I've been locked out of my suitcase a couple of times for one reason or another and done exactly as per the video. It takes seconds, I thought most people realised that.

I have had the opposite problem, my hard suitcase (original Samsonite) got jostled mid flight and somehow the combination on one of the locks got reset. (Don't ask me how), so I had to try all combinations from 000 to 999 with the boss waiting to meet me downstairs, fortunately it was just over 100!, the boss was thirsty.
