The first thing you have to do is blow the balloon up
because nobody is going to be impressed with this no matter how good a job you have done
twisting it.
- Jim Callahan, on the secrets of world
class balloon sculpting (photo

Sure people are shocked when they find out that the same guy who owns Applied Thought
Technologies, lectures, designs and optimizes learning and psychological systems, is a
Master Magician, and Paranormalist also presents a specialty act with balloons. And
not just any act but the pinnacle of balloon performance art.
You watch the audience and no matter who who they may be, they are
riveted.
They are involved and become part of the act. The show/act could serve as a text book
example of how to structure any presentation or show (as a matter of fact he uses it to
explain the psychology of group dynamics to high school and collage students).
The act is so well designed that it is guaranteed to play for any audience and has been
presented with great success for some of the world's best known companies at sales
meetings, conventions, lectures, banquets, trade shows, as well as in highs schools,
festivals, charity events, and television. Proving that it really does play for any
audience demographic.

The
Killer
Peruvian Balloon Flower©
A balloon sculpture so dangerous
that it has claimed the lives of five Peruvian balloon twisters in the past three years.
Or so goes the tail that Jim begins as he leads his
audience through the most memorable balloon presentation of all time.
"When I was a kid my father used to get
mad at me for behaving like this. Now I get paid for it." An explanation as
the audience recovers from a truly shocking turn in the tale. The unexpected
appearance of a artificial hand and Jim's subsequent behavior.
The entire audience becomes his unwitting assistants
and is engaged as part of the presentation.
Often to close the show Jim will demonstrate his
surreal version of group hypnosis.
With the use of the Hypno-Disk the entire audience
is treated to an experience that one would think only possible with the aid of Hollywood
computer animation. Click Here
