This is my first experience with balloon popping and it was absolutely exhilarating! I nervously squeeze the balloons, anticipating when they will pop. First I tease by squeezing the smaller red balloon, though it doesn't want to pop with my nails so I use my small, sharp scissors. I pop the gold balloon by squeezing it as hard as I can, digging my nails into it, then I let it burst. I pop a pink balloon and then finish off with my big red Rifco/BW 36". While bouncing on my big red, I build up the anticipation and finally pop it with my sharp scissors.
