Jon Bon Jovi helps talk ‘distraught’ woman off ledge of Nashville bridge​

Rock legend Jon Bon Jovi was on a bridge in downtown Nashville when he spotted something alarming: a woman standing on the ledge.

The singer and performer approached the woman and helped talk her off the ledge and back onto solid ground, in an incident Tuesday night that was captured by security cameras and shared online by Nashville police.

The unexpected case of right time, right place involving a world-famous celebrity prompted Nashville Police Chief John Drake to say in a statement posted on X that “It takes all of us to help keep each other safe.”

The Nashville Tennessean reported that Bon Jovi, 62, was filming scenes for a music video for his song “The People’s House” on the Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge, which crosses the Cumberland River and connects downtown Nashville to East Nashville. It had remained open to the public during filming, and as pedestrians streamed past the camera crews, Bon Jovi and a production assistant spotted the woman, the outlet reported.

When He Had No One in the ER, His Uber Driver Stayed. How 1 Act of Kindness Changed Their Lives Forever​

Seven years ago, a college freshman named Joey Romano was skateboarding near the University of Texas at Austin when he swerved to avoid a car and slammed into a ditch, breaking his wrist.

Romano made a choice that would change his life, though he couldn’t have known it at the time: He called an Uber instead of an ambulance.

“I didn’t have very good insurance, and I was worried about the cost,” Romano, now 29, tells TODAY.com.

When driver Beni Lukumu arrived, Romano was still lying on the ground. Carefully, Lukumu helped him into the car, reclining the passenger seat to minimize movement and pain. Their first stop was urgent care, but Romano’s injury was too serious, and he was quickly sent to the emergency room.

A stranger came to help me out when I was stranded on the side of the road. He had a profound impact on my life.​

  • My partner and I were traveling back to university when our tire went flat.
  • It was getting late and I hadn't learned how to take care of a flat tire.
  • A stranger came alongside us to help us change the tire before dark and left without a word.
On the way back to university from a visit to see family, my partner and I found ourselves between a rock and a hard place. I was still pretty young, but, honestly, I should have known how to change a flat tire by that point in life. I started looking through the owner's manual for instructions as the sun began to set and a sense of unease started to settle over me.
