TelevisionWeek is trawling video-sharing Web sites to find the hottest clips spreading on the Internet.

The setup: The driver in this clip must have been really, really good at Frogger as a kid-so good, in fact, that he or she had the chutzpah to fly through a red light, zipping into razor-thin spaces between oncoming cars with stuntman verve. You have to see it to believe it.

The source: The clip appears to have been taken from a traffic camera. It was submitted to various online video sites, including YouTube.com and Break.com, on May 2. It also appeared on StupidVideos.com.

The hits: By May 4 it had generated more than 700,000 hits on Break and more than 770,000 on YouTube.
