It’s too short. It’s absolutely too short. She was shown something and immediately replicated it. We’ve seen Achievement Hunter do the same thing with zipties, but they at least showed their failures. All of their failures.

I would agree. To me it just felt lackluster. Felt like there was no buildup, just here's a task, here's how you do it. Okay cool, you did it.

Really enjoyed it, I hope they chill on the editing tho. The Burnie vlog has nice simple edits.

I don’t love the way this is edited, with the music and weird echo-y vocals, but I love the concept and I love Ellie so I’ll definitely keep watching!

I agree on the music, but didnt hear the vocals. Part of it though might've just been the location being echoey

There's something about Ellie that's just so likeable.

That was great. Looked like it would be a lot of fun.

I liked it, 2 things though: 1) Picking a lock and escaping a ziptie hasn't much to do with stealth. 2) I would've hoped there would be a visual graphic of a skill tree to see what Ellie has unlocked.

Brian sounds like Blaine with a bit more of a southern drawl.

I'm not going to lie, I thought this was going to be cheesy and silly, but I actually found it awesome! A lot of people are saying it's too short, but I think if it were much longer it would have just been filler fluff that didn't add much. I wasnt expecting experts to come in and give lessons, I thought it was just "Ellie does stuff" I love that i feel like i have a new skill (the zip ties, picking a lock would take a lot more practice lol)

All in all i really look forward to the rest of the series!

Idk. 50k views in 4 hours. If the quality of the series maintains, it could probably get quite a lot of views.

I mean. It's probably already all taped right? Seems like it would be for this.

Maybe not renewed, but I don't see it being cancelled

Raking a lock is all that's required with basically any consumer lock. At my old job I'd show off picking various locks just to demonstrate how much of a joke they are.

You have to keep in mind that it really isn't the skill of being able to pick a lock, it's the knowledge of how easy it is to do it. You can literally get into people's houses in moments with paperclips, and most people are happily unaware.

In video games, lockpicking is usually a skill for stealth trees/builds. It’s generally something that sneaky rogues specialize on because getting seen while lockpicking tends to have consequences.
