Imagine the scene: romantically holding hands as you close the padlock shut, then asking your wife to turn away while you lower your welding mask, fire up the welding torch and get to work.
The channel "honest guide" has made videos about how damaging these love locks can be to the bridges they are attached to and how there are teams of people who go and remove the locks on a regular basis. Would be very cool to see a video where you go to one of these bridges, with one of those teams, and see how many you could pick in say an hour as I think most of them use grinders and bolt cutters to remove the locks normally. Probably not going to happen, but still felt it was worth to drop the comment.

@@seriokan2971 the thing is, if the company really wanted to, I expect they could make a lock that couldn't ever be opened again in a non-destructive manner. It probably wouldn't even be hard.

In Portugal among other places, people put laces and knots in bridges and similar places instead of locks.

It's both hilarious and a surprisingly fitting symbol to weld your own lock like that.

*explaining to my professor, pointing fingers and trying to avoid guilt* "It was this one, officer! He made me snort my coffee on my manuscript, and giggle madly while my cat sends me mixed looks of concern and contempt!"
just need a lock completely made of tungsten carbide. Might be easier to cut the railing than the lock at that point. Would need a diamond wheel to cut it so it would probably be cheaper and easier just to cut the railing and replace/weld on the cut section.
Me, knowing people usually put their love locks, on bridges where hundreds of people have already done the same thing: "Ah, yes, to show that your love is ordinary, unremarkable and banal, of course! Lost amongst the multitude." LPL: "And that lock is welded shut". Well played, sir. Well played.
A little bit of rust and aliminium powder would make some good ol' thermite and open that lock forever. Locks ar usually just a nod to honest people that they should mind their own business. Criminals will be able to open any lock in the world, given enough time.
"and that lock, is welded shut". Imagine being so good at lock picking, that you think the only thing that could stop someone in your profession, is to weld it shut. The man deadass disrespected every lock company on the planet, while doing a romantic gesture. True Alpha.
I thought Lawyer's love interest was only the comfort of his locks. But hearing that he *"welded"* a lock permanently shut for his soulmate is poetic af.
@@thennoth2860 Its from the original Police Squad TV series that predates the movie. He was undercover as a locksmith, and he winds up in a suspects apartment. He is asked "How did you get in?" And he says "I'm the locksmith. And I'm the locksmith"
I know in Helen, Georgia, there is a bridge in the town that has SO MANY locks due to this tradition. You can find both new and VERY antique locks on the bridge. I plan to put mine and my husband's lock on it this coming year.

"And that lock, my friends, is welded shut." At first I was like "aw, that's sweet". Then I remembered that Ms. LPL is the master of destructive entries.
@@danielsjohnson It was mentioned and/or implied in a few videos. The most prominent one was the ice cream cup one, where it was not only implied, but his wife actually just cut of part of the cup instead of dealing with the lock directly to get to the ice cream. It's actually more of a little joke though and not to be taken seriously.
So. Just a pair of bolt cutters to remove unwanted trash from council property. Good. If you want a more interesting lock consider a pair of cams, driving the lock shut flicks the latch, the latch releases the primary rod holding both sides shut, this rod is secured when the button at the bottle is pressed by the shackle, and is pressed and dropped to lock the rod in place. Plenty of extra steps to defeat, although admittedly still vulnerable to heat and or bolt cutters, or failing that diamond wheel angle grinders. Otherwise think of the millions of locks on council property and the fine you face for their inability to remove your locks.
It's kind of funny but messed up too. On the Brooklyn bridge when they get too many locks built up in one spot the city comes and cuts them all off lol. Then they build back up again and they cut them off again.
there's a famous bridge not too far from where i live that's absolutely riddled with locks... the thing is, that every few months, the bridge gets so full of locks that there's not any space for new locks anymore, so they actually employ somebody to go cut just about 10% of the locks off every week in the dead of night. the locks are then recycled. so people who place their locks at famous places like that THINK that their love lock will remain there forever, but their lock actually only lasts until it gets cut off (that's why you'll VERY RARELY see old heavily rusted locks at locations like that, because all the locks are less than a year old).
There was also a case where the locks exceeded the structural capabilty of the bridge and had to be removed. But I can't remember if it were love locks or locks that soldiers left on the bridge when they left the base for the last time after the end of their service.
@@flyguy0765 And then we will have even more problems. Not to mention the cost. That's all information I, as an average citizen of the US, knows from the internet. It's just cheaper and easier to cut the locks.
I think performing the concrete act of making sure it literally can't be picked makes it less symbolic. To do it more symbolically, you just don't lock it at all. Or don't even use a lock. "Let's not and symbolically say we did."
@@wheedler The idea of the symbol is to represent the challenge necessary for the relevant persons to separate, an open lock would be more representative of "We're friends but could probably be together idk"
I just imagine LPL's training arc as a kid where his lockpicking sensei takes him to a foreign country that has one of those bridges with all the love locks on it and tells him something to the effect of "You must pick all these locks by sunrise if you want to be my student"

