Brute Force Search Space Analysis:
Search Space Depth (Alphabet):   26+26+10+33 = 95
Search Space Length (Characters):   15 characters
Exact Search Space Size (Count):
(count of all possible passwords
with this alphabet size and up
to this password's length)   468,219,860,267,
835,848,675,991,626,495
Search Space Size (as a power of 10):   4.68 x 1029
Time Required to Exhaustively Search this Password's Space:
Online Attack Scenario:
(Assuming one thousand guesses per second)   1.49 hundred thousand trillion centuries
Offline Fast Attack Scenario:
(Assuming one hundred billion guesses per second)   1.49 billion centuries
Massive Cracking Array Scenario:
(Assuming one hundred trillion guesses per second)   1.49 million centuries
Note that typical attacks will be online password guessing

Cheesy
You don't need to bruteforce it and get what password you used. It's SHA1. You just need to have another input that results in the same hash.
