Postby james5345 » 3 May 2009 3:17

Just tried googling this to no joy really, But i got wondering after watching Gunnisses World Records, if there was a world record lock picking.... er... record :?

If not why not lol, maybe digital blue could host one, as long as freakparade doesnt see any texans there the event should be brilliant! lol

You'll have to make sure your sig is no bigger then 3 lines, otherwise one of the mods will PM you with the request to edit it.
I know, it happened to me as well ;)

I wish they hadn't gone to that other segment.

I still don't have a clear handle on what can be posted outside of advanced and what can't, but I think I'm ok to note:

What bugged me about the Remington is that I didn't see him hit any false gates. Regardless of feel and sound, a good safe has false gates and you're gonna hit 'em like it or not. He had a fair bit of back and forth it appeared during the cut to the other segment at the bank vault. Maybe false gates, I'd have liked to have seen that. I just work through the false gates - at the end of the process, even on a pretty good safe, you still only have a handful of potentials.

my safe knowledge is limited but i to thought he was getting through them a bit quickly, i thought that once he found the gate or correct number as it is in the dial, dont you have to turn it say 5 times clock, then 4 times counter then 3 times clock, one full turn to 00 then qaurter turn to open it, again i know this is not for all safes, but certainly the old one in the corner of our office....

Not if the front wheels are already set correctly.

Google allows you to download the video directly, so you could host it yourself:

http://v9.lscache2.googlevideo.com/vide ... 43&key=ck1

it's ~40MB in size, MP4 format ;)

If it goes down, I'll host it on my server and post a link - at least until I get a credible DMCA takedown. I'll probably also transcode it into something less obnoxious. Wish I'd recorded it in full resolution relatively lossless though.

Dmux - do you have a clean copy at atleast full D1 resolution?

if you turn off full-screen view, there's a PSP/ipod download link. I just snagged that, but I wouldn't mind a much higher resolution encode. :)
