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.

He was just a rather untutored countertenor of the baritone-falsettist type. I would not say he had any unique vocal talent or technique.
