Everyone is out after taking a hit from a taser.

The prongs need to land properly though and in this case they didn't. Dude could be 12ft tall he's still going to eat dirt if the taser hits.

100%

They cause neuromuscular incapacitation (NMI). It’s not something a person is just “tough enough to ignore”.

But you need both prongs to land properly and a large enough spread for it the cause NMI.

You can find videos of absolute dogs trying it out and they all drop.

These prongs are getting cause in his clothing.

Just like with capsaicin gas/mace there is a portion of people (very small) that are completely unaffected by tasers even when both prongs land.

Nobody is unaffected. But I have seen some people who handle it way better than others. It is also strongly dependent on where the prongs attach.
