According to the local newspaper The Tennessean, Bon Jovi was in the process of recording a music video for the song “The People’s House”. The bridge was still open to the public while the recording took place. The police say the dramatic incident happened on Tuesday at the Seigenthaler footbridge in Nashville, the capital of the state of Tennessee. The music video recording for Jon Bon Jovi was more dramatic than anyone had thought beforehand.

This is what Lars Mehlum, head of the National Center for Suicide Research and Prevention, told news. – If possible, you should also try to get help from the police or other emergency services, because they often have expertise in how to act in such situations, says Mehlum. – We all need each other to keep us safe, said police chief John Drake in a statement after the incident. Long career The artist has not wanted to comment on the incident, out of consideration for the woman he helped. He is best known as the vocalist in the rock group Bon Jovi, which was formed in 1983.
