I'm thinking about pranking a friend with the generation lock. But it may not be worth it to buy wood pieces for 250 dollars
Hehe, challenge him for money. 300$ if he can solve it one hour!
Low risk for you I guess! :D :D
I wonder if someone speedrunning the generation lock can do it in an hour
The Schloss 250 has 4 rows and 6 positions (5 steps) per row. That makes it: 2*5*5*5 = 250 steps.
The Generation Lock has 8 rows and 15 positions (14 steps) per row. That makes it: 2*14*14*14*14*14*14*14 = 210.827.008 steps!
If you consider 1 move per second and spending 1 hour per day working on it, it would take your friend more than 160 years to solve it. So the answer is definitely "No", your friend will not be able to solve it in one hour. Also not during his entire life! The puzzle will fall apart before you reach the end! ;)
In this case, the name of the puzzle is definitely no joke!
With that many steps to solve, at one move per second (working nonstop), it would take about 6 years, 8 months, 10 days, 3 hours, 3 minutes, and 28 seconds. So it can be done in one lifetime...if you're really determined (or if you have a group of buddies to pass it off to so someone is always working on it).
Mr.Puzzle hast du einen deutschen Kanal
Step One: buy bolt cutters
Step Two: cut the lock open

250 Steps to crack it and 1 Step to Break it.
Zer0trix Gaming 2 steps get a hammer then smash it
Presumably if you ever intended to use it as a lock, you'd have a metal version.
Ha ha
Zer0trix Gaming
I mean it’s cracking it
Just not the regular type of cracking it
you did not understand the joke i think
So this lock isn't much of a puzzle, just a cumbersome process.
Imagine using this as your regular lock
haha, on your bike! The flavor flav of locks!
Imagine trying to share the combo with a friend lol.
lol they wouldnt even know what your saying
Some guy when you are too paranoid about someone cracking your lock, use this lmao
Takes 250 steps? I only need one - brings a hammer-
nigga bringing the hammer is one step now what you gonna do if you don't have any more steps left...
Big step!
you could say that about every puzzle there is
Y.Rich now thats fun!
Just step on it
Actually looks like a boring solution, just many steps
Silentsouls Yes, seems incredibly repetitive
Not really a puzzle. More of a punishment. I can see this might be useful if your kid did something really bad.
I would open it in just one or two steps. Smash the sucker to pieces with a sledge hammer!
granted, i could see how people could find it soothing in a way. kind of like knitting, or counting on your fingers in binary
I can solve it in less. Step 1. grab a saw and proper safety equipment, step 2, turn on saw, step 3, destroy it
I have a *5 seconds solution* to this wooden puzzle-lock: an iron *sledge hammer.*
KastaRules progressive maintanance works every time 😬
yeah, no. Anything hard and someone using enough force can crack this open, heck you could prob open it with scissors
I have a counter-solution to your solution, *a metal frame*
4 seconds trying, 1 second smashing it out of frustration
KastaRules or a axe and a flame thrower
haha try stealing my bike now
MoonGuided its wooden, i can set fire
*revs chainsaw*
Mmkay!
At least if he steal it you know he deserved it lol
I'm pretty sure bike thieves don't pick locks or anything, brute force does the job 😅 One time I had to steal my own bike to get to work since I broke my key. There wasn't much to say if anybody would have walked on me in the middle of a night stealing a bike 😂 "don't call the cops! It's just my own bike"
A lock with 250 steps? Did you find it in a resident evil game? If it doesn't require 46 demon hearts its not safe enough.
*W O W*
🤣👍🏻🔥🍿🎉
The moment I looked at this, I immediately knew what the solution was. It's literally the same concept as brute-forcing a pin-number lock. You start at 0000, go to 0001, 0002, 0003, ect and so on and so forth, until you reach the answer which would be 9999. Or, in the specific case of this "puzzle" it would be 0250.
digiangel234 the lock is 2x5x5x5 so it never hits 250 in that sense. It's more like A000 to B125.
I thought its 4x4x4x4 = 256 i.e. atleast 250
Not really,seems to me that this is basically Hanoi Tower
digiangel23
It literally isn't. Brute forcing a pin number is a slow alternative way to find the combination to the quick way. This lock doesn't have a quick way. Also, with a number lock, you'd probably be done somewhere halfway. At least, you'd never expect the code to be the last number you try. In this puzzle it IS (and always is)
The key to my heart
Richcube awwwe
Reminds me of the time i brute-forced a combination lock.
