This Japanese artist creates animal-shaped balloons that must be seen to be believed

Everyone will love to host Japanese artist Masayoshi Matsumoto on their birthday. This amazing balloon artist has made a name for himself and is now coming back with an amazing series of animal-shaped balloons full of details.

"I started creating them a few years ago, and got inspired by pictures of animals and wanted to see if I could create realistic animals myself", Matsumoto said. Creating each animal takes about two hours, and for the more complex animals the work takes about six hours.

His work becomes much better and more amazing when you realize that he doesn't use markers, glue or any other material. All animals are made up of lots of air from the lungs, and rounding of balloon.
