The image quickly went viral, with many praising the IDF's sense of humor. Comments ranged from "Deploy the Bings!" to "It’s either start laughing or start screaming. I’m pretty proud of the fact that it’s the former."

Others noted how some cultural references transcend borders, describing Perry as a "giant who will be missed."

Matthew Perry gained fame for his role as Chandler Bing in the American sitcom "Friends."
