Turn a Bra Underwire Into a Lock Pick

Maybe you're locked out of your own house, or maybe you just want to learn how to pick locks for a better understanding of your security. If you don't have a set of picks handy, Instructables user hailtothkngbby shows us how to make one out of a bra underwire.

This trick is pretty handy because it contains something you'll almost always have with you (provided you are female, or traveling with one), so you can use it to get yourself out of a bad jam. This particular guide turns the wire into a Bogota Rake, a special kind of lockpick designed for "raking," a method of lockpicking in which you move the lock pick in and out quickly to move the tumbles (see the video above for a demonstration). Hit the link to read more, and remember: use your powers for good, not for evil!
