A town in South Cotabato has attempted to break the Guinness World Record for the most pedicures given in eight hours.

Up to 160 nail technicians in the town took part in the effort.

The target was to give pedicure services to around 2,500 clients to break the world record of 1,083 currently held by Toronto and Ontario, Canada in 2015.

"Paspas lang sir kay sanay naman. Sigurado ra nako nga limpyo,” one of the nail technicians said.

According to the local government of Tampakan, a total of 1,447 people received a pedicure after eight hours.

“Way ito para ma makilala natin ang ating mga local pedicurist na skilled. We are confident that we can beatt the 1,083 people na i beat natin for the world record,” Technical Advisory Head, Rowell Distura, said.

The local government awaits an official announcement from the Guinness World Records, as of this writing.
