Some guy was hit by a SUV after playing “real-life” Frogger in traffic? What was this guy thinking?

A 23-year-old man was hit by a Lexus SUV Monday while trying to play a real-life version of Frogger across a South Carolina highway, police say. The man, who’s name was not released, was listed in stable condition at an area hospital, according to WYFF 4 news.
