Jon Bon Jovi stops woman from jumping off Nashville bridge in heart-wrenching

Jon Bon Jovi talked someone out of taking her own life in a video shared by the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department on Wednesday.

The heart-wrenching video — which was recorded Tuesday evening and shared on YouTube — shows the “Livin’ on a Prayer” hitmaker slowly approaching a woman on the famous John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge in Nashville, Tenn.

He happened to be filming a music video for his song “People’s House” when he and his team noticed the woman standing on the outer ledge of the bridge and clenching onto the handrails.

Bon Jovi, 62, stopped a few feet away from the woman and began speaking to her before moving closer alongside another bystander.

It’s unclear what was said, but the singer and the other individual appeared to convince the woman in distress to return to the main part of the bridge. The video shows the pair helping the woman back over the railing before further speaking to her.

The trio then walked off.

A source close to the situation confirmed to Page Six that Bon Jovi happened to be filming his music video when he noticed the distraught woman.

They also said he has extensive training in interacting with people in crisis due to his Jon Bon Jovi Soul Foundation.
