Ma, ma, black sheep, have you any wool

Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full. So a little bit of a
background on what makes this attempt especially unusual
0:17
is the fact, as you can tell, I
don't have a low speaking voice
0:23
I am also, I know you can't tell this, but I'm under 5'2". I have what's
called hypermobility syndrome, so I'm able to flex and move my body
0:31
in more extreme ways than most normal humans. And so it's theorized that my
vocal larynx as well is able to drop lower than most humans in the world

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,
la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

note right here we're looking for the intensity and the waveform
1:21
but then also it's registering at 33.57 hertz. Around,
I think it's a world record note. Congratulations
1:31
It's a world record as soon as I go past here. So when I scale from here as soon as I
hit to there it's a world record. C1. C1. C1. C1. C1. C1. C1. C1. C1. C1. C1. C1. C1. C1

The highest pitch range I can do
from the E6 and F6 and have at times
2:15
Some days I just do it effortlessly. Other days it's, according to
the doctors, it depends too on where your hormones are in cycles
2:23
So some days you have more elasticity
and ability to slide much easily
2:27
The normal human voice can only hit an E6 and possibly
an F6 before you go into what's called a whistle range
2:37
Whistle range. Not to say there's not another
unusual human out there like me somewhere
2:49
I'm sure there is. And yeah,
so don't try this at home kids
