EN: fell flat on one's back; dropped dead
This is a very dramatic fall. Think action movie villain getting shot and falling backward, or that feeling after a 12-hour shift where you just want to fall flat on your bed. It’s not just falling; it’s falling flat, often with a sense of finality or extreme exhaustion.
Often used to describe a dead body or someone who has fainted and fallen backward. It's a very descriptive and somewhat dramatic word.
