The disturbing and fascinating world of lock-picking

A video for you today (two, actually), touching on a topic that has always interested me, ever since I learned my dad once took a mail-order lock-picking course. He still even has the tools and has used them on rare occasions. Anyways, not only is it a fun topic, but this guy, Tobias, comes through as one of those people I would love to some day base a character on.



Here's the main article from Wired, and below is another video demonstrating this guy's skills.




I see that smile.

This is awesome. I have a character who picks locks, so this is good stuff for me.

Thanks!
