Sleep not terminating

I'm encountering a weird problem with sleep. If I run $ while true; do sleep 120; done [1] 6780 $ kill %1 the bash process (6780) and its child sleep process are both killed. However, if I kill the bash process using the pid, the child sleep process is not killed. $ while true; do sleep