For what purpose?
maybe he found an old lock but forgot the password
3-4 digit lock doesn't take much time to crack so i used to do that to stole some shit on the school
I had to do it when some jack ass brute forced my lock and changed the combination.
o-o
So far, I've broken into 2 locks that have the shell and a 4 digit combination that holds the keys to a house. The first time was because they gave us a combination that didnt work so I picked at it to get into our new home. 2nd was a few weeks ago getting into our old house in Mississippi when the city thought it was foreclosed but we still had mortgage payments on it.
*Walks out of house..*
"Ah damn it, forgot my wallet."
*Misses hot date at fancy restaurant.*
:D
Now lock it again
Yahya Khashaba omg I never thought of that. U r a genius!
The math behind this puzzle is so fascinating! It shows how exponential functions behave. very interesting stuff
This reminds me of the marching elephants "puzzle". It's definitely one of those sequential lock puzzles. I bet once you get a good rythm going, it's probably possible to cut the time to solve the generation lock to about 80 years given the comment below. Cheers, thanks for sharing!
😁
devjock if you don't forget the occasional jams that happened all the time during the timelapse, pretty sure it would be even worse with more layers, i'd estimate it at 300 years with all the time spent shaking it to get it unstuck
D
It's a big base 6 counter. The bottom row is the adder. This lock is 555 in base 6, which is 215 in base 10 (extra steps are needed to get each pin back to the beginning) The generation lock has you counting to 10077695 (555555555 in base 6) and if we assume that's about 10100000 steps total, and that it takes an average of 2 seconds to slide all the pins, then that's 20200000 seconds = 5611.111111... hr = 233.796296... days. Nonstop. If we say you have 10 hours a day for eating, sleeping, and... excreting... then it would be ~401 days total to finish. That's 1.1 years, so idk where the other guy got 80...
I just need 1 step
Smash it with crowbar or hammerXD
How is this a puzzle? It's just some... Endurance toy I would say.
It's a combination lock.
It may take a while to figure out what's happening on the thing
Alison Sanches Krinski you see the parts movie it won't take long
Jakub Kot when the world looks like nail a hammer seems to be the solution to every thing
+Jmae Hainstock actually i think you have a point would it be better if you could not see, like you would have to figure out that certain steps allow other steps instead of being obvious from the beggining, but would be nice if it was a bit shorter
250 steps...must be one tough puzzle
You gotta step on it 250 times
Just grab the handle n try to fold it w the body to snap it off..
Gee Mason but it's wood so........ FIIIIIIIIIIRRRREEE ,🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Robert Stephen yeah it's wood exactly.. stupid fuck..not everyone is clever minded
Gee Mason Hey Fuck You Man.
Robert Stephen yo momma
Imagine dealing with this at customs
Who else got frustrated at the fact that it took both hands to move the.bottom pin all the way across
So, in a way, it's like brute forcing a combination lock. You go through every single possible position of the pins to solve the puzzle.
yes, you must pass every single position but not every possible position.
The noise moving the notches over make during the fast foward part is really satisfying to me
I am going to put this on my locker at school.
I like the idea of the previous comment mentioning you showing us a puzzle you have yet to solve. Love your channel by the way, very cool and fascinating!
This post gave me the idea of a monthly "Puzzle Update"!
Please check my facebook page and comment my "Monthly Puzzle Update" post!
Thanks!
Wow! Dang, this must have taken you a while! Thank you Mr.puzzle!
Welcome! :D
Build it less open conceptly and out of hardier materials and combine it with an actual combination lock, and it looks like it'd be an excellent lock; intruders would not be expecting it, so even if they had somehow found out the combo, they'd be stymied by the additional "combo" puzzle. Plus, even if they knew the solution to this, it would take so much time to complete they'd get themselves caught if they tried.
Thumbs up because I like your honesty how you go about things. And thats exactly who locks keep out. Honest people. Notice almost all burglaries entail smashing a window or cutting a lock or fence?
That's 249 too many steps
I cant even fucking solve a rubrik's cube
pinakabudlayngapangalan ngamapaminsaranko i can fight me
pinakabudlayngapangalan ngamapaminsaranko
I wish I could solve a rubriks cube
I can
rubik's are easy to solve. you just need to put in the effort to learn it. It took me a full day to memorize the entire sequence.
this one is easy but long
now just imagine every school kid locking up their bikes with this
A metal version would be nice.
