He was 92.

Victor Cianca's son Richard Cianca says his father died on Sunday, days after suffering a heart attack.

In 1964, "Candid Camera" aired footage of Cianca directing traffic in Pittsburgh, using his arms and legs to keep cars moving. He often took slow, silly bows, would play an imaginary violin when a driver gave an excuse for a traffic violation and would pretend to sleep if a vehicle was driving too slowly.

Later, he had a cameo role in the movie "Flashdance."

Cianca's funeral will be on Friday.

Cianca is survived by his wife, Anna Marie, two sons, two grandchildren and a great-grandson.
