A naked man yelling he was "king of the world" ran into traffic on Big Coppitt Key early Sunday morning.
Keysnet.com reports 43-year-old Richard Gervasi of Phoenixville, Pa., was running into traffic on US-1 around 1:30 a.m.
Deputies arrived and found Gervasi and two of his friends, one of whom Gervasi attacked when the sheriff's office pulled up.
He then allegedly ran at Deputy Danielle Malone, who tased him.
But Gervasi pulled the Taser prongs out, so the deputy tased him again — but that didn't end the confrontation.
As another deputy arrived, Gervasi got up again and started walking toward his friends.
So deputies tased him a third time and then handcuffed him.
As he was being taken into custody, he said he was "made of steel."
Gervasi was charged with disturbing the peace and resisting arrest. Investigators say he had been drinking and took LSD before the incident.
