I recently came across one of the Lockpicking Lawyer's videos on YouTube. I may not be taking it too seriously, but it seems kind of silly to me. But with all the strange people out there it could be dangerous. He might encourage someone to try it out in a real situation. It's supposed to be a hobby.
He says he He works with lock manufacturers to improve the security of their devices. He also sells the tools he uses through his own company, Covert Instruments

Some more examples of the tools of the trade:
He did not really invent this.
After some practice, it's not really that difficult.

Well, everyone needs a hobby! Like many skills and tools, lock-picking is not illegal in and of itself. It has many legal applications. It's only when you use it to commit a crime that it becomes illegal.
