00:00Woah!

00:06Woah!

00:07Ugh!

00:13Woah!

00:16Woah!

00:17That's a hiccup!

00:24Bucket list number one.

00:26Lack of sleep or sleepiness.

00:28Sleepiness is unstoppable.

00:30Hiccups are an involuntary reflex.

00:33This is a result of the stretch of the jaw

00:35and the increase of blood flow to our face and neck.

00:38At the same time, hiccups are the deep breathing

00:40and the rapid heartbeats

00:42or the beating of the heart

00:43that also speeds up the cycle of blood and spinal fluid.

00:47This has the potential to cool off the brain

00:50and also increase our level of alertness.

00:54A person's hiccups usually last for 4 to 7 seconds.

00:58Usually, when a person hiccups,

01:00it depends on the temperature of our atmosphere.

01:04If it's too humid,

01:06and sometimes when our body is hot,

01:08we need to exhaust our body.

01:11That's why we sometimes hiccup

01:13so that at least the heat can be released

01:15and the temperature of our body and the atmosphere

01:17can still be equal.

01:20Did you know that the fetus,

01:22when it's 12 weeks old,

01:23also starts to hiccup in the womb of its mother?

01:28It hiccups up to 25 times a day.

01:32But as it gets older,

01:34the number of hiccups also decreases.

01:37When a person gets older,

01:38of course, it decreases

01:40because their lungs and respiratory system are already mature.

01:44Their body is already better

01:46so the body of an older person

01:48doesn't adjust as much.
