Yes that would be Benny Hinn and the like.
I am also an energy healer; and I have seen some amazing things take place under my hands; but never felt the need to push someone to the floor to do it.

People do not get healed like this. They hit the floor because they are part of a group that strongly believes in something and witness each other hitting the floor by these faith healers. So when it happens to them, they physically feel and act out what they saw. It is a classic case of monkey see monkey do.
Here is a funny link of someone who put Drowning Pool's "Let the Bodies Hit the Floor" and dubbed it over a clip of people getting "healed"

Yes I have seen that circus and it disgusts me. The reason they fall on the floor is because theyr are supposed to be "slain in the Spriit". This charade has been repeatedly shown to be a performance or a psychologically induced episode. In the end it neither permenantly heals the believer, glorifies God and only serves to make the "faith healer" rich.

Yes, I have seen this many times and question the reality of it all. It certainly is not because I don't think God can heal anyone. I just have difficulty with all the showiness about it. They supposedly fall from the power of God, which could happen, but I really don't watch a lot of the TV ministries. If you are interested in the Christian faith it is better to find a Church in your area or check out www.ttb.org. A 5 yr Bible Study in plain English. God is a sensible being and if there is confusion He is not a part of it. God Bless

I don't believe that the TV faith healers heal anyone.

No - no one has actually been healed - but there are some rich people on the highway to Hell for making people believe they could heal.
In Matthew 17 v 5 it says - While he was still speaking, a bright cloud enveloped them, and a voice from the cloud said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!"
The last phrase says - "Listen to him!" - God commanded that we listen ONLY TO JESUS - which means listening to ANYONE else is going against God Word - and last I heard, going against God's Word is not a blessing - but a sin.

Well obviously all these people are scam artists,if Benny Hinn really can heal 100 people a night like he does on TV why are hospitals full of sick and dying Christians?

Some people do feint when the Spirit hits them. I saw
a preacher lay hands on a guy, and you could see him get light-headed. The preacher actually got the Spirit
going for the dude. But the preacher wanted him to
fall all the way to ground, And started pushng him, and the guy was flying all around the preacher in circles, until he finally got pushed down.
Kind of ruined it for me!

Oh wow, I LOVE those shows! They're hilarious. I laugh until I cry, and then I change the channel to prevent the loss of more brain cells.
Ever been healed? No.
Why do they fall over? Over dramatic acting, I'm guessing.

You'd probably fall too if someone pushed you on the forehead.
I went to church with an old girlfriend and they did that to her. She fell down and they made a big deal of it. Afterward she told me that she only did it because he kept pushing on her head. She really didn't want to go down because she was wearing a nice dress.
