When I was very new to Pentecost (pre-UPC) I went to a charismatic worship service. I had never heard of being slain in the spirit. The service really moved me and I went up to the front and was talking in tongues and crying. The preacher stood over me and said "You look like you're ready!" and bopped his hand on my forehead. Lightening shot through me and I fell backward and was, yes, literally slain in the Spirit! They had "catchers" there, but I didn't know it. They caught me as I fell backward and laid me on the floor where I spoke in tongues for about an hour. It was amazing! If they hadn't had catchers I would have just fell right to the floor! I tried to duplicate that experience after that, but never was able to.