It's both hilarious and a surprisingly fitting symbol to weld your own lock like that. Modern relationships, like locks, are less resilient than they seem, but someone with a decent understanding of how they work and a willingness to do things differently than how society expects can still make one to last.

just need a lock completely made of tungsten carbide. Might be easier to cut the railing than the lock at that point. Would need a diamond wheel to cut it so it would probably be cheaper and easier just to cut the railing and replace/weld on the cut section.

When did Mrs. LPL do that or be in a video at all?
@@danielsjohnson Off of the top of my head, she defeated the Ben+Jerry's Ice Cream lock [801] by just cutting through the packaging of the Ice cream.
@@danielsjohnson It was mentioned and/or implied in a few videos. The most prominent one was the ice cream cup one, where it was not only implied, but his wife actually just cut of part of the cup instead of dealing with the lock directly to get to the ice cream.
It's actually more of a little joke though and not to be taken seriously.
@@Ryuunohanami she actually cut open the bottom ... another way of thinking out of the box i guess
So. Just a pair of bolt cutters to remove unwanted trash from council property.
Good.
If you want a more interesting lock consider a pair of cams, driving the lock shut flicks the latch, the latch releases the primary rod holding both sides shut, this rod is secured when the button at the bottle is pressed by the shackle, and is pressed and dropped to lock the rod in place.
Plenty of extra steps to defeat, although admittedly still vulnerable to heat and or bolt cutters, or failing that diamond wheel angle grinders.
Otherwise think of the millions of locks on council property and the fine you face for their inability to remove your locks.
"this lock can never be opened"
Lockpickinglawyer: *makes 2 minute video*
5.23 seconds of lockpicking and rest is story
you know its real shit when he takes 2 minutes to introduce, explain, do, and leave you with an outro.
till the angle grinder do us part
It's kind of funny but messed up too. On the Brooklyn bridge when they get too many locks built up in one spot the city comes and cuts them all off lol. Then they build back up again and they cut them off again.
there's a famous bridge not too far from where i live that's absolutely riddled with locks... the thing is, that every few months, the bridge gets so full of locks that there's not any space for new locks anymore, so they actually employ somebody to go cut just about 10% of the locks off every week in the dead of night. the locks are then recycled. so people who place their locks at famous places like that THINK that their love lock will remain there forever, but their lock actually only lasts until it gets cut off (that's why you'll VERY RARELY see old heavily rusted locks at locations like that, because all the locks are less than a year old).
There was also a case where the locks exceeded the structural capabilty of the bridge and had to be removed. But I can't remember if it were love locks or locks that soldiers left on the bridge when they left the base for the last time after the end of their service.
Too bad we couldn't do a study to correlate the removed locks with failed relationships. It would be an interesting study... who knows...
A diligent engineer or a romantic.I was in college when I realised you can only be one of these two things.
Such a lame way to solve the problem... It would be so much cooler to just reinforce the bridge
@@flyguy0765 And then we will have even more problems. Not to mention the cost. That's all information I, as an average citizen of the US, knows from the internet. It's just cheaper and easier to cut the locks.
I have nicknamed the modified padlock shim “Divorce”
I was about to make the same joke. lol
"To show it wasn't a fluke, here are the papers requiring signatures to make it legally binding"
This product would be a remarkable marketing strategy for divorce lawyers
I called it an "affair"
the fact that he welded the lock shut because he fully knows how easy it is to pick a lock is even more symbolic than any of the other locks
I think performing the concrete act of making sure it literally can't be picked makes it less symbolic. To do it more symbolically, you just don't lock it at all. Or don't even use a lock. "Let's not and symbolically say we did."
@@wheedler "i think the concrete act of putting pigment on the canvas makes the art less symbolic- REALLY- the artist should've just SAID he did it."

@@internetuser8922, looked like a soda can would do pretty well.
was hoping he'd be creative and use percussion or so. "So we use this here love-tap on it aaand here, it's open"
If it can be made shim prufe, ther's no need to weld it.
If he didn't, his actions would be shimless.
I just imagine LPL's training arc as a kid where his lockpicking sensei takes him to a foreign country that has one of those bridges with all the love locks on it and tells him something to the effect of "You must pick all these locks by sunrise if you want to be my student"
