At some point, whether in person or on TV, you've had the opportunity to see a magician do something truly mystifying. They perform a magic trick so amazing it leaves you sitting in your chair mulling over the infinite different ways they pulled off the feat.

But what would magic look like on Periscope? Live, uncut, and often with complete strangers could a magician capture their audience the same way they do on stage?

While Jon Jacques has been a magician for almost his entire life, there's nothing supernatural about his success on Periscope. He took what he was already doing well and tweaked it to excel on Periscope.

But could it go so well that he'd feel okay quitting his day job to pursue magic on Periscope full time?
