"Doctors are body mechanics" reminds me of Richard Turner.
Richard Turner is the greatest card-trick man who ever lived.
He doesn't call himself a magician, but a "card mechanic."
Penn Jillette reveres the man. Here's his appearance on Fool Us. Note how Penn addresses him: "It's an honor, sir."
Oh, and he is also blind.
Mechanic is slang among cheaters for a dealer who's good at rigging a deck.
