Man With World's Deepest Voice Can Hit Infrasonic Notes

Posted by samzenpus on from the how-low-can-you-go dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The man who holds the Guinness record for the world's lowest voice can hit notes so low that only animals as big as elephants are able to hear them. American singer Tim Storms, who also has the world's widest vocal range, can reach notes as low as G-7 (0.189Hz), an incredible eight octaves below the lowest G on the piano."

    "But you can communication with elephants? Call them to rescue you and fight battles?"

    "No, but they can hear me."

      I'm not willing to rule out his ability to call elephants to battle.

      He's badass until proven otherwise.

    Is it so wrong for a man to do the shipping report?

    Maybe they mistook his breathing for infrasonic sound?

    Between him and Mariah Carey, they should both be able to summon every animal in the vicinity.

    Not sure he'd want to even try. He might end up on the business end of some elephant wood!
