How to explode a balloon without touching it?

Magnifying glass? Yes, but not this time.

Trick is very simple.

Step 1: Distraction

Distract the audience by hovering your hand over the balloon.

If you are lucky enough, balloon should explode.

Step 2: The Secret

Secret of the trick is juice from orange skin or any other citrus fruit skin.

Tiny drop of juice will make the balloon pop.

There are a few way to perform the trick.

You can wet the finger with the juice and touch the balloon.

By doing that, balloon will explode.

Another way to do it is by squeezing the skin in direction of the balloon.

You can try to do it discreetly with another hand.

The amount of juice needed is very little.

3rd way to do it is by wetting your hand with the juice.

Move your hand on top of the balloon and try to shake off a drop of juice.

Unfortunately, it's not that easy to do it. It will require a lot of oranges to get enough juice to make your hands wet enough.
