I just put it on my locker on thursday and on friday I couldn't get into my locker, the key wouldn't work! On Saturday I brought my picks and picked it open! But the padlock is still not working, haven't took it apart yet! Lucky I kept my paycheck in my pocket and not in the locker that friday!

It shows the entire pin stack shooting up into the bible and then the lower pins dropping below the shearline. In reality, the bottom pins stay stationary and transfer their enegy to the top pins which are propelled into the bible. Just like when you are playing pool and hit a row of billiard balls, only the last one will move.
Some people argue that the bottom pins do enter the bibble, but if this was true than you wouldn't be able to bump a lock upside-down because bumping would rely on gravity.
