If Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar didn't have 19 kids, then two of them might not have been around to help save a six-year-old girl's life last week in Arkansas.
According to KHBS News, Joshua and John Duggar pulled the girl out of her car after a crash in front of Josh's car dealership left her unconscious -- then started administering CPR and called 911.
When the fire department arrived, Josh held the IV bag as firefighters took over -- and John shot the whole thing on his cell phone.
No word on if the vid will show up on a very special episode of "19 and Counting."

Phil Harris -- the captain of the F/V Cornelia Marie on "Deadliest Catch" -- underwent a 12-hour emergency surgery last night ... and was put in a medically induced coma.
Harris suffered a stroke on Friday and was rushed to the hospital. According to a source close to the family, doctors put Harris in a coma to reduce brain swelling after the surgery.
We're told his sons Jake and Josh -- who are both deckhands on the F/V Cornelia Marie -- plan to speak with doctors today. The F/V Cornelia Marie is currently back out at sea -- minus Harris and his two sons.
Harris was off-loading his boat when the stroke hit and he was immediately airlifted to an Anchorage hospital -- where a Discovery rep says Harris "is resting comfortably and is in the care of excellent doctors and nurses."

Renee Zellweger got nailed today in Pacific Palisades.
For some reason Renee was visiting Bradley Cooper's new house sometime before 9 AM. Bradley hasn't even moved in yet and he was nowhere in sight.
Renee parked her Prius on the street and got out. When she eventually returned to the car at 9, she opened the driver's door to get in, when an elderly woman in a BMW almost took Renee and the door out.
Renee was unscathed but her door got nailed.
Fifteen minutes later Bradley showed up and Renee hitched a ride.

Former UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton "Rampage" Jackson was involved in a two-car accident this week -- involving another one of his ridiculously awesome vehicles.
TMZ has learned Rampage was driving a new black Audi R8 -- valued at more than $100k -- home from the Audi dealership in Orange County, California on Tuesday when he was hit by a woman driving a very not expensive black car.
We're told Rampage was not injured in the wreck, but the back end of his badass ride suffered some pretty extensive -- and expensive -- damage.
Rampage tells TMZ police arrived on scene and cleared him of all wrongdoing. The UFC fighter added, "I am thankful and happy no one was hurt. I tried to make sure the elderly woman that hit my car was OK ... she didn't speak much English, but I could see she wasn't hurt in any way."
As for his own condition, Rampage said, "I am fine, the little old lady is fine, but my car got hurt, and for that I'm sad."
