How to Make a Balloon Sword

On behalf of Expert Village, my name is Paul Anderson from the ABC Circus here in Hollywood, Florida. And we're going to do "How To Be A Clown". So what do clowns do? A lot of funny things. But a very common thing in clowning is balloon making. And if you really want to be a clown, of course you need to learn how to make balloons. Now the hardest thing about balloons is to learn how to blow them up. I train really hard. Every day when I wake up I do tongue push ups. One, two, three. After twenty tongue push ups, I can blow up a balloon. We say in the clown business, the more air you can put in the balloon, the smarter you are. The less air you can put in the balloon, well, if you need me to explain that. Well, blowing up the balloon is hard. A lot of people use pumps these days. I'll show you a real simple one. Make an "M", squeeze in the middle of the "M", twist the top two, and then you have what every little boy wants. A really bid sword. On guard.
