    How to hack open any combo lock!

    Using a combo lock is now obsolete. at the gym, at school, on your bike, whatever. at no cost, and under 5 seconds, i can hack any combo lock in front of me.

    don't believe me?

    watch this:

    so if you see little pieces of soda can lying around, you know someone has been busy.

    Pretty slick, exact same principal as a credit card in a door lock. Nothing is safe....

    So simple. I always knew those locks were just to keep the honest people honest, but that shows how little effort it takes...scary.

    If it was any easier it would be as easy as downloading an MP3...and then everyone would do it.

    Nothing beats a buffalo lock. You need a grinder to cut that thing.

    No, this is the one I'm referring to. Never seen it in pink, though! Not even bolt cutters would work.

    THX!!! i have never been a big fan of carrying the key but that video is disturbing, plus there has been too many instances of theft at the new gym. Gals can't leave car in the cars, break window in parking lot and then steal the purse so need to take that into the gym too now.

    I will be-dazzle mine with Texas bling

    Hooray for TX

    I use these locks in all my stores on the inside gate. Several break in attempts over the years, no one ever gets passed it. Lost a key once, the locksmith was there for 30 minutes grinding away at it. I think this lock could survive a grenade.

    You would be amazed at the many ways to get into locks. Hell we used to pop those damn dial locks back in the 80's with a drum stick. Google bump locks and see what you find. It's scary how unsecure your shit really is!

    Because popularity today is based on the number of views your content gets.

    Myth busters said it's fake but another guy proves it works on you-tube. I'm going to try it. Looks simple and make is plausible depending on how the lock mechanism works.

    It looks like the cylinder is pressure sensitive and by forcing air into the lock system it will activate it to unlock. Google youtube Tennis ball opening a car door with a tennis ball.

    This is crazy. But a closed shackle combo lock would prevent this
