I was excited to finally have a consistent balloon swallow. However, you never actually tie off the
balloon in performance, adding to any suspicion the audience has. In addition to this (and perhaps
the biggest problem), this gimmick is LOUD. You will need to be very far from your audience or have
loud music playing in order to pull this trick off with the gimmick (hence why there is no real
sound in the trailer). It also makes inflating the balloon more difficult and take longer. I will
stick with the traditional method for now. Perhaps this gimmick concept can be refined for a better
effect in the future.
