Summary: Demonstration/trials of two methods of opening a locked external house door.
Description: I. The first method uses a specialised gun, mounted on a metal post secured in position using sandbags. The gun is aimed at the door lock and is fired remotely using a string on the trigger (which initially fails to work). Three shots are fired, but the effect is minimal.
II. The second method uses a metal post, pivoted at the bottom, with a large square horizontal metal plate at the top. The plate on the heavy falling pole opens the door first time. Sandbags are then attached to the metal plate and the pole is dropped again with the same positive result.
