LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The beloved 'Friends' actor Matthew Perry who played the character Chandler Bing on the 90s sitcom has sadly passed away. The 54-year-old was reported dead in his LA apartment after an apparent drowning incident.

The fans of Perry and the sitcom all around the world are distraught over the news. In an effort to cheer each other up, several of them are looking back on their favorite scenes from the comedy show.

One of the bits that was especially recalled by the fans was the one famously called the 'PIVOT' scene, taking its name from the hilarious delivery by David Schwimmer as Ross Geller.

It goes without saying that 'Friends' brought great amounts of joy to its viewers with not just the funny sketches but the unmatchable friendship between the characters as well as the actors.

This had many fans mourning for Perry to recall the episode 'The One with the Cop'. In the episode, Ross goes on to purchase a new couch but asks for the help of his friends to get it to his apartment to avoid the delivery charges.

This episode gave birth to the 'Pivot' scene in which Ross struggles to get the couch up the stairs with Chandler and Rachel. What specifically made fans recall this scene was the later revealed blooper which showed the actors sharing a big laugh at their own scene.
