What do you guys think about this?!?!

There's a sample of him speaking on that page. Hmmm. Interesting, but I'm not sure if he's actually producing the tone of that note or rather just the... sound of the vocal chords colliding.
Well I opened up that sample in Pro Tools and analyzed the waveform.. hahah. The lowest he got was about 16.129 hertz if I'm right. The thing is, if he did actually hit this .393 hz, you'd only hear his vocal chords colliding once every 2.5 seconds! yeah.... I still am not sure I can believe THAT.
Attached is a screenshot from PT comparing my voice singing an A4 to his ~16.13 hz note (*this particular cycle of his voice isn't the one where I observed it at 16.13 hz.. this screen is of his voice just a tad before that when he was a bit higher. Eyeballing his waveform in this screen, it's more like 18.33 hz.. but 16.13 WAS the lowest I observed in the sample MP3).
And here's a quote from another article:
"When Menees sang "A Little Talk With Jesus" at a church in Canada, he hit a note so low that it shattered an Electro-Voice speaker."
