This Ukemi doesn't seem amazingly excellent. Uke here should really try tuck in his legs and keep focus when being thrown. If he does that, he can roll and immediately get back up from the roll naturally. At the moment, in this vid, he's rolling then being stopped by his legs, then getting up like a bag of potatoes. Tuck your legs in and roll and you should be able to get back up from the roll without stopping at all, thereby keeping intention and being a good Uke.
Strength plays no part in Aikido. A scenario where a big guy grabs your chest or something, Aikido teaches you to turn, if he's really into the hit or something he'll come back and because you've turned, you've got time to do something.
If the person is just being a stiff git and doesn't budge, well, personally I'd give him a kick in the shin and take his concentration away. :-) And then throw him around.
In what way? What is your understanding of the reason for martial arts? Just thought you should clarify your remark as to why aikidoka specifically and not, say, tai-chi or kobudo-ka, or any other matial artist for that matter DO understand...

really cool but what happens when the guy you grab is strong enough to the point where you can just trow him down lol?
