The below is from Wikipedia.

Quote:
Microsleeps occur when a person has a significant sleep deprivation. Microsleeps usually last for a few seconds and happen most frequently when a person is trying to stay awake when he or she is feeling sleepy.[48] The person falls asleep no matter what activity he or she is engaged in.[citation needed] Microsleeps are similar to blackouts and a person experiencing them is not consciously aware that they are occurring.
