I’ve noticed this in teenage boys?

I went on a long trip with my youth group. So I was in the middle of two boys who had fallin asleep. They were both like, having spaz attacks as they were sleeping, like there arms jerling up and legs and stuff.. I thought it was cute, sometimes they would wake up and be like “i was jumping huh?” ha. anyways, what cause them to do that?

Answer:
body ticks as their sleeping. I don't mean an actual flea tick type of thing, I'm referring to movements known as ticks. It's common in males than it is in females. I think it's their body's way of releasing tension but can only be done when their in a deep sleep.
