That actually happens to me a fair amount. I normally sleep with my arms under my pillow, and throughout the night, sometimes my arms will get under my torso.
So in the morning, my arms have been deprived of blood for 6 hours, and they are basically worthless. Takes a while to get the blood circulating.
It also happend to an ex roommate one morning when his parents called. I woke him up and went to give him the phone and he just lay there petrified and paralyzed. At first I thought he didn't hear me and so I repeated it, and then I thought he didn't want to talk to his father, and then I realized after seeing his arms flail about that his arms were just asleep.
I mocked him.
