This feeling also accompanies falling, and your brain tries to make sense of it. The second being that your brain wants to test you to see if you are sleeping. Just some knowledge for everyone....
      Thank you!!! I've always been annoyed at that and wondered why that happens!!

      This is quite interesting, and I like it. How much coffee though would be equivalent to 160-200mg of caffeine?

      Depends heavily on the type. A good estimate is 100mg for a small cup. But it could be easily twice or half that. You can look up the tables for Starbucks online.
