Because Helium is lighter than the oxygen and other gases we breathe, when it passes through your vocal chords, it makes them vibrate quicker than the heavier gases like Oxygen-(8) and such. So because they cause your vocal chords to vibrate quicker, it tightens up your vocal chords and makes the pitch of your voice go up.

What is the opposite of helium?
It is a gas that weighs 6 pound. sulfurhexafluoride helium weighs -6 pounds. that's why when you inhale helium, your voice goes up. and when you inhale sulfur hexafluoride your voice is weighed down to a lower voice. it sounds awsome.
What happens to the voice of a diver breathing in a mixture of oxygen and helium?
If helium replaces the nitrogen in normal air, the pitch of the diver's voice will increase considerably.
Why does your voice changes after you drink helium?
You don't drink helium, you inhale it. When you then attempt to speak, since the density of helium is less than that of air, you voice has a higher timbre.Note: Helium does not contain oxygen. If you breathe helium alone, you will tend to pass out. If you don't get oxygen for a sustained period of time, you will die.
What gas makes your voice sound funny?
Helium
How can you make your voice funny?
Try sucking in helium found most commonly in balloons. Only the balloons that need a weight to keep them down have helium in them - because helium is lighter than air. Anyway helium will make your voice sound high- pitched therefore making your voice sound funny. Helium in big intakes can damage your lungs; but don't worry you would have to suck in a lot to damage them.
What can helium do?
Helium can change the tone of a humans voice in an helium-rich atmosphere.
Can helium change a heavy voice?
no it can change to high voices but not low
Why does helium cause a voice change?
Helium causes a change in the voice because it is a different density than regular air, so when it is in your chest and passes through your vocal cords it vibrates at a different frequency.
Can helium change your voice forever?
Generally, no but Helium does cause damage to your vocal cords that can result in additional complications if overused.
How do you change the pitch of your voice when you want to?
sucking in helium makes the pitch higher
How do you make your voice squeaky with a balloon?
The change in voice is caused by the helium allowing the vocal cords to vibrate differently in the lighter gas.
What is the name and chemical formula for the gas that caused the professor voice to change?
It is the element helium, symbol He. The change in sound is because helium is much lighter than air and thus the speed of sound in helium is much faster than the speed of sound in air. This change in the speed of sound retunes the resonant chambers in the vocal tract to a higher frequency, making the voice sound "chirpy" while the helium is present.

What is helium most commonly used for?
helium balloons and make your voice sound weird
What happens if you inhail helium?
Helium will change the tone of your voice. The lighter gas allows the vocal cords to vibrate at a different frequency. However, helium does not sustain life. If you breath too much of it you could pass out, or even die. The first result of reduced oxygen to the brain is brain damage. The second result is death. Breathing in pure helium deprives the body of oxygen, as if you were holding your breath. If you couldn't breathe at all, you'd start to die in minutes-as soon as your body exhausted the supply of oxygen stored in the blood. But helium speeds up this process: When the gas fills your lungs, it creates a diffusion gradient that washes out the oxygen. In other words, each breath of helium you take sucks more oxygen out of your system. After inhaling helium, the body's oxygen level can plummet to a hazardous level in a matter of seconds. You don't have to worry about fatal asphyxiation if you're sucking from a helium balloon at a party. At worst you'll keep going until you get lightheaded and pass out-at which point you'll stop inhaling helium and your body's oxygen levels will return to normal. Of more concern is the possibility that you'll hurt yourself when you fall down. Remember, the first result of reduced oxygen to the brain is brain damage. The second result is death.
Does helium make your voice high?
yes
