Are you talking about Quantum Entanglement?
I've read about Quantum Entanglement, but I honest don't quite understand it.

It's petty easy actually.
I enjoy Quantum Immortality far more.

Welcome to the club. You are not alone, in fact there is no one who "understands" quantum entanglement.
Entanglement appearsto demonstrate faster than light communication between pairs of particles (of their respective spin). This is seen as a violation of special relativity by some, or "spooky action at a distance" as Einstein put it.
Personally I think that matter is not bound to the XYZ+T dimensions we perceive, and entanglement may be a manifestation of connection through a dimension we do not perceive.
Think of a drafting compass drawing two points on a piece of paper:
The movement and actions of one point are dependent on the other and will instantly change regardless of their separation on the page. If your perception is limited to the flat pane of the page upon which they are drawn, you too might call this "spooky action at a distance". But since you can perceive 3 dimensions, not 2, then the explanation is perfectly obvious.

After 10 pages, I have to ask, how many of you are physicists? I'm sure as hell not.
