How I cure my hiccups

I don't get hiccups very often. But I do. And I find them MOST annoying.

I always drank water to cure them and it took some time (about 500 ml of water) to fix them. And now a friend told me the ultimate way that cured it in one gulp :D

Here it is:

• Stand straight up. Take a mouthful of water but don't swallow it. 
• Bend down as if to touch your knees.  Breath through nose and feel comfortable.
• And gulp down the water. 
• Now comfortably stand straight as before. Breathe. 

No need for a sense of urgency in the entire process. Just do it comfortably. I am amazed I did not know this.
