hey everyone it's Isis here and for
today's episode we're going to
investigate some of the crazy mysteries
of the human body okay some ways our
body works is pretty obvious but have
you ever thought about some of the weird
things that happen to our bodies like
why is our skin so ticklish oh why do we
get brain freezes when we eat ice cream
our bodies and minds are capable of all
sorts of incredible and wacky things now
you maybe haven't thought of before and
I'm here to help explain these mysteries
like have you ever wondered why we get
hiccups hiccups happen when your
diaphragm a muscle in the bottom of your
chest that helps you breathe becomes
irritated after you swallow too much air
eat too quickly or get too excited
hiccups usually last for a few minutes
but sometimes they can last for hours
days even years a man named Charles
Osborne holds the world record for
hiccups his last 68 years scientists
don't really know why we get hiccups but
they think that we might hiccup to
release air trapped in our stomachs so
now that we know a little bit more about
hiccups I think it's time to find out
how to get rid of them
