Caffeine.

It slightly speeds up your metabolism meaning your body needs more oxygen and glucose to be circulated through your blood, thus an increased heart rate.

How does music effects heartbeat?

The only way I can think that music would affect the heart beat! is by increasing the amount of the hormone adrenalin secreted by the pituitary gland. Andrenalin control the pacemaker cells of the heart and regulates the heart beat. So if there is more adrenalin, the heart beat would go faster. The same would occur with Coffee/Caffeine.

What happens to a persons heart rate when they play video games?

Most video games will increase someone's heart rate. The main games that increase heart rate are racing (especially off-road or street racing) games, horror games, fast paced shooters, etc. Racing games like Need for Speed Series, Burnout Series, Flatout Series, Midnight Club Series, Motorstorm Series, etc increase it the most. Though if you play horror games like Alien vs. Predator 2, F.E.A.R, Doom Series, etc you can increase your heart rate considerably because of the constant spooks from bad guys or monsters or whatever jumping out the darkness at you suddenly. Violent shooters actually increase heart rate the least. Only a few shooters increase the heart rate significantly. An example would be the Brothers in Arms series.
