It shouldn't take skill to do that, if anything it should take skill to knock someone to lying without them falling and hurting themself.
With the exception of an HP 10 or so foe, most of the falls using this Perk function as though they are from much higher than 1 yard. "fall equal to half the foe's height or your thr-1" could be a default option; this one is more akin to "fall equal to the foe's height," and that's using HP as a proxy for SM.
