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.

Act 4:31 And when they had prayed, the place in which they were gathered together was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and continued to speak the word of God with boldness.

The first time I spoke in tongues I fell. I was standing there and felt like I was somewhere else. I totally forgot I was standing there in a church service. Next thing I knew I hit the floor. Didn't feel anything

 Lord, I apologize, but that is a funny video. That, and the Star Wars version where he's Emperor Palpatine, shooting lightning bolts from his fingertips.

I've seen it (the Star Wars one, too).
What is probably not known to most (in the church, that is) is that song was by a band called Drowning Pool from an album titled "Sinner", featuring the word sinner tatooed across the lead singer's hand as he pretends to lay hands on a believer kneeling before him in apparent sexual supplication.
The cd as a whole is mostly an antichristian, anti-God rant.
The lead singer for that band died under mysterious circumstances while on tour. He wasn't murdered, didn't OD, or anything. He just died, the cause of which couldn't be perfectly determined after an autopsy, medically speaking. Something about a presumed, "natural causes" heart condition (i.e. cardiomyopathy, or a weakening of the muscles in the heart, a generic term for all sorts of heart diseases and dysfunctions). But nobody really knows.
I don't know for sure, either, but it smacks of how King Herod died.
