The falling sickness was not a person. It was what Caesar experienced; he had epilepsy.
In Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar," when Brutus refers to Caesar having "the falling sickness," he is alluding to Caesar's epilepsy, a condition characterized by seizures. This phrase serves to undermine Caesar's image of strength and invulnerability, suggesting that he is physically weak and unfit to hold power. It also highlights Brutus's internal conflict, as he is torn between his loyalty to Caesar and his belief that Caesar's potential rule could threaten the Republic.
Cassius meant that they are falling to Caesar's power.
Shakespeare knew that the Roman statesman and commander Julius Caesar suffered from the 'falling sickness'. In Act I, Scene ii of his tragedy Julius Caesar, Casca describes how Caesar 'swooned and fell down...' and a few verses later says: 'He fell down in the market place, and foamed at the mouth, and was speechless.' He had epilepsy
In Act 1, scene 2, Brutus says of Caesar "He hath the falling sickness" (likely meaning epilepsy). Cassius replies that it is the three of them (Brutus, Cassius and Casca) who have the 'falling sickness' -- meaning the lack of will to confront Caesar over his abuse of power.
