It was the old jumping rubber band illusion. Esterline figured it out and has been analyzing, reinventing and improving on tricks ever since. He has never done anything else for an occupation other then Magician.

“There’s no corporate ladder in magic,” Esterline said.
Presto-changeo
But even if you haven’t seen him perform, there’s a good chance you have seen his work. He invents new illusions for his fellow magicians as well as himself, and has put his own spin on some of the classics.
“If I can’t add a different twist to it,” he said, ” I won’t do it.”

This interview is long but quite interesting. What does it take to be a professional Magician?
