Being stunned is the state of being incapacitated. While stunned, a player cannot attack and is either locked in place completely or is severely slowed.

The Engineer's Organ Grinder, the Medic's Spinal Tap, and the initial stab of the Sniper's Skewer, will fully stun a player if it connects. These attacks can stun an ÜberCharged opponent. ÜberCharged enemies are often distracted or keeping their aim at a Sentry Gun, long enough to stab them with the taunt. Even without damage, it will waste precious seconds of ÜberCharge.
The Ghosts on Halloween maps can scare players, as well as the Horseless Headless Horsemann's taunt on Mann Manor. This counts towards achievements as a stun.
In Mann vs. Machine, Sappers can be placed on robots to disable them. But unlike the 'scared' effect, this is an ordinary full stun, and can even trigger Sandman voice lines if the Spy placing the Sapper is disguised as a Scout. Giant robots are immune to being stunned, but will still receive slowdown from Sappers and the Sandman for the duration of the effect. All regular-sized robots on the map Mannhattan will automatically be stunned for approximately 20 seconds whenever a point is captured. Additionally, an upgraded Thermal Thruster can stun robots within a certain radius upon landing.
In Mannpower, the Supernova ability grants the player the capability to fully stun nearby enemies upon activating the attack, which requires a full powerup meter to perform.
