My project for Genius Hour is learning to pick locks and learn the basics of how locks work. My interest in this topic, embarrassingly, came from video games. More specifically, Skyrim, my favorite video game of all time.
It's a lot harder in real life.
I thought it would be cool to be able to do this in real life, I could help people who had been locked out, see how a lock actually works, show people that any idiot can learn to pick locks, that you are never, ever safe and everything you've known or thought you've known about your own security is a lie. You're welcome.
