Hear the world's deepest voice

Report by Lindsay Brown

Tim Storms holds the Guinness World Record for having the widest vocal range and reaching the lowest note.

It goes so low, the human ear cannot hear it.

He said: "My lowest note would be somewhere around, if you were to take another piano and sit at the bottom on the left side of the piano, that would be about how low I can go - eight octaves lower than the lowest G on the piano."

His talent was discovered after he sang at a Christian summer camp as a child, and it deepened even further when he reached adulthood.

Decca Records conducted a search, along with the composer, Paul Mealor, for a low bass voice and found Tim, who sang in a low E the album, Tranquility, with the St. Petersburg Chamber Choir.

He features on several tracks on an album with some songs from the composer of the music for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's wedding in the UK in 2011.
