 Smack on the Back
comment
A character wants to congratulate another, and slaps him on the back. However, due to his size, powers, or occasionally the recipient's injuries, he uses a little too much force, causing the recipient to wince, fall down, send them flying across the room, etc.
While it's most commonly a slap on the back, it can be applied to any friendly gesture done with too much force.
A variant is when the slap wouldn't be all that painful if the recipient didn't have a sunburned back or other injury.
If the slapper is not so friendly, be wary of a possible "Kick Me" Prank.
Related to Does Not Know His Own Strength, although superhuman strength is not required. A staple of the Boisterous Bruiser and The Big Guy. See also Crushing Handshake and Bear Hug.

Occurs twice in the Anime series Girls und Panzer: the first instance occurs when Absurdly Powerful Student Council president Kadotani Anzu smacks reluctant Nishizumi Miho for joining the Ooarai tankery team. Though ostensibly done as a "welcome aboard" gesture, it also carries the subtext of "we can hurt you if you cross us." The second instance occurs when Takabe Saori smacks her teammates Miho and Yukari with too much enthusiasm while the Anglerfish team visits Reizei Mako's grandmother in the hospital room. Saori is the excitable type.

Mortadelo y Filemón once met a character (a circus strongman) whose friendly slaps on the back were strong enough to send the recipient flying from Spain to the Arctic, India or Egypt. After this happened several times, Mortadelo got fed up with it and created a spring-loaded device that had enough force to return the favor manifold, sending the guy to the rings of Saturn!

In Dragon Ball Super, Yamcha of all people does this to Physical God Beerus and it actually hurts Beerus, making him totter forward in surprise. The justification is probably because Beerus is relaxed around the "mortals", meaning Yamcha's Super Strength gets him off guard.

Dragon Ball Z:
Yajirobe slaps Goku on the back to congratulate him for successfully landing a hit on Vegeta. He isn't worried because Goku far outclassed him a long time ago, but Goku's body is so damaged by that point that it sends him into a screaming fit.
Played for Laughs when Goku, having just returned to Earth from space, gives his wife Chi-Chi a friendly pat on the back while she was fuming blowing, her out of the house and into a rock as a result. Goku is very apologetic afterward and helps Gohan patch her up.
In Dragon Ball Super, Yamcha of all people does this to Physical God Beerus and it actually hurts Beerus, making him totter forward in surprise. The justification is probably because Beerus is relaxed around the "mortals", meaning Yamcha's Super Strength gets him off guard.

One of Marshall's brothers does this to Lily and sends her halfway across the room in a season 1 episode of How I Met Your Mother. The Eriksen family and their spouses are all tall, strong, and athletic so they are used to treating each other this way, while Lily is much shorter and slighter of build.

Katawa Shoujo: In one route, Kenji greets Hisao by slapping him on the back. Hisao gets extremely angry about this, telling Kenji in no uncertain terms to never, ever do that again. The reason being that Hisao has a weak heart, and that good-natured slap very nearly caused a heart attack. (Kenji, for his part, had no idea and is very apologetic.)

Babylon 5: In the episode "GROPOS", Lt. Keffer gets stuck with a couple of marines in his quarters. Though initially standoffish, he endears himself to them, particularly Cigar Chomper Pvt. Large, who sticks a cigar in his mouth and sits him down to listen to war stories, which he punctuates with a slap on Keffer's back that knocks the cigar right out of his mouth.
