Bobby pins are for movies, handcuffs and luggage locks, and not much else. Anything above the most basic lock imaginable is bobby pin proof really. They're just not the right type of metal or the right size and shape.
They're good for handcuffs and for toy boxes though.
Below is a link to a video of how to use a bobby pin to open these locks. If you're trying to get into anything above that level of lock though, you're going to need a better tool.
Any lock that can be opened with a bobby pin is going to work on essentially the same principal as the handcuffs trick.

It's possible - remotely. It's also possible to flip a coin ten times and have it come up heads each time. It's not likely however. The lock parts are made of steel. It would take an extraordinary bobby pin to harm those parts. Even if it could, chances are that you'd cut your hand apart before you did any damage to the lock parts, even if you had a bobby pin strong enough to do so. Is it possible to damage the lock parts with a bobby pin? Yes. Is it likely? No, not remotely.
