Our door knob is round.

His hand fumbling around at 0:50 reminds me of senior prom.

Just kicking the door in is a lot faster.

Good thing this method is so freaking loud. Give a person plenty of warning to start kicking the crap out of the dude's hand.

They way he moves... its like a cat.

You have the coordination of a 12 year old girl.

Even though he got his hand in, does not mean he could just unlock the door, thats the whole point to this, to open it a crack to see who it is without unlocking the door, and to prevent person from pushing door open. The chain isn't long enough when opened that much, even if it's open a tiny bit where you can only fit paper thru the chain is too short, try it sometime. The door needs to be fully shut to get chain off.

Not really. Have you never stayed in a hotel? You can't slide the chain over with the door open, that's why this works as you go to shut the door again.

[Woftles]

He can't pull the chain though without closing the door because the chain isn't long enough.

[Jason Travor]

He could have just fucking unlocked it with his hand if he could get his arm all the way inside like that.
