After spinning in circles like 10 times, I struggle to walk in a straight line without falling down. What during the spinning causes the brain to get confused and how does it fix itself in a few minutes?

When you spin in circles, your brain gets signals from your inner ear that you’re spinning. But when you stop, the fluid in your inner ear keeps moving for a bit, which makes your brain think you’re still spinning. This confuses your brain and makes it hard to balance, causing you to not walk straight. Your brain corrects itself as the fluid in your inner ear settles and stops sending spinning signals.
