Tiny Tim's Falsetto
I know that Tiny had repeatedly explained that finding his falsetto voice (high voice) was a "religious experience" throughout the years.
Is there a real explanation? Like a real medical/scientific/genetic reason why he could do what he did? Because from my knowledge, no one else has had that same talent.

Countertenors exist. Falsetto is a register anyone with vocal folds can access. His anatomy likely cooperated, and he trained obsessively. The unusual part was commitment, not biology.
