3. Teaspoon of sugar under the tongue. Allow to dissolve.
Works for me most times.

5. Drink a glass of water upside down in one try
Even if it doesn't work, it's fun.

10. You'll just end up drowning
Or with water in you sinuses.

I hold my breath and push down on my diaphragm. Works after 2 or 3 tries every time.

12. I was hoping you wouldn't expect a second try
And it would work...


BOO!



Still nothing?

13. Nah.
I'm trying that pushing down on my diaphram thing, though. Hope that works.

15. Its like magic for me
Let your diaphragm rest between tries, just 1 or 2 minutes.

18. No problem
I learned that hiccups are caused by muscle spasms in your diapragm a long time ago and started trying that since stretching my other muscles makes them stop twitching when they get the mind to do so.

I'm glad I could provide the solution.

19. Here's a clever cure... I have no idea why it works
Think of the last white horse you saw. Think long & hard about it.
