That was acutally a very entertaining show. Mike Glasser (a member of this site) was one of those guys who was struggling with that lock. :roll:

Did you see the other one where they had to gain entry to the flat by climbing over some balconies? i thought well see how quick they get into the glass sliding doors now but it was already open!!

There was another part on that show with the detectors that we should leave to the thread in the advanced section but that interested me, they ran all the shows one after the other a few weeks ago, it was an entertaining few hours to say the least.

Plants??? what plants you been looking at then? :lol:

(dont worry the joke wasnt lost on me i do know what you was saying :wink:

I thought their completely baseless conclusion was pretty funny. "It must be his super sensitive fingers!" :roll:

How about understanding of the lock, and thousands of hours of practice?

There was another show where Jeff Sitar was brought in to open a small safe that was installed in a closet. Seems like... this show was one of those apartment makeover or home improvement type shows for room mates on a budget.

I don't recall the name of the show, but Jeff's safecracking was a not the primary subject of the program. He was brought in for a short spot where the shows host implied that he'd been working the safe for a couple of hours with no success.

Later in the show... the dial/combo safe was 'upgraded' to a digital keypad safe. ...I don't recall that the show ever stated whether he ever did open the safe. It certainly did not show him doing it.

Do you think he doesn't live up to the hype?

I remember this being hosted on the old Locksmith Archives... However, it doesn't seem to be on the new one. If memory serves, it took a hellamella long time to download anyway.

Make that 'Locksport Archives'...

Yes, it used to be on zeke's site as that's where I got it. I'll give it to anyone who's willing to host it.

i thought someone on the forum had a ftp with tons of good stuff on it, what happened to it does anyone know, i think it was like ftp://nickz.... or something

by **Shrub** » 20 Mar 2006 18:24

That was zeke79's site and its now closed down.

If you have a search for the relevant topics you will find his new site which is better than ever and has a lot more control on where the user name and password is concerned.
