Michael Jackson once owned the actual skeleton used in the 1980 film The Elephant Man.

He reportedly wanted to buy the real remains of Joseph Merrick, the man whose life inspired the film, but the hospital refused. The story became one of the strangest myths surrounding MJ.

Here's an even rarer detail: Michael was so fascinated by the story that he reportedly offered millions for the remains.

Michael Jackson helped create the sound of a heartbeat for his song “Smooth Criminal.”

The famous heartbeat-like sound in the track was inspired by Michael's own heartbeat. He recorded his heartbeat and incorporated it into the song's production to give it a more personal, almost cinematic feel.

That's one of those details that makes listening to Smooth Criminal even cooler. 🖤
