Inva Mula - The Diva Dance (The Fifth Element)
'Her vocalizations may seem beyond physical possibility, but it was stated in the movie's Special Edition documentary that her voice was not digitally altered (in "The Diva Dance" song however, at a point precisely 1 min. 06 secs., a distinct wind instrument can be heard overdubbing her voice).'

1. Charles Kellogg (he had the widest vocal range ever (12 1/2 octaves) and he used his throat to produce those sounds, not whistle register. It's TRUE!!!!
'Morning Edition, November 26, 2003 •Charles Kellogg (1868-1949) could sing like a bird. Literally. At least that's the story, and the Humboldt Redwoods State Park Visitor Center is sticking to it. Kellogg would stand in front of an audience, open his mouth, and out would come an aviary of birdcalls. He claimed to have the larynx of a bird (called a syrinx). NPR's Ketzel Levine tells Kellogg's story as the first part of her series, Big Trees and the Lives They've Changed.
Kellogg maintained that physicists measured his voice with a tuning fork, and discovered it could vibrate up to 40,000 cycles per second. Compare that with the upper range of the human voice -- around 500 cycles per second -- and you get some idea of just how high the pitch of his voice might have been. If true, Kellogg would have been capable of producing sounds inaudible to the human ear!
Though a consummate performer -- he traveled at home and abroad doing vaudeville-style tricks with his voice -- Kellogg had a mission. He was a humanitarian and a naturalist who wanted, he wrote, "To awaken interest in the great redwood forests of California, and to assist in their preservation." His lasting legacy is The Travel Log, the world's first mobile home, hand-hewn from a chunk of fallen redwood (Sequoia sempervirens), and mounted on the back of a 1917 Nash Quad truck.
From 1917-1921, Kellogg took his Travel Log on the road. He drove it across the country four times, coast-to-coast, bringing word of the redwoods to people who had never heard, let alone imagined, there could be such trees. He spoke of the accelerated logging taking place in the redwood forests, made impassionate pleas for the trees' preservation, and spread the word about a fledgling organization looking for members. It was called the Save The Redwoods League.'
'His human voice was analyzed and found to be normal, under 4,000 Hz; however, his bird voice soared into the inaudible, above 14,000 Hz. In August of 1926, he did a "voice flame" demonstration on KGO radio in Oakland, CA, where he astonished thousands by extinguishing a two-foot flame in Berkeley, CA, with nothing more than his voice over the airways. His voice reputedly had a range of twelve and one-half octaves, while the normal range of a singing voice is just two and one-half.'):
