Most magic tricks performed in one minute
In 2021, magician Avery decided to challenge himself with a magic-themed record that not only tested his expertise in executing magic routines, but also his speed!
In just 60 seconds he managed to perform flawlessly 37 unique tricks, using things like:
- Cards 🃏
- Flowers 💐
- Fire 🔥
- Dice 🎲
and many more, to create an eye-catching show!
Most costume change illusions in one minute
Avery Chin and Sylvia Lim, more simply known as Avery and Sylvia, are renowned International Quick Change Artists in Malaysia.
Quick Change is the act of changing costumes so quickly and seamlessly that the audience is left wondering how, when and where the costumes disappear each time.
This is Avery and Sylvia’s signature act, which they have performed in America, Europe and Asia. 🌎
So, when they decided to attempt breaking the record for the most costume change illusions in one minute, we almost had no doubt that they would succeed!
And so they did – with a remarkable 24 costume changes. 😎
Most Smarties eaten in one minute blindfolded using chopsticks
Do you know how to use chopsticks? 🥢
Well, Avery clearly does… and he can do it with his eyes closed!
That is why he decided to attempt this record in celebration of Guinness World Records Day (GWR Day) 2022.
We saved this record for last… and we challenge you to try breaking it!
Here is what you will need:
- Chopsticks 🥢
- Smarties or M&Ms 🟠
- A blindfold or piece of cloth that can be tied around your head
- A stopwatch ⏱️
And, in case you are not a chopstick master like magician Avery, here are the simple steps to using them:
Step 1: grip the sticks as you would a pencil.
Step 2: place the middle finger between the two sticks.
Step 3: move the top stick up and down using your thumb and index finger.
Step 4: start by picking up larger food to get used to the process, then move on to smaller food!
