Nobody saw a bottomless microphone exist until it happened to Freddie, accidentally. It really was an accident as it happened during one of Queen’s earlier shows. Just as they finished up a song, Mercury’s microphone stand had simply broken in half.

Nevertheless, he didn’t replace it with a brand new one. Instead, he just kept performing like the whole stand never split in half. From that moment on, the bottomless microphone was created, much to his enjoyment.
