Balloon magic

Postby taneous » Mar 1st, '04, 10:52



Could anyone here recommend a book that includes balloon magic with balloon twisting balloons - like blowing a balloon up from the wrong side, eating a balloon, etc. (stuff other than needle through balloon). Dewey had a book - something like "Balloon and Clown notebook" or something like that - but I think it is out of print. Anything else would be helpful - thanks :)

I don't have this so I can't really recommend it, but I have heard others recommend it highly.

Its called "Balloon Oriented Magic". ISBN: 1-931084-01-7

I wrote a balloon trick ages ago, involving your balloon dog 'fido' who eats a playing card. It's a 'pick a card, pop the balloon, reveal the card' trick, but rather good.

I'll dig it out for you.
