TimerThread extends Thread. So Thread.sleep(5000) and TimerThread.sleep(5000) is not different.

If we're talking about this TimerThread, then there is no difference. The two ways to call sleep() resolve to the same method (Thread.sleep()).

I would expect this to be the case for any other reasonable class that extends Thread. However, if in doubt, one can always check the source code for the class in question.
