For many decades, the physical mechanism that causes the cracking sound as a result of bending, twisting, or compressing joints was uncertain.

Beighton score criteria: one point for each elbow and knee that hyperextends by 10 degrees or more (4 points), one for each little finger that bends back by 90 degrees (2 points), one for each thumb which can be touched to the forearm (2 points), and one for touching the floor with the palms.

True locking happens when the intra-articular structure (e.g. ligaments) [1] is damaged, or a loose body is present inside the joint, or there is a meniscal tear. The knee can be unlocked by rotating the leg and full movement can be restored.
