I hearby donate my mom to the cause of hiccup science. She will hiccup
on demand for you whenever you feed her cold hamburger. I would not
make a good subject, though, because even though I often get the hiccups,
I can't do it on demand; they just comes and goes randomly.
But seriously, it seems like sudden changes in ambient temperature and
pressure are often associated with hiccups. Also, anything that causes
you to breathe 'out-of-phase' like being scared will do it.
