Slipping clutch

Can someone carefully describe what a slipping clutch feels like on our m5s? When does it happen, is it something you feel the moment you downshift at high rpms? Please be as specific as possible.

Thanks

RPMs go up under WOT but speedo doesn’t follow appropriately. You will get a DTML clutch over temp. And you will smell burned clutch material.

You know that feeling when you're accelerating and you go over a dip? The RPMs shoot up a bit, but the car isn't actually accelerating? That's what it feels like.

Here's a clip too:
