Pivot
But I don’t think it can pivot anymore! This scene was absolutely hilarious as Rachel, Chandler and Ross try to get a sofa up Ross’ apartment. They try to move it around the stairs to carry it upstairs where one sees Ross telling Chandler to ‘Pivot”. Chandler’s reaction to it quite amusing as well.
