Singer seen speaking to woman who climbed over bridge railing and stood on ledge before helping her down
Singer seen speaking to woman who climbed over bridge railing and stood on ledge before helping her down Musician Jon Bon Jovi has been praised after CCTV recorded him talking a distressed woman down from the edge of a bridge in Nashville, Tennessee.
Video: ReutersThe incident took place on the city’s Seigenthaler pedestrian bridge on Tuesday evening, which spans the Cumberland river. In surveillance footage, the woman is seen to have climbed over the bridge’s railing and is stood on a ledge on the other side. Bon Jovi is pictured calmly engaging in conversation with the woman, before he and a companion help the woman back over the railing. Later, Bon Jovi gives her a warm embrace and walks with her back across the bridge. “It takes all of us to help keep each other safe,” police chief John Drake said in a statement shared on X. Bon Jovi was widely praised on social media, with one user posting on his Instagram page: “From everyone who has struggled, thank you for stopping.”Harris has Trump’s measure - but she still faces steep climb to election win The Bon Jovi founder and frontman released his 16th studio album with the group earlier this year, Forever, which reached the US and UK Top 5. He has faced difficulties with his voice in recent years, with a damaged vocal cord preventing him from touring. “I’m more than capable of singing again. The bar is now: can I do two and a half hours a night, four nights a week? The answer is no,” he told the Guardian in June. Bon Jovi is known for his social conscience: as a philanthropist he has helped those on low incomes, opening four outlets of his Soul Kitchen restaurant with a pay-what-you-can scheme, as well as funding housing and health initiatives. – GuardianCCTV shows Jon Bon Jovi talking woman down from bridge in NashvilleApple warned Government of ‘real threat to Ireland’ from countries trying to lure multinationals awaySpray foam insulation: as 300,000 UK homeowners are left in a tight spot, Irish surveyors have their own warningsConsumer class actions legislation requires work to be effective
