Have you ever picked a lock?

edit: a practice lock is any lock that you were picking purely for practice which was not securing anything. a lock in the wild is a lock that was in place to actually secure something (love locks count)

@eniko Yes, and I (we) succeeded.

My nephew had somehow locked an old door, so we took two pieces of scrap metal and fixed them inside, and after about 45 minutes of trying and even practicing on a sibling lock, we managed to turn it twice and it was unlocked. We even tried (while the door was ajar) to open it again, and learned more about the mechanism and succeeded in that too.

I might have done something similar earlier in life, but I don't remember.
