This happens to me often when I'm nodding off during the day. I sometimes hear a loud noise which can only be described between a bang and a zoom before I jerk and wake. I think it's a defensive mechanism our mind has to keep us from falling asleep at the wrong time. Say like to keep you from nodding off while driving.
I LOVE hyping jerks. Usually I have a dream about falling or flying or on a roller coaster. It's so fun. I will explain one of them. I was flying on a piece of cardboard over the ocean and some islands and I would go down and I felt like I was on a roller coaster and same when I went up like a lot of force on ur body just like a roller coaster. ITS SO FUN!!!!
This happens to me every single time i fall asleep in class! LOL i try to play it off and hope no one sees. But it's mostly because you are tired and when your muscles relax, your brain sends signals to your arms and legs to say that you are falling and to regain balance.
This happens to me to,its normal and nothing to worry about. I have had these all my life,it feels as if im tripping over somthing or falling but its very fast and i cannot control it, and before i hit the ground i wake up and i jerk and shake the entire bed,i have looked this up and its normal.
idk if for me its the same. i get really intense electrics shock like feeling developing in my brain and gets more intense the more i keep my eyes closed and spreads throughout my body. i get a tingling ringing sound in my ears and my heart beats sooo fast i feel like im having a stroke. i get into a panic mode and jump up and run to turn on my light for no reason. its like someone takes control of my body and run toward the light switch. someone help this happens to me few times a month!
@MaxFlared oh my god same! i'm actually so happy you shared that because i've had exactly the same experience, and i thought a demon was trying to posess me or something! It's the most scariest thing, because i have no control what so ever,and it just feels like somethings ripping your soul from out of your body. another thing i get is halluscinations, i start seeng and hearing things that aren't there and thats what shocks me out of it. but the only cure is to NOT FIGHT IT. just let it happen.
am I the only person who finds this amusing when it happens to me? It happened last night and I started giggling.
Also, I usually get it when I'm having a dream; like a dream that I fall. For example once I had a dream that I tripped up the stairs and then I had a Hypnic jerk because of it.. or the dream was a result of the Hypnic jerk... I don't know.
that dident even look like one when i get one im always on my back and my arms and legs are always up in the air its like im hovering 2 feet over my bed then dropped never a good feeling
Well, I had a very bad dream. Like I was in my house and I was dreaming about a man which broke into my house and started to terrorise my family, I try to stand up to him and he stabbed me right in the chest, and I had a big thump in my chest and it really hurt me. How messed up was that?!
Love it when these happen. Probably the most exiting thing in the world lol. I had one a while ago of my friend throwing a fist at my face and I jumped out of bed and fell out of bed. Lol. Unpleasant, but super exiting. Freaking crazy.
ok ive been having hypnic jerks like every other night now and i only found out what it was called last nite, and watching this video, idk if its because of ur camera or what but that didnt look anything like the thing tha happens to me. With me, I'll get to that point where ur just about to fall asleep and either a part of my body or my whole entire body will jump up and it wakes me up to the point where i cant go back to sleep rite away.
well. depends on what you mean by having you. if you dont remember, we were both drunk a few times and i got you in my bed already ;) closer than what greg will get ha ha. BAM BABY!
once fell asleep with this chick afterward on her couch, and scared the shit out of her because i jerked out my foot since i thought i was falling. XD
How often do you get this? I get it very rarely, maybe 5 times a year, but I had it last night and decided to look it up. Please tell me how often you get this.
It all depends on my sleep. I stay up sometimes till morning, And then go to sleep, I don't have an exact time, but it happens every now and then. I asked my sister today about it and she told me her husband does it frequently.

I was hoping to see what this actually looks like, but the fact that you put it in slow-mo totally destroys it. Kind of a wasted effort.

@BMC500 It happened to me the other night too, for the first time in years.
So I decided to google it/ find out what it was/called.
I rarely get it , but when I do it's usually when I'm really tired and I drift off to sleep with the TV on, listening to it in the background.
Next thing I know, I'm on a chair that's falling backwards and I wake up in a panic.
