A 15-year-old girl came to A&E following a fall and a period of unconsciousness at school

A 15-year-old girl came to A&E following a fall and a period of unconsciousness at school. Her friends who were witnesses say she was walking and talking to them when, all of a sudden, her body and her head appeared to go floppy like a rag doll and she fell to the floor unconscious. She woke up after a few seconds and could not recall anything.

What is the likely seizure she experienced?
