NASHVILLE, Tennessee — Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Jon Bon Jovi and a video production assistant convinced a woman standing on the edge of a Nashville pedestrian bridge to jump over the railing and back to safety.
According to police, the encounter took place Tuesday on the Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge, which spans the Cumberland River.
The Tennessean reported that Bon Jovi was filming a music video on the bridge, which remained open to the public during filming.
Video posted to YouTube but later deleted showed the assistant talking to the woman. The Grammy-winning frontman slowly walked up to the woman, waved at her and joined in the conversation.
Finally, the woman turned to the two, and they helped her over the railing to safety. Bon Jovi spoke to the woman and hugged her.
Representatives for Bon Jovi did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
