Voice Experiment With Sulfur Hexafluoride Gives A Creepy Deep Voice
This could be a new trend in radio. If only Sulfur Hexafluoride were available here at the station, then I could sing like Barry White.
Sulfur Hexafluoride is a chemical manufactured in New Jersey. It's used for welding as sparks won't fly through it. It's a safe gas that won't react with anything in your body or displace oxygen. Wikipedia says as with all gasses, the density of SF 6 affects the resonance frequencies of the vocal tract, thus changing drastically the vocal sound qualities, or timbre, of those who inhale it.
Things you can do with a creepy voice:
- Be the star of a murder mystery
- Work at a haunted house
- Freak out the person working the drive-thru
- Call in sick at work
- Take care of that bully on the playground
- Go to Uticon as Darth Vader
You could sound like:
- Brad Garrett
- James Earl Jones
- Keith David
- Vin Diesel
- Sylvester Stallone
