What did Hisoka do in the Hunter Exam?


In the first Hunter Exam of the series (Hisoka's second),
[he](http://hunterxhunter.wikia.com/wiki/Hisoka) was introduced into the
series removing another applicant's arms from his body for bumping into him
and not apologizing.

What did he actually do? We know Hisoka's abilities are Bungee Gum and Texture
Surprise, but they don't explain how the arms are converting into flower
petals as seen above.




I highly guess they made that up to convert this scene into a less violent
type for the younger-age audience. In the actual manga chapter 5, this was
what it looked like:

You can see that the arm is chopped off but with no flower petals whatsoever
and judging by the angle, the blood ought to be seen. They probably did not
want to reveal that part and instead took it from the side angle by
"magically" making the arm disappear.
