Can a needle pass right thru a balloon without popping it?

Ok, this is simple. You take a sharp needle, thread a thick cord through it's eye, then push EVERYTHING right through an inflated balloon!

The needle passes thru, the cord passes through, it's a clear balloon & the audience actually sees the penetration from start to finish. The balloon does not pop, it is still completely intact. Pure, simple magic.

At the end, you pop the balloon to prove it is ordinary.

We supply a nice quality oversized 18" needle, 12 clear balloons & the cord
