Imagine looking up to see that Armie Hammer is the guy helping you out of a tragic situation. 

The actor got added to our list of celebrity heroes today after finding out that he and model Leeann Tweeden went to the aid of some strangers who got into a car accident on Friday night. 

Luckily, Tweeden gave a detailed description of what happened on her Facebook page

"So random random RANDOM. I was sitting in my house when I hear an accident tonight. I throw on my shoes and run out of my house to see if I can help," she wrote. "I see it's on my (busy) corner and run down that way. I run up as a guy is helping an older woman (60ish?) out of her smashed up car that both airbags deployed in.

"Now mind you, it's rush hour at a busy intersection. People are honking at other cars because one lane is blocked and people can't go through the debris in the open lane fast enough for others.

"But it's me and this guy helping the woman (2 other girls are there. One was a witness on her Vespa. The other in her car in the parking lot of the flower shop.)"

And then she finds out that "this guy" is not just any other guy. 

"When the guy turns around, who is it?!!!! None other than: ARMIE HAMMER!!!!! (Yes, from the Social Network, J. Edgar and the upcoming The Lone Ranger with Johnny Depp!) 

"Yes, ladies. The cutie Armie was in the opposite turn lane in his Audi and watched the whole thing go down and got out of his car to help. Me and him. Out of millions in LA."

How exciting! Tweeden also mentioned that she had met the actor and his wife once before, and leaves fans knowing that "no one was seriously injured."
