Meanwhile, narcoleptics be like: "First time?"

Dude probably had to help his grandparents on the farm all day and was hyped and tired AF. Instant off switch.
I had that happen with morphine once. Watched the needle for the drip go in, looked away for a second, looked back and it was already being removed because my procedure was done.
I had that happen a few times when I was quite young. At least once, I did it on purpose. I had a sleepover with a friend and was excited for the next day and was impatient for the next day to arrive now. I fell asleep and woke up the next day seemingly instantly. No dreams. No perception of passage of more than like a second of time. Just instant morning.
You want to hear about a glitch? I once went to hospital, and it was a rough first night. The second night, I couldn't sleep so I'd figure I'd grab a book and try some reading. I opened the book, and the text was flipping symbols like the Matrix ... like each word was flipping. I couldn't read it so I returned the book.
I have taken some fighting class where they taught us some techniques. After a few weeks of training the instructor put us through a scenario where he put on a RedMan suit and we had to fight him one by one.
When it was my turn, I remember walking towards him. Next thing I remember the fight was over. I was standing in front of the instructor who had been apparently repelled and said in an impressed tone "that was a great elbow".
None of the techniques he had taught us involved the elbow. I have no idea what I did but apparently it worked.
Reminds me of Rutherford.
I mean, these things happen to only a small subset of people so I can understand where the frame of reference gets skewed for you normies. For instance, every time my aunt babysat me, I'd immediately find myself in another place after dinner. Everything would hurt from the cold, but the police would help me get back home and even they couldn't explain it to me, a "very brave kid" in their own words. Explain that, liberals.
I've had a few, but I chock them up to being tired. Twice on the way to work early in the morning, the sky turned colors on my. Once it turned purple, the other it turned an aqua color. Then, while working night shift, I was looking up at the sky and saw what I thought was a shooting star make a 90° turn before disappearing. It had to be sleep deprivation, on every account.
