Effect: A magic wand mystically penetrates a long, skinny, solid animal balloon.

Presentation: A cylinder is shown with a wand (or pencil) through the centre. The cylinder is rotated on the wand. The wand is removed and may be tapped on a table to show that is solid. An animal balloon (260Q) is inflated inside the cylinder. The wand is now pushed through the balloon, carefully — slowly — dramatically — and magically.

This is very easy to perform, and can be a great extra for any balloon act.
