I can only guess, but it may be something as simple as hypnic jerk. Rest assured, though, that you probably can't 'meditate yourself to death'. Assuming you're healthy, your body's autonomic nervous system has built-in mechanisms to keep everything going. The worst I've ever done was meditate myself to sleep.
