For an average person, it usually takes around one to two minutes to change from one simple outfit to another, and that’s like that fastest time you can do it!
But for Malaysian magician duo, Avery Chin and Sylvia Lim, they can change into 18 costumes in less than one minute!
To celebrate the upcoming national holiday week in China, Happy Valley theme park in Wuhan, Hubei had invited a range of talented magicians including husband and wife pair Chin and Lim, to perform at the venue throughout the special occasion.
Chin and Lim then took the opportunity to attempt to break the Guinness World Records for the “Most Costume Change Illusions in One Minute by an Individual”.

A few weeks before, the record was previously held by fellow Malaysian magicians, Mark and Pinky from Vivas Magic, who accomplished a total of 16 changes out of 17 costumes, at Sunway Pyramid on 11 September 2016.
The event was attended by a representative from Guinness World Records, Charles Wharton to ensure that all of the rules were followed.
The best part of the performance was during the finale when Chin threw a bag of glittery confetti over Lim, revealing her final costume – a beautiful long white gown!
