When he got stabbed in the neck by the quilting needle, he was down for a few minutes until he recovered. After Laurie put a clothes hanger in his eye, then stabbed him under the chin, he was down for a few minutes. So after getting shot 6 times, and falling flat on his back off a balcony, it stands to reason that even after he got up, he would need time to recover.

Exactly as I thought. The man is famous for the slow rebound.
Another thing I always noticed as a kid was in the beginning of Halloween 2 when Loomis is unloading and your view is from outside on the lawn Michael levitates backwards and over the railing while being shot. This is one of the clues we are given to his supernatural powers.

I've definitely noticed that about when they reshot 1's ending for the start 2. It's very noticeable that the stuntman is walking backwards on a platform that is even with the top of the railing. He falls the same way someone would if they got pushed into an in ground pool. Not sure why they wanted to reshoot the fall from that angle. We clearly see in the first one the angle from inside the house where Michael is falling backwards and tumbles over the rail.
For the sake of the movie we can go with supernatural powers.
Added bonus, when you watch the fall in the second movie, you can see the stunt man bounce when he hits the ground.
