Do you watch Rules of Engagement?

Good! You'll know who these people are! LOLz!

Actually, it's a series on CBS — some would even consider it a hit. Anyway, they teamed up with the American Heart Association to bring the world a tutorial of the life-saving skill of Hands-Only CPR.

Here's what Megyn Price has to say:

“Hands-Only CPR has just two easy steps. There’s no excuse not to learn this life-saving skill. If a teen or adult suddenly collapses, call 9-1-1 and then push hard and fast in the center of the chest to the beat of “Stayin’ Alive” until help arrives."

If begun immediately, CPR can double or triple the chance of survival — which is important because nearly 400,000 Americans suffer out-of-hospital cardiac arrests every year, and almost 90 percent die because they don’t receive immediate CPR.

So if you like the show, great — you'll watch the clip (above). If you like saving lives, however, you'll be watching regardless!

Have U ever wondered what would happen if a dog had hands….

AMAZINGNESS WOULD HAPPEN!!!!!

This pooch (above) is just like every other dog except he has human hands….

Unfortunately, with great hands comes great responsibility…like brushing your teeth, eating breakfast and driving to the store.

Wait a tick…dogs don't have hands!!!! LOLz!!!

You win again, Internet!

A 23-year-old mother who glued her daughter's hands to the wall before proceeding to beat the 2-year-old so savagely that the little one fell into a coma has been sentenced by a Dallas judge to spend 99 years in prison.

Elizabeth Escalona had faced a sentence from either probation to life in prison - the prosecutors in the case had sought 45 years behind bars. The judge thought that wasn't enough, and rightly so.

Turns out it isn't only humans whom are OCD about washing their hands.

Chameleons are, too!

When we first began to watch this video we were skeptical about a chameleon willingly washing its hands.

But after viewing this amazing sequence of events - we have a whole new level of respect for the Chameleon species.

If only humans would wash their hands as diligently as this chameleon, and we could stop the spread of germs.

We'd never be sick ever again - it'd be a modern miracle. And all thanks to one chameleon.

And yes this little dude is cooler than the Geico Gekko or whatever the hell that thing is. And it isn't even close!!!

Ch-ch-check out this amazing video of a chameleon washing its hands (above) !!!

Paul Callahan is a quadriplegic who is also a paralympic sailor.

When Paul was 21, an undergrad at Harvard, his whole life ahead of him, he slipped on a wet floor, broke his neck and was paralyzed from the chest down, retaining the use of his arms but not his hands.

He originally spent 5 years going from rehab to rehab, trying to be able to walk again. Eventually doctors convinced him that it was time to stop dreaming of walking and start actually living.

So that's what he did.

Holy hell, you guys!

We JUST mentioned Aimee Copeland's progress a little bit yesterday — like how she's been able to do an amazing amount of exercises as a part of her rehab.

Little did we know, she was already mastering THREE sets of prosthetics, including the hooks where her hands used to be.

For a 24 year old who lost 4 limbs to a flesh eating bacteria, she is super tough, driven, and inspirational.

It's gotta be hard, but we'll be damned if we don't see Aimee reaching her goal sooner than later!

Keep it up, Aimee!

Watch her dad talk about her (above)!
