Default Bump keys...

I was wondering if anyone else saw this on the news. It was so good I just couldn't contain myself.

A few months ago they had this big thing about bump keys and the news guy was going to demonstrate how easy it was to use the key to bump a lock. So all day they were saying he was going to do it live.

Well the time comes and it's the top of the news and the guy starts trying. He starts bumping the lock with the hammer and it doesn't give so he keeps trying and trying and trying on live TV. He is tapping like a madman. Saying it "Sometimes it takes a little time".

So after a few minutes the suspense was killing me. You start to realize that this thing is not going to give but he won't give up. Then I start thinking that this guy knows he looks like a r-tard and he is standing there hitting that key thinking "Oh God please let this work, everyone is watching me live" then as seconds pass he is probably thinking "God I was really serious about needing this to work" then at minute number three he is thinking "Thanks for nothing man" and finally has to turn around and admit defeat.

The suspense of him banging on that key for three minutes was better than any thrillers I have seen in a long time. Hahahahaahahah

Geez, what will they come up with next? I had never heard about this bumping thing, but here's an interesting link on the subject:


YouTube - Lock Bumping and Bump Keys

It's a crazy world, folks.

Well, I wish it were, but I don't think so...do some research on it, and I think you'll find it is legit.

Get a dog. Noisy is the primary requirement. Any of the noisy breeds.

Don't leave home without a house sitter. They cost about the same as kenneling the dog.

Nobody bumps your lock while a thing is snarling up the background.

And they love you...What alarm company does that?

Only problem with my noisy dog is that she'd lick the intruder to death.