Unfortunately, those kids would come late every day since you have to lock it the same way as you open it! :D
or their lockers
What a beautifully designed puzzle!
I'm so excited to see you puzzlers beat the toughest puzzles
So this is why clash royal chest take so long to open
lucius croy Funny
You're an idiot XD
Its Clash ROYALE
+Troll Lol Clash Royale*
This one doesn't seem difficult, just really tedious.
Yes, it does not take too long to understand the mechanism.
Ikr
awesome work!
So less of a puzzle and more of a test of patience, given how quick the person would get the solution.
0:21 I think the target of all locks is to open it...
Is tHaT a GoLd BoX
Bastion Yes that's GoLd BoX
Lol I was thinking the same thing
Some have more than just opening it
Matthew McDonald and the target for the robber is?
I unlocked it in fewer steps.
Step 1: Get Hammer
Step 2: Smash
Excelsior fire
Excelsior or unscrew

Gotta love my recommended give me good content. Looks cool.
It's also a tool to teach base 6 numbering system. Each time the bottom peg is slid left or right it counts another digit on the upper 3 rows. If it were turned to the right It's easier to see. After one row counts to 5 the next row starts with the number 10 (one zero) and counts to 55 (five five), which is like 99 in our base 10 system. They start at 000 and count to 555. The next number is 1000 but woud require another row. A simpler version could be made to teach binary.
id burn it lol
Imagine a solution video, " how to open the 250 step lock in only 250 steps!"
Titans - Gaming and more LOL
I love how you say mr puzzle love your accent
Hehe thanks, Beau!
THIS IS THE GERMAN ACCENT !
Hallo, wie gehts?
Lord Jamorgifier Hallo mir gehts gut und dir ?
Luke Domisch Läuft bei dir
It would be great if there were pocket version of these.
Just found your channel. Awesome videos
I can't decide if this is the best lock ever or the worst lock ever. All I know is that if I took the time to lock it all the way, I would never open it again, so whatever I locked away would just be gone forever as far as I'm concerned.
😁
I think what would be more interesting than actually doing the puzzle would be building an apparatus that could lock and unlock it quickly.
wouldnt it take just as long to lock it lmao
This lock is useless it takes a lot of time to open, it's made out of wood so anyone can break it easily, and it cost around 250$. Seriously it's a waste of cash and time also anyone can break it because it's wood.
It is a great idea, but other than the top layer it seems a bit regular. It would be fun to see it with more complicated patterns of up-and-down, so you really had to pick your way through the solve. As it is, it has a Tower of Hanoi feel: a simple idea repeated recursively.
I think I got something here that you will like!
It doesn't only have the Tower of Hanoi feel - it is another version of the same task. For every big step, you need to repeat every smaller step. It's an endurance task, not a puzzle.
Imagine a Generation lock completely made out of unbreakable metal and then lock up someone’s bike with it in a public place.
That would be hilarious
Very cool!
Now I just need to get a custom made lock with this design so that whatever I lock something up, neither me or anyone who tries to steal it will be able to unlock it 😂
Lock yourself in a class room so people have to solve it to get in
Easy, just buy a fucking hammer!
What about locking it? You'd have to do the entire thing in reverse to lock it all the way...
How about one for my bike. Make it out of steel and viola... perfect lock
Just take care to start 20 min earlier to lock an unlock! 😁
If someone wants to steal it he will get a tool to break it :)
With all those slots in it, it wouldn't take too much. Even a crowbar could wreak havoc on something like that.
That's one idiotic and tedious "puzzle", that's the puzzle equivalent of a overpowered boss in a game, instead of using smart mechanics or something, they just increase his health points to simulate dificulty...
😂🤣
Well thought out analogy and I agree.
The genius is in the engineering
does it also take 250 steps to close it?
Yes
Kiros maby.... Probably?
Nothing a metal baseball bat couldnt handle :)
Your videos are so addicting Mr Puzzle. Thank you so much for all you do.
Welcome! Glad you like it!
Have fun setting that back up
that looks really cool man
oh boy have i never been so eager to see a lock to be Unlocked. On point 6:04 If i were the guy solving the puzzle and i got STUCK ON THE LAST STEP i would literally pull all of those pins to their suppose direction to unlock the Lock.
if you had this for your bicycle lock lol
topguy660 they could just saw it off it's wood
You honestly make it seem easy
Very interesting!
It's s quinary computer! At least a counter.
I'm glad it's made of wood, I would solve this puzzle with fire.
