Self-isolating during the coronavirus pandemic has been tricky for us all to get used to. Take this guy for example:

Like many, actor and comic Dan Ahdoot has been trying to keep himself busy only for him it’s ended up being under some of the most mortifying circumstances.

We can all sympathise with Dan but, while the majority of us would all of a sudden need the toilet or find ourselves dehydrating, the comic in him came out and he decided to video the awkward encounter.

The clip begins showing the steamy romp on the TV before Dan pans his phone around to his elderly parents who are sitting on the sofa (not phased at all). He then turns the video to himself and lets out a big sigh.

Posting the video to Twitter, Dan wrote: “Me quarantined with my parents watching sex scenes. Take me now, COVID. #QuarantineLife [sic]”.

Since being posted, the tweet has racked up over 112,000 likes and over 20,000 retweets with people across the globe laughing at Dan’s expense.

One gave him some well needed advice for future films: “Dude, that’s when you get up and go to the bathroom or go to the fridge. Did that every time there was a kissing scene.”

Another added: “My thoughts and prayers are with your family as their innocence is slowly and painfully destroyed on cam,” while someone else dubbed the clip the ‘best thing I have seen for days’.

Many people had been in Dan’s shoes and offered him reassurance that he isn’t the only one.

One said: “I know the feeling well. Like when my 89 y.o. Mother was visiting. We had playing. The scene where a woman was masturbating with a screwdriver. My mom watched the entire scene, and I was in a cold sweat.”

Dan was thanked for sharing the video with everyone as people said they ‘really needed it’ to boost them throughout this unsure period of time.
