Metro Manila (CNN Philippines) — The Guinness World Records, the official reference book of record-setting global achievements, made the Philippines’ 117th Independence Day celebration doubly memorable last Friday (June 12) by bestowing the country not just one, but two new world records.
Guinness posted on its official website and social media accounts Friday that the Philippines has set the world record for the “Biggest Human Smiley” and the “Most Number of People Wearing Costume Masks.”

The costume masks record, on the other hand, needed a much bigger effort — with a humongous crowd of 30,050 people taking part to accomplish the Guinness target.
