Subjects in a rotating environment that reach to point at a target make errors consistent with the Coriolis force [http://jn.physiology.org/content/83/6/3230.full.pdf+html acting upon their arms].
A rotating subject that has reached equilibrium with their rotation finds that upon tilting the head the feeling is that a rotation is occurring about the new axis of the head, when in fact that is not occurring at all. http://books.google.com/books?id=_6hymYAgC6MC&pg=PA175&lpg=PA175&dq=VESTIBULAR+CORIOLIS+ILLUSION&source=bl&ots=Nv8fRQGIUr&sig=32jT7VepXv9mVOa0WmJDvYqpJuk&hl=en&ei=0j1eTZT5HoassAO4kdDSCA&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=6&ved=0CDYQ6AEwBQ#v=onepage&q=VESTIBULAR%20CORIOLIS%20ILLUSION&f=false

==Vestibular system==
{{Image|Vestibular system of ear.PNG|right|250px|Vestibular system in the human ear.}}
The ''vestibular system'' of the ear senses balance, motion, and body position. The three semicircular canals observe acceleration in the three planes of motion: ''pitch'' (nod ''yes''), ''yaw'' (twist your head ''no''), and  ''roll'' (pivot head from left to right shoulder without twisting). The ''otolith organs'' detect linear acceleration.
