  My girlfriend told me to drink water upside down. Bend over like you're touching the floor and drink a little water and swallow like that...it really works

I tried the drinking water upside down trick...IT WORKED!!! I can't believe it. I've been hiccupping for about 45 mins and I try the drinking water upside down trick once and I'm cured. Thank you ChessMarksTheSpot (Mark). Unbelievable!!!

Sorry Planeden I wasn't scared. I did laugh though - good try.

it is supposed to work by discombobulating you and confusing your body into forgetting to spasm.  when i tried it i got a bunch of water on the floor, out my nose, a big lump on my head, and the hiccups.

discombobulating is the best word I've heard today

I normally find myself discombobulated when I am playing chess!!

me too, but i think that is a result of the hiccup induced head injury and not the cause of the head injury.
