When the Taser Doesn't Work

I sat yesterday and observed the video of the Kenosha video of Jacob Blake, getting tased.  From that moment....Blake was up in about eight to ten seconds. Most cops argue over this stage....suggesting you have about 30 to 60 seconds as a minimum...up to three to four minutes maximum.....where the guy is not able to gain muscle coordination.

The effect on Blake?  Almost zero.

So it begs the question.  The cops believed after they'd tased Blake....they had a minute or so to gain the upper hand.  Why didn't it have an effect? 

Crappy taser?  Guy on some type of drugs?  Did they tase some 'protected' part of his body? 

It just begs questions.
