The Bug
When a player dies, (occasionally) mobs motion stops and the players motion will be jittery when dying and falling in midair.
Steps to Reproduce
Switch into survival mode.
Teleport yourself upwards really high so that you're guaranteed to die of fall damage.
/tp @s ~ ~200 ~
Just before you hit the ground, quickly move your head in any direction.
Look closely at your hand on the death screen.
Observed Behavior
The movement of entities and players on the death screen sometimes jitters.
Expected Behavior
The movement of entities and players on the death screen would not sometimes jitter.

MC-152839 was supposed to be fixed in 19w35a. That issue seems to identical to this one. What exactly is the difference, and how did you reproduce this in 19w35a?
The difference is that in this one when you die, all mobs stop moving and if you die while falling in midair, your motion jitters up and down.
Note that due to the nature of this bug, I would recommend avoiding viewing the attached videos if you are sensitive to flashing lights.
This issue can also be observed by eating food while you die (see MC-252986 for more information)
