On Monday, Ben Stiller announced the sad news that his father, comedy legend Jerry Stiller, died at 92 of natural causes. The actor was known for playing hilarious fathers on screen for both King of Queens and Seinfeld , but according to co-stars Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Jason Alexander, some of the funniest Stiller moments happened behind the scenes.

Just last week while Seinfeld alums Louis-Dreyfus and Alexander were fundraising for Direct Relief on Instagram Live, the pair took some time to reminisce about Stiller and one of the most famous Seinfeld bloopers.

Somebody wants to know, can you talk about filming [the] You want a piece of me scene with Jerry Stiller? Louis-Dreyfus said to Alexander, causing them both to laugh.

The scene in question, which involves Stiller, Alexander and Louis-Dreyfus, has spawned a wildly popular Seinfeld blooper on YouTube, which to-date has racked up around 2 million views. In the scene, Alexander and Louis-Dreyfus just cant keep it together with Stiller:
