ragdolls

Soft floppy toys

Ragdolls is the plural of ragdoll, a child's doll made of cloth and stuffed with soft material, designed to be floppy and huggable rather than rigid.

The term extends to describe how a body moves when completely limp, as when unconscious or dead: The impact sent him ragdolling across the pavement.

In video games, ragdoll physics refers to procedural animation that makes characters flop realistically when killed or knocked down, rather than playing a canned death animation.

Ragdoll is also a breed of large, docile cats known for going limp when picked up.
