Looks real enough. The 2 bypasses you could teach to a kid, and the lock could have been easy to rake. Wouldn't pick a hard one for the video! But impressive for his age. With the tools and locks his dad must be a locky or hobyist. You never know the kid could be a member here!! :D

And bumping a master dimple lock probably isn't nearly as hard as bumping a mul-t-lock :wink:

In the world of ours anything is possible even for a 9yr old. There are probably heaps of child prodagies out there just awaiting to be stimulated.

Don't ever mention children and stimulation in the same sentance again. Lord knows what people might think.

I agree with romstar. There should be a filter for your Melbournen jargon!

PS: doubley so if you have 'flaming' in your name :shock: :shock:

This is off topic, but man is this kid going to be in some trouble when he hits middle school / high school. If at this age he is able to bypass / bump / rake those locks and he progresses, then add in peers knowing about this. And add peer presure. I think its going to be a bad mix.

Sometimes I just wish I were a 9 year old again.

I can't remember why I ever wanted to grow up now that I am here. There must have been something other than sex.

The kid didn't show the bumpkey that well... actual working key?

The brass lock he raked wouldn't be that hard. Those ones are usually easily raked. I would like to know how he bypassed that last lock though...

I have that same combo lock, and I even found a visual guide to bypassing it (only showing the construction and bypass theory), but I've never been able to manage it. I'd like to know which knife he uses.

why not?

the skeptics seem to think age is a bar to competence, in fact age and competence are not linked, look at the american president, never had to obey any law and they put him in charge, got what they bargained for. a hobby war.

Ray, sometimes you say things that there is just no arguing with.

Age is certainly no guarantee of competence. Especially in politics.
