil Dog way to go!

Rip LT. Malcom. And we appreciate the service of both you and your fallen friend.

Thank you for Dan to serve our country LPL.

[@Tidaveel]

4:46 LPL's so used to talking about what he feels in a lock that he almost says ". . the amount of rust I felt in there" xD

Iraq wasnt about oil, it was about helping israel create zion.

Is it just me or he always sounds like a dentist looking for cavities? Lol

"We honor military service" Me: oh my god he's going to lockpick the military now!!!

[@RuberDuky1]

Hopefully this will get to the one that I call "Sir Henry". Your content is among the best on the entire platform and I cannot thank you enough. I revisited this 2 year old video and actually clicked on the link and read the BBC article. War is a terrible thing and on that day it took another hero. I'm glad that we have these great men willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for justice and peace. May all of our fallen brothers be kept in our hearts, and our family still fighting in our prayers. On a much lighter note, I can't say enough about the content from LPL BosnianBill and LockNoob, so I won't say much at all and let the content speak for itself, but what I will say is that over the course of my locksport training these guys have taken my view of the world and flipped it on it's head. My deepest thanks go out to you and your peers sir!

Rest in peace Daniel Malcolm and all the military people who died for their country

@John Smith Man, countries don't even need propaganda to indoctrinate an Anti-American mentality. They're so stupid they'll believe in complete lies anyways. Good luck with your UN overseers banning internet freedom.

Love your extensive knowledge on locks. Thank you

[@trevort4286]

Can you show us that other one the showed before you picked this one the key was really interesting and I would love to see that core

[@tiikoni8742]

I was wondering that key and core too. Key seem to have 90 degree corners, it can't push any pins up when pushing key in(?) Interesting looking key anyway :-)

[@marcatkinson5187]

Oh wow... Citadel grad...very cool, sir.

Usually 10-15 minutes but can take 30" *checks time" oh. 5 minutes left. I guess he got a new record then

[@damnoldguy]

I grew up on military bases during this time and my dad was a small arms instructor, and I remember these locks!

[@MultiVde]

Fully agree with with you on the tolerances. I've managed to open (one of) mine and made a key for it (had none) but for the moment I can't manage to pick it on camera. Was a pain to completely disassemble but worth it :) At least got the assembly on camera :D Happy memorial day.

[@uzaiyaro]

Died one day before Armistice Day. That really sucks. I may not be American (I'm Australian, if anyone is curious), but I sure can stand behind you guys who fight for our freedom. I think we all wish your jobs weren't necessary, but in any case, thank you, very much, for your service. May your retirement be a blessed one - if there is anything out there.

[@gigglysamentz2021]

[@BlackhawkPilot]

Had thes in my unit in Korea 1975-1976. Arms rood with three locks , mail room, safe room, and ammo dump (gate and each bunker). All had 1/4” steel covers over them so they could only be accessed from below. would sure like to see you pick the lower arms room lock that was about 18” off the floor. Keys kept in two safes, duty officer had the key to the safe room for 24/7/365 access. O400 alerts can get messy so quick easy access is required.
