I feel left hanging after reading the article. It doesn't really detail much at all about how Hobbs was able to pick the locks.

Further, Mental Floss itself seems to have in place one of those "you can't click back" mechanisms that spams your back button history.

I usually overcome such mechanisms on Chrome by holding down the back arrow until the list of past pages comes up, then going back to the page just before the last one.
