Answers:
Many people have sudden body jerks when they are falling asleep, these are called hypnic jerks!. As far as having your legs suddenly fly into the air, it could be myclonic epilepsy!. However, myclonic seizures more often involve your arms, and myclonic epilepsy usually present along with other seizures (normally absence seizures or tonic-clonic seizures)!.

Seeing your doctor wouldn't hurt though, better safe than sorry!.
