What's that other stopmotion walking video?

What's that other elaborate walking-person stopmotion video with a boy walking, jumping, riding a bicycle, and doing all sorts of crazy stuff?

It's the end of the year and "Her Morning Elegance" is making the Best Videos of the Year lists. But I can remember another similar video that bested it in a couple ways.

Seems it featured a high-school age boy, walking from left to right, doing more elaborate things like riding a bike, maybe even swimming, and at one point there was a cool forced-perspective effect where something was put very close to the camera to look very large compared to the walking boy.

I tried several clumsy search strings on both Mefi and google, but I can't come up with it. Help?

You might try adding pixilation (note i) to your search terms...

I don't know which one came out first, but it looks like this Amazon commercial was inspired by "Sorry I'm Late."
