Rock legend Jon Bon Jovi has been praised by police for helping a woman in distress who was on the ledge of a bridge in Nashville, Tennessee, on Tuesday night.
The Metropolitan Nashville Police Department shared a video of the Bon Jovi frontman and his team who were at the John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge when the woman was standing precariously over the Cumberland River.
Bon Jovi, 62, and others talked to the woman and helped her come back on to the bridge, police said.
“It takes all of us to help keep each other safe,” Ch John Drake said in a brief statement.

I don’t know why he’s being praised. Do people not realize that the bridge is 16 feet tall? From the deck to the water. The woman was clearly begging for attention. People who are gonna commit suicide. Would just jump and not sit there and wait for someone to come up to them. That’s a certified fact.
If it was Van Halen it would have been awkward
Wow those people who walk on by like there’s nothing going on. Scumbags.
