Cut and Restored Balloon by Brick Tilley

A unique effect using an ordinary balloon. The performer holds the balloon by the neck. Without any false moves he uses a pair of

scissors to cut a small portion of the bottom end off.

This cutting action is repeated three more times until all that remains is the neck of the mutilated balloon. Putting this to his lips,

he blows into the neck. Immediately the balloon 

restores itself and inflates to its full size. The performer then pops the balloon using the points of the scissors, startling his audience.

This can lead into a dove production if you wish.
