I can't figure out how to embed the video, so here is a link:
No. 3 Master Lock | Flickr - Photo Sharing!
[EDIT - Is the audio working for anyone? The audio works fine when I play it on my computer, and the video I posted on Facebook (same file) works fine - but I don't hear anything on Flickr (still the same file). Might have to upload it to YouTube or something...]
I posted this on Facebook and Flickr, so some of you may have seen it already.
Some of you may know that another hobby of mine is lock picking... You would probably be surprised at how easy it actually is. I haven't even been doing it that long...
If you use padlocks on your stuff, don't use Master Lock. They are probably the most common lock, but they are also the easiest to pick. As far as I know there is not a single Master Lock that has any security features designed to make them harder to pick.
If you want a better lock for the same price as a Master Lock, look at Brinks.
This one, in particular, is probably the most bang for your buck that you can get. $7, and better than anything Master Lock makes.

Like anything else, you get what you pay for, but Brinks makes a better lock for the same money.
Don't skimp out on your front door deadbolt either. Good locks aren't cheap. Most cheap deadbolts are as easy to pick as they are to open with the key (some are easier to pick than to use the key).
