[523] Disc Padlock: Twist Attack

[barryfields]

My dad always said locks are only there to keep the honest man honest. If someone wants to get in bad enough they will

[DavidShepheard]

"This is the HaspBreakingLawyer and today I'll be using this disc padlock to attack this hasp."

[BabyBenz]

Hunny, our crazy lawyer neighbor is breaking into his shed again...

As he didn't do that twice, I cannot be sure this was not a fluke.

24" Pipe wrench? My burglary bag is so full at this point, I barely have room for any valuables.

I love how LPL seem surprised the actual lock part held up.

[Xeonerable]

lmao the slight disappointment in his voice when he was expecting the lock to break but it broke his fence instead. "Damnit now I have to replace that"

[dannicholson]

Surprised the wood didn't split first

[benedictifye]

LPL: “I broke the hasp on the gate in the yard.”
Mrs. LPL: “That’s nice, dear.”

[jonnyalive]

We're going to need a bigger hasp.

I'm not sure how the algorithm directed me to these videos as I am a Chemical Engineer with not even a passing hobbyist interest in locks. But then I got hooked on these videos and have to admit I am close to ordering the lock pick kit just to have fun. One conclusion I have drawn from the various defeats of the broad range of locks included in the series is that no lock is able to withstand a determined attack. What they do is keep honest people honest. I've always thought about the merit of increased security doors on homes when a rock through the window is a faster way in anyway, which is exactly what happened at my work when they climbed through and then took the conference TV off the wall.

*starts video*
*sees video is 2 minutes long*
Oh this is gonna be good...

[shawoo]

My dad always said that if you can dodge a wrench you can dodge a ball

[michaelcowan]

Do this again, but on a shipping container. Would like to see the results.

That’s probably how all lawyer’s pipe wrenches look: never used.

[DavidIstre]

LPL: Even when locks do work, they're still worthless because of what they're attached to.

My son is watching with me today and he said “what if he is using these videos as a cover to break into things”. Like he’s suggesting that’s not your shed. It was funny to think about.

[APCJunky]

I've been recommending these as a budget padlock for about 35 years, I have one on my shed (the shed you could open with a tin opener so security is a moot point) it gets used only in the summer and has been in use for over a decade with zero maintenance and is still as good today as the day it was installed.

[dracoslayer]

I'm actually more impressed by the mounting hardware used on the fence. The fact that the welded hasp broke before the fence, bolts/screws, or lock did is pretty surprising.

[WilliamMancel]

I also like this series. Most burglars don't pick locks. They use Brute Force, or bypass the lock completely, like jumping over the wooden fence... LPL is just showing us some of the more realistic attacks against locks by criminals. Looking at some of the gun locks he worked on, I would have to say the locks on his property are for your protection. 😂

Oh no! The Super Hasp finally breaks 😨.
