Freddie Mercury was 1.79 meters tall, weighed 81.6 kilograms and had dark brown eyes. Furthermore, they were able to conclude that at his most eccentric stage, the leader of Queen pushed his vocal system to the limit. In the images they found a strange physical phenomenon called subharmony, similar to Tuvan throat singing.

He could be a diva, he was very funny but he could also be very closed and very shy. He brought out the inner rock star in him on stage, and off stage he preferred a quiet life.

On November 24, 1991, Mercury died at the age of 45. His official cause of death was bronchopneumonia complicated by AIDS. Although he was not a religious person, his funeral was conducted by a Zoroastrian priest.
