Is it normal to be nervous of blowing balloons up?

  • Thats very true nakedman and in my case it seems to be the latter. Im still dead nervous and scared balloons burst with a bang but I think the 'flirting with danger' thing is a fascination. I have to say that I blow a few balloons up periodically to keep the phobia at bay and have actually got to the point where i have a great success rate in achieving the maximum balloon size without popping any. It never cures anything though.

    • Have you seen those people who can blow up hot water bottles? Probably on YouTube or something I expect.

      • Yes i have seen that but blowing up a hot water bottle doesnt seem to have the same appeal as balloons. I had a balloon phobia as a child and this is what led to me having a desire to push the boundaries with blowing them up now. Plenty about balloons being blown up on youtube and a few hot water bottles too. Its the loud bang when they burst thats scary
