Jon Bon Jovi Saves Woman’s Life
Jon Bon Jovi is not only one of the world’s most popular musicians, he has a gift for helping those in need!
He was filming a music video on a Nashville pedestrian bridge this week when he stepped in to help a woman in crisis.
Surveillance footage shows Bon Jovi approach the woman, who was standing on the ledge of the bridge.
He talked with her for a few minutes, then helped get her to a safer part of the bridge.
The Metropolitan Nashville Police Department said on X: “A shout out to @jonbonjovi & his team for helping a woman on the Seigenthaler Ped Bridge Tue night. Bon Jovi helped persuade her to come off the ledge over the Cumberland River to safety.”
