She should have got David Schwimmer on the case.

Former Friends star Courtney Cox took to Instagram on Saturday to brilliantly recreate an iconic scene from the sitcom.

In her video, Cox shows three men moving a table to another room in her home.

As you can imagine, “PIVOT!” is shouted numerous times during the clip of her fiancé Johnny McDaid and a few friends moving a piece of furniture.

As Friends fans will no doubt remember vividly, the phrase “Pivot” comes from the season five episode when Ross, Rachel, and Chandler attempt to move a couch up a flight of stairs and Ross continues to shout “PIVOT!”

The famous “PIVOT” scene of the show aired in 1999 during the episode The One With The Cop and people have been unable to move furniture without shouting it ever since.
