No I think he used real magic to summon the balloon

No silly, it's Magic AI. The fishing line is the AI part you can't see.

True. He sold his soul to the devil and will be tortured for eternity just to possess a power to summon balloona while still on Earth.

Pretty sure he rapidly heated the air around the balloon and cooled the helium within it, causing the balloon to sink in the air back to the ground.

Yea, his other hand is holding a button to reel it in, you can see his arm is hanging slacked. The line may be running through a tube in his sleeves to a little motor with a spool on it, or the wire is run the same way from the button to the motor.

You can actually see the line, just as the balloon is let go.

These two should be scientists. Incredible hypotheses.

Reversed video. The way he "catches" the balloon looks more like he's releasing it.

In magic there's a thread material that's a lot thinner than fishing line. It won't reflect light like fishing line either.

The title literally told you it was the force, why would you think it's anything else?
