Free Magic Trick - Jumping Rubber Bands

What happens with this Free magic trick is that after you looping a rubber band over your first two fingers,it jumps to the second two
fingers.
The method for this free magic trick is as follows.
Begin by placing a rubber band over your forefinger and middle finger as shown in Figure 1. Bring the rubber band all the way down to
the base of the fingers. Hold your hand so its back is facing the audience.
Pull the rubber band with your other hand to show that it is solid, and then at a point when the rubber band is still pulled a little bit out
towards you, curl your fingers down as in Figure 2.
From the audience's view, it looks like the rubber band is still around only two of your fingers.
Pause for just an instant, and then straighten your fingers out. The band will instantly jump over to your ring finger and pinky
(Figure 3)
To make the rubber band jump back to your first two fingers, follow the same moves again.
If you twist a second rubber band over the fingers above the first band, as in Figure 4, so that the fingers appear tied together, and then
follow the same moves for the trick as above, the first rubber band will still be able to jump, seeming to penetrate right through the second
band.
