I'd like to give you an example of sentence but to be sorry, I can't.
Is there anybody to help me?

She is knock-dead gorgeous!
=> She's so beautiful that her beauty could knock you down dead.
"Knock 'em dead!"
=> Amaze them with a move, a song, an act, etc.
=> Give it your best (shot).
If a coconut falls from a tree, it could
knock you out cold; it could
knock you down dead; It could
knock you unconscious.
All the best,
