He is a third-generation magician. At 17, Scott answered an audition posting for the movie ''[[Ragtime (film)|Ragtime]]'' and got the job to re-create [[Houdini]]'s stunt of escaping from a [[straitjacket]] while dangling upside-down over the streets of New York City. He was a protégé of one of world's foremost escapists, [[James Randi]], and joined him for his first world tour, celebrating his 18th birthday in Sydney, Australia. While in Australia, Interrante appeared with [[James Randi]] in the film ''Explorer'' and assisted in public paranormal challenges in an effort to give away US$100,000 to anyone who could produce such pre-determined paranormal events under fair and supervised conditions. Interrante has won awards from the [[Society of American Magicians]], the [[International Brotherhood of Magicians]] and the [[International Magicians Society]].{{Citation needed|date=May 2011}}
