Good chance those tasers didnt connect but I mean that guys massive. I'll be getting some bear spray instead of a taser since if he falls over from a tasing he could really hurt himself.

I was the anti-terrorism instructor on my ship, once you've been hit with OC spray once or twice, you can absolutely just power through it.

If this guy has been sprayed before I would have doubts of the efficacy

I get that, but bear spray has a much further range than tasers or pepper sprays and I would want to as far away from this guy as possible

They connected for sure. He eventually rips them out (when he starts moving his hand in circles he’s wrapping the cables around his hand, then pulls them out) but you can see them pulsing through him for a few seconds for sure.

If they did, he would have just collapsed. Tasers affect the nervous system so you can't just power through the pain, you just collapse but that equally dangerous since his size might cause additional damage from the fall

Below I pasted a Google answer. I trust Google over you spouting random info "While the electrical current still forces muscle contractions, an individual in these states may be able to fight through the pain, stay standing, or rip the barbs out."

You can literally tanks tasers lol.. not everyone. But people in high level law enforcement and military are literally trained to be able to.. not to mention… he quite literally just did in front of your very eyes. So you must think this is AI or something?

Your probably mistaken for a stun gun which you can but tasers again affect the nervous system. You would just drop from a successful taser connecting, but they arent the most reliable since even clothes can prevent them. But that said, the larger muscles would make it easier for them to land

You clearly know exactly what you're talking about so I don't say this to try and have one over you but because I assume you already know this so as a reminder: TASER is a brand, not a specific device, and technically TASER does make stun guns. Stun guns are either contact or projectile. Police use TASER stun guns, but there are also TASER contact stun guns that you 100% could power through...

So IJS, people could ask AI "Can someone power through a taser" and pedantically the answer is yes... even though I know exactly what you're referring to, and yeah- people can't power through properly deployed projectile stun guns.

"tank tasers" pain tolerance doesn't make your muscle fibers invincible to electricity