:D
Smeggit7 you *wood* burn it?
Smeggit7 i *wood blaze* through this lock
I don't know about anyone else...but I love the sled up sound of the shuffling, it sounds almost like trickling water....
Super bigger than I had thought!!
Nice nail!!
I like your videos. They are cool to watch.
Thanks Jakub!
Warning: DON'T stash your porn with this lock. By the time you finish unlocking it you will be to tired to use any of it.
Major DOT I use lock for my glowing basement i use 4 of them
I have a lock fetish.
Major DOT u r too funny
When someone keeps stealing your locks
Bolzenschneider = ein Schritt!
Satis Faction ?
Twilight Wolves123 was ist?
@@treedungeonsisters4686 he is saying your mom gay
I would not want this as a safe lock lol
imagine this lock but the goal is not to have all the pins on one side, but it's a random position, so every time you move one pin, you'll have to pull the thing above to see if it's opened
I always kinda wanted to use a puzzle lock for my locker. Since you need to tell the teachers your combo I’ll just give them a link to mr puzzle
This could be fun for long car trips maybe
Have you ever given up on a puzzle?
I have some which are still not solved. :)
Oooh, I'm sure we would all love to see the Puzzle stumpers :)
The 5-dimensional 6x6x4 Rubik's Cube.
Answering the purpose we hold in life or if we are an accident.
It's the giraffe one isn't it.
imagine having this in your school locker
by the time youre dismissed, you still havent opened it
Would be a fun fidget toy for puzzle lovers.
I had a puzzle like this but it was pegs and there were 8 in a circular pattern, just found it the other day.
I was hoping someone knew that puzzle! Any idea what the name of it is? I had one back in the day and the first peg broke off, I'd love to find a new one.
Apparently all I needed was to google "8 peg circle puzzle". It's The Brain by Magnif.
Kind of binary, it seems
Jensettiman I was just about to comment that
Or quaternary
this puzzle is more busywork than a puzzle after working out the mechanism.
For anyone who's ever been in electronics class and thought, "I wonder what it's like to be a Johnson counter?", this is the puzzle for you.
Isn't binary math tho??
You have a new subscriber today sir. :-)
Oh my gosh!You are crazy!!!
Aww it's sold out, great vid though
Thanks!

IRON MAIDEEEEEN
Do you play koa?
I want to see the one with 10 rows, maybe you could find one with 50 rows? That would keep me busy.
The Generation Lock has 8 rows and 15 positions (14 steps) per row. That makes it: 2*14*14*14*14*14*14*14 = 210.827.008 steps!
Constantin is clearly a genius.
this looks like a pretty easy like lock, once you move the first and second pins you instantly figured out what to do, just takes some time to finish it
I never heard of this conent, creator, channel or typo, SO HOW DID I END UP HERE?? XD
Thats a puzzle for him
SAME HERE
I don't know, but I've been looking for a way out since 1995.
Same
Hey Mr.P, how's it going?
I can't complain! :)
I really wanna learn German going to German next year 👍
Just do it!
You can learn everything if you really work on it!
Mr.Puzzle I try my best love ur videos man!
Draeas Talonsbane It would be hilarious if Mr. Paladin commented on this.
Lockpicking skill increased
one video = one book
good videos
All you had to do was to open the damn lock CJ!
Wtf. Whats with the different angle!
Never mind. Still freaked me out
As I explained in the video it gets stuck what I put it flat on the table.
Therefore I had to change the camera angle.
Mr.Puzzle yeah i premepted and then edited after got through that bit
imagine this as your school locker lock
I know who can solve all the puzzles in the world, Professor Layton!
This problem can be easily solved with a flame thrower
Ghost Fox Or, y'know, just a fucking lighter?
• By No, not enough surface area on the flame
Geometry Dash Newbie It'll catch on fire
• By I understand where you’re coming from, but the surface area of the flame is smaller than the actual lock, and the wood on it looks like it has grease or water or something, so it might not even catch fire.
*flammenwerver
Don't say first, you obviously weren't
First
First
first, you obviously weren't
You.... i like you
Crippling Anxiety someone has to be.
This would keep me busy for atleast 10 years, and that's just the time I'll spend staring at it!
I should totally have this for my school locker...
I'm puzzled 😕
:P
_It's okay to cut out awkward silence in videos_
Perfect, I'll lock my bike up with this.
I can imagine being like "fuck it" and smashing the lock
