Boy, 7, Hiccups Through National Anthem

A seven-year-old boy was about to perform the Australian national anthem during a baseball game when he was overcome by a chronic case of hiccups.

But despite the setback, the youngster - named in reports as Ethan Hall - powered through his rendition of Advance Australia Fair, and as a result, made it one of the most memorable performances of all-time.

Ethan sang the anthem before an Australian Baseball League match between the Brisbane Bandits and the Adelaide Bite in Adelaide.

When he reached the end of his performance, the stadium's crowd gave him a massive round of applause.

He then ran off the pitch and earned high-fives from the delighted players.
