      That would be a little bit hard to get perfectly right. It's a very delicate balance and just the squeezing he does throughout this short performance would release some of the contents of the balloon, meaning the mixture wouldn't be the same from beginning to end.

    The performance is so good that it causes sensory interaction. He executed so many associative queues perfectly that it triggers your brain to perceive it as a whole with multiple senses. Basically your brain is tricked so thoroughly that your brain fills in all the gaps that make it not real. For example you kind of feel like it’s happening not just seeing it because your brain is perceiving it. Even though you know it’s fake, it feels real. It’s a good example of top-down processing…
