tip over
Lose one's balance
To tip over is to lose balance and fall sideways, or to cause something to do so: The canoe tipped over in the rapids, She tipped over the vase reaching for the phone.
The phrase emphasizes the pivoting motion—something rotates past its point of stability rather than collapsing straight down.
