zonk out
Suddenly lose consciousness
Zonk out means to fall asleep quickly or become unconscious, usually from exhaustion or intoxication: I zonked out on the couch before the movie ended.
The word suggests sudden, heavy sleep rather than a gradual drift.
Someone who is zonked or zonked out may also be stupefied by drugs or alcohol.
