The hiccups occur when the vagus nerve is irritated (which is a nerve that runs from the abdomen to the brain). They best way to stop it is to make the body forget about it tricking it to think something more important is going on. One way to do this is to hold you breath, this makes the levels of carbon dioxide rise so your body is more concerned about lowering the levels which then makes it switch to dealing with that .
