Yes, it happens to me all the time, though not usually when I'm in a deep sleep, but when I'm dozing and just drifting off!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yea!. Especially when you're about to fall asleep, like in class or something, and you jerk awake right before you fall asleep!.

I read that that happens because as you're falling asleep, in an environment not made for sleep (like if you're not in bed going to sleep and you're in class or something, etc!.) your brain tricks your body into thinking you are falling!. If you are falling then all of your muscles relax, as well as when you are falling asleep!. So when you are falling asleep, but the body mistakes it for falling, you jerk awake to 'catch yourself from falling'!.

Happens to me all the time!.
I hate it!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Kinda -- sometimes when I'm just falling asleep, I suddenly get a feeling like I'm falling and then I wake up with a jerk!. I don't know if I'm trying to keep from falling so convulse and that wakes me, or if it's my brain interpreting the odd sensations as it goes into sleep mode!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I HATE TAHT! lol
when i was litle it would happen alot!. I would freak out, thinking there was a monster under my bed!. oh, and during the FCAT (standardized test) that takes FOREVER, i layed my head down to fall asleep, and EVERY time, i got like, within a centimeter of falling asleep, i twitched!. my desk, being that high quality crap that has one leg shorter than the rest, made a big BOOM!. finally i gave up and stared at the wall until the test was over!. it was HORRIBLE!.

Yes!. Not all the time but it does happen, it usually kills my neck, I have metal plates in my neck and it always makes my neck hurt around that area when I jerk!. I even have it happen when I nap in the middle of the day on occasion!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

This happens to lots of people who suffer from sleep apnea!. You wake up like a bolt out of the blue!. There are treatments for it!. Look into it!. It tends to happen more often to people who are a little overweight!.
Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
