Arnold Schwarzenegger is making the most of self-isolation, and took to Twitter to update fans as he enjoyed a cigar in his home jacuzzi.

The 72-year-old shared a video message imploring everyone to practice social distancing, telling fans, "I'm at home in the jacuzzi, smoking a little stogie."

The Terminator star continued: "I just finished a bike ride and a little bit of workout and I just keep staying at home, away from the crowds and away from outside.

"The reason why I'm saying that is because I still see photographs and videos of people sitting at outside cafes all over the world and having a good time and hanging out in crowds," he explained. "That is not wise because that's how you can get the virus. That's how you get it. Contact with other people.

The former California governor then urged people to "stay away from crowds" before turning his message directly to school kids on spring break.

"... Especially now that it's springtime, the older kids are going to the beach and celebrate and drink and all of that stuff that is not a good idea," he said. "So stay away from the crowds, go home, and then we can overcome this whole problem, this whole virus in no time... But you got to go and follow those orders. Just remember: stay at home, don't go to crowds. Put that cookie down!"

The video comes after The Expendables actor found himself trending on social media on Sunday (15Mar20), after sharing a clip of him feeding his pet miniature pony, called Whiskey, and donkey Lulu, carrots from the table in his kitchen, as he shared a similar message about self-isolation.
