    Dangle upsidedown off the edge of a bed or sofa, then start drinking and swallowing water while upsidedown.

      This one always works for me. I place the far side of the glass at my upper lip, and slowly bend forward until im drinking upside down. Works like a charm (or gets water up my nose)

        I always did this as a kid, and it ended up permanently curing me of the hiccups. I didn’t have more than 1 hiccup in over 25 years. I had a mild case in the last few years, and I genuinely enjoyed the novelty.
