Mel Brooks and his son, Max, shared a funny PSA on Monday about social distancing during the coronavirus pandemic.
In the nearly minute-long video posted to Twitter, Max, an accomplished author, talks about why it is important to keep away from his father, the 93-year-old film icon.
While Max talks, his father can be seen watching from inside his house, a window separating them.
“If I get the coronavirus, I’ll probably be OK, but if I give it to him, he could give it to Carl Reiner, who can give it to Dick Van Dyke.

Max proceeds to list good practices to combat the spread of coronavirus. “Do your part, don’t be a spreader,” Max says.
