Even G8 would make it 6 octaves only. But it could easily be checked. Let him sing to every key on the piano (which spans eight octaves).

^ I wonder if the people who say Dimash's highest note is a D8 are sort of deaf (like colorblinds), or if there's another reason for this misinformation. Or perhaps there's a problem in my ears? Though all academically trained people praise my musical ear immensely...

Ah... Ah... Ah...............................................................

This would last forever...

According to a vast majority of academical vocal trainers, any head voice or falsetto is not within the range. So even 4 octaves seems miraculous.

Dimash's final note is a G8. The clueless stupids say it is D8 everywhere. This is nothing but the comedy in the world.

Dimash's voice is very close to 8 octaves. Or "was". He could even reach 10 octaves. It is not impossible.

Take care...

About the "eight octave voice":

Quote from Wikipedia: Kudaibergen is well-recognized for his extremely wide and developed vocal range. His sung range expands 5 octaves and 10 semitones, from E2 to C6 to F#6 and, finally, D8.

I will admit that this is more than 5 octaves, but nothing like 8 octaves.

There is no "likely" about the grasshopper. It is a biological impossibility.


You or Jeanine (it is really a confusing thing, even if I sense that your personalities are very different, but "statements" are quite alike) claimed that a guy with 5 octaves of voice is "the best" in this regard. Sorry, but even I can use 5 octaves of voice. I mentioned Dimash Kudaibergen, who has almost 8 octaves of voice. No reply from you, as usual. Because you're always right (!)

I certainly am not always right; I'll be the first to admit it. But I know a bit about biology. You need not trust me in this regard though:

I did not even mention that the exoskeleton of insects is also a restricting factor.

Just for comparison:

Percentage of oxygen in the air today: 21%.

Percentage of oxygen in the air in the Carboniferous: 35% (it actually rose from 20% to 35% during that geological period).

Friede, my "title" was a clickbait, of a sort. Tongue

But with good intentions, so that we can falsify some. Thanks for your input. Thumbs Up

Anyone else, other than Icarium, cares to add some interesting things here?

The grasshopper story can't be true. Insects of this size could only grow during the Carboniferous because there was much more oxygen in the air during that time. The trachea breathing system of insects is inferior to the breathing system of vertebrates and only allows them to grow to a certain size.

^ Death Oath!!! You are a true explorer, a holy diver Mike!!! You actually found a unique and precious pearl! There was a tragic death, I guesss the founder of the band died some years ago. They are truly an impressive, vicious band. Lots of bands from Istanbul and Ankara should worship them! Wink

I honestly have no idea why that song was called YOUNG TURKS. The lyrics have nothing to do with Turkey!




BTW do you know this band? I discovered this last year and it's a great metal underground band from Kayseri
