So that's some assurance that many of the locks he picks aren't as easily picked by common criminals or even other skilled lock pickers.

I like that he often mentions ways the locks could be improved to make them more difficult to pick or crack. Hopefully lock manufacturers are noting some of his comments and making improvements. His comments have also steered me away from some brands and towards others.

Most thieves don't need to worry about learning lockpicking. A battery powered angle grinder will do the job in less time....and honestly no one will stop you or raise an eyebrow.
