David Schwimmer reveals the 'funny' messages one of his Friends costars sends him

David Schwimmer revealed he is still 'pretty close' with his Friends co-star Matt LeBlanc and at times surprise each other with out-of-the-blue messages.

On Tuesday, the 58-year-old actor said that he credits their tight-knit bond to the 'funny' exchanges they have despite living on opposite coasts, during an appearance on Good Morning America.

'LeBlanc and I are pretty close, even though I live in New York and he’s in L.A.,' he said.

And after months of silence from his former co-star, the Goosebumps: The Vanishing star shared that he recently received a hilarious message from LeBlanc that made up for lost time.

'What’s fun is we’ve got the kind of friendship where we may not talk for months, but out of nowhere, he’ll send me a message with a clip from [Friends] — which, it’s always funny to relive something we shot, what, 25 years ago or more?' he said.

'So he sent me something a couple of days ago that totally surprised me,' Schwimmer said of the 57-year-old. 'I genuinely forgot what we’ve shot, but it’s a moment where he just rips my shirt off.'

The actor was likely referring to a moment back in 2003 from season nine episode 13 where Schwimmer's character had to appear as though he had been mugged — to which LeBlanc's character ripped off a piece from his button-up shirt. 

During the interview, host Robin Roberts praised Schwimmer for acting as Ross Gellar on the hit 1994 show that aired until 2004. It also starred Lisa Kudrow, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox and the late Matthew Perry.

The 64-year-old told the actor that fans still 'love the work'done on the series and rewatch it to 'relive' the past.

'To be honest with you, it’s kind of the gift that keeps on giving,' the Screen Actors Guild Award winner said.

And he admitted that fans have told him touching stories and fond memories related to the comedy. 

He said: 'When I meet people on the street from another country and they say, " just have to say, I learned English watching your show," or a father stops me and says, "My kid was really, really ill and the one thing that kept them going in the hospital was just watching Friends."'

'You feel really grateful and blessed to have done something that people find fun.'

Last week, the Madagascar voice actor recalled a 'genuinely frightening moment' that occurred during a live taping of Friends back in 1996.

During a sit-down with Entertainment Weekly, Schwimmer recounted the time LeBlanc dislocated his shoulder while attempting a pratfall as cameras were rolling.

'He went totally white, and he stood up, and I could see his shoulder was out. He looked like he was going to pass out,' the Intelligence actor said. 

As a result, the taping had to be 'cut' as the actor was rushed to the hospital.

'You could see how badly hurt he was. And we had to stop filming that night, obviously, and he went to hospital. That was scary,' he added.

The shocking fall occurred during the taping of season three episode The One with the Jam.
