There were several angles of the scissorist. It is through these angles that we are able to deduce that the scissors are, in fact, regular scissors.

Another observation: the scissorist used both hands to use the scissors. We imagine this is to offset exhaustion, but perhaps there's something else to it.

Finally, it is important to understand that you absolutely cannot hear the scissors in this song.

Take a look at the performance and judge for yourself: does the joy of seeing someone using scissors during a musical performance outweigh the general weirdness of it and the fact that you cannot hear the scissors at all? Maybe!

For those in the U.S., the performance can be viewed through Consequence of Sound.
