If its going on an hour, maybe it's a chronic thing for this person, and there's not much they can do. So they are just waiting it out.

Wait, you guys can just stop when you want to? I suffer from painful ones sometimes, and absolutely nothing stops them.

Have you tried holding your breath for as long as you can?
Supposedly they are caused by a CO2 imbalance. IIRC

All the tricks including that one (drinking water, using a straw, upside down, etc.) have never worked for me. My body isn’t normal, though.

I saw a gizmo on shark tank that supposedly cures hiccups. It was a breathing device that basically resets your diaphragm. For me, a teaspoon of peanut butter has always worked for me.

Any sort of irritation or infection in the diaphragm can cause hiccups. I had 'em for 3 days, went to the doctor and was prescribed antibiotics which did clear it up by day 4 as I recall. NO FUN.
