Legendary rock singer Jon Bon Jovi, known for hits like “It’s My Life ,” recently made headlines not only for his music, but for his heroic action in saving the life of a young woman who was trying to jump off a bridge.
The incident occurred while the artist was filming his latest music video, and his quick intervention managed to prevent a tragedy.
According to TMZ, the incident took place last Tuesday at around 6:00 p.m. on the John Seigenthaler pedestrian bridge in Nashville, Tennessee.
Bon Jovi was in the middle of filming his new single “People’s House” when he noticed a woman standing on the edge of a railing, apparently intending to jump.
He immediately stopped recording and, together with a member of his team, approached the young woman to offer her support.
The shocking images were shared by the Nashville Police Department on social media, where the singer can be seen calmly interacting with the young woman.
Although it has not been revealed what words were exchanged, it is clear that Bon Jovi convinced her to return to safety.
After the emotional moment, the musician offered her a hug and stayed by her side until the emergency services arrived.
What few people knew was that Jon Bon Jovi was trained to handle crisis situations thanks to his foundation JBJ Soul, which allowed him to perform effectively in this type of scenario.
Authorities and fans have praised his bravery and humanity.
Nashville Police Chief John Drake said, “It’s vital that we all do our part to keep each other safe,” stressing the importance of such interventions.
