 what's up guys take down here with another story time video for you as the thumbnail and the title suggests this is episode six it is about a lockpicking contest that's me and my friend had in high school and there's a few other things leading up to this that makes sense so in high school i never skipped too often i skipped classes that didn't matter so msip which is kind of like a study hall i've skipped that a handful of times but mostly i've skipped stuff like events at school so when the school had farm day or hick day or whatever whatever they called it i would skip that because i wasn't into farming or hick stuff even though most of the area is i wasn't so i would just go to the beach meet my friends or we'd go and hang out or walk around or do whatever but we did get into a lot of trouble that's mostly what this video is about and it is criminalizing um some of the stuff is criminal i guess and stuff we shouldn't have done now i i know now not to do it and i'm not this way anymore but some of the stuff we did because we were like rebels and we didn't think we were doing anything wrong that's the most part here so where i'm from um people that watch this video from my area if they anyone does there's this area called the point which is the locks um near the st. Lawrence by that by that road you go up there's this forest which says states right on it no trespassing us being rebels we decided we're going in that and that's what we did one day coming out though um there was literally nothing there was a wagon in there we didn't get too far in some of them were scared so a lot of us just backed out just okay well we're not going in if not everybody's going in but on our way out um there was a cop coming by and that day i think it's one of the days we were skipping farm day or one of those school events that you just don't want to go to um and the cop was going by and we were on the road we're missing one friend we're like where the hell did he go um so we're talking to the cop cops like what are you guys doing well the school is having this event we weren't interested we know we know the cop can tell us to go back the cop can do that we weren't going to lie to the cop we just didn't tell him what we were just doing um so he said well okay he's like i i understand some of that stuff you know i didn't do he's like what time do you have to be back by i said well the next class starts at such and such time or maybe the buses come pick us up in such and such time i can't remember what time of day it was so it's like okay as long as you're back by then you guys aren't causing a problem you guys are being safe carry on unknowing in our uh in the forest we have one friend lingering he didn't realize there's a cop there um he's yelling in in there in the cops looking like what's this you guys are here and there's i hear it's like somebody yelling so he didn't know if somebody was yelling for help or anything but then all of a sudden um i looked over and i seen him about to come out and i kind of waved like behind me so the cop didn't see so that would have busted us right there because he would have known if there was one of us in there we likely all would have and we all would have been sent back and probably in a little bit of trouble so that's the one thing another thing we did um um maybe i shouldn't say this on a story time video but we went and we destroyed the locks at the beach we took rocks and our logic is we're going to try to get in there because i think it might have been a bad day and we wanted to wait it out we thought going inside the building the small little shack building was our safest bet so we tried to smash the locks and the door handle to get in smash it didn't get in because it was still locked um so on our way back the township truck came which they're the ones that clean up the whole area and they came and they they stopped us and they seen it and we pointed it out we didn't let on we did it we just said there was some older kids there and this is probably 10th grade or so so that was probably one of the worst criminalizing things i have done stupidest thing i've done but now into the lockpicking contest which is the most fun we had because it didn't work out so if it did we would have been in shit but it didn't so we're okay and what that is is an auto shop uh or any shop would shop auto shop you're not allowed to make any kind of weapons you're supposed to make stuff um for the shop you have to fabricate anything it's for the shop and the teacher is always watching everybody well what me and my friend decided to do was uh we're looking into lockpicking we wanted to do like a contest at the beach there was doors change rooms we basically we just wanted to get in the change rooms so um a previous video i said um about going to the beach and uh at the end of the school year and doing kind of a thing but one thing we decided to do was to try to pick the locks to get into there so we'd have an area to change in it's actually the change room so we weren't breaking into like a building to steal anything we're breaking into the building to have a change area and that's what we thought in our mind we didn't think there was anything wrong with it of course there was your breaking and entering anyways but i can't remember what my friend was using as like the lockpicking tool but what i was using was a old used um um auto file like one of the the metal files for auto shop um dull so the teacher is basically throwing it away so i ended up taking it and the other end where it's really thin it's really hard but i thought that was the thinnest point of it luckily the teacher had a old wooden cabinet with the dead bolts in the auto shop so what we did was we basically went made sure it was right thickness walked up youtube videos how to pick locks and basically i grinded it down to um the thinnest it did to be able to get into the lock so the thickness of a key which was a lot of work hiding it from the teacher behind his back doing a little bit and then when the teacher came over just stopping and like grinding what we're actually supposed to be grinding so we didn't see what we were making but unknowingly i know now why it didn't work because never anything like that screwdrivers stuff like that files especially uh chisels they're hardened and we didn't harden it we took that hardness off and we grinded them thin but we didn't re harden it which would have been a lot of work to do and we weren't thinking that at the time so i need this to say um once once made went to the beach his tool wasn't working much we tried um paper clips they weren't working they wouldn't do anything we didn't have a professional set which is what we were going to do just for shits and giggles but we didn't want to buy a professional set that's why we made the contest to make our own but whenever i put the file into the lock and turn it literally it it was like butter it just broke right off just one twist it's in the lock stuck and i was like well that was our only opportunity so lock picking was a huge fail and then they had a little gate um for the concession stand so we thought if we can get into there we can use that as a change room so whenever we put the file underneath the rest of the file pop up on it it snapped instantly so we didn't get to do anything um with it we attempted to pick locks and probably it was a really stupid thing to do i would say using the rocks to break try to break into the place which i said a minute ago it's probably the stupidest thing i've ever done but to me it was worth sharing in a story time so i hope you guys did enjoy this was episode number six i'll see you guys in the next one hope you guys are enjoying these series about my past my high school my experiences my memories a lot of these tie into high school so that's where i'm going to be sharing it in like high school groups and that but anyways i will see you guys in the next one peace
