Rock star Jon Bon Jovi and his team talked a woman down from a ledge on the Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge in downtown Nashville on Tuesday, the Metro Nashville Police Department said in a social media post.
Bon Jovi was filming a music video for his song “The People’s House” on the bridge, which remained open to the public during the shoot. In a video posted by MNPD, a woman wearing a blue shirt is seen over the ledge of the bridge with her arms wrapped around its railing.

The video shows Bon Jovi and a production assistant walking along the bridge, which spans the Cumberland River between downtown Nashville and Nissan Stadium, and greeting the woman on the ledge. The musician leans against the rail.
Bon Jovi performs at Bridgestone Arena Saturday February 18, 2017.
The production assistant begins talking to the woman before Bon Jovi joins in.
The woman then turns toward Bon Jovi and the production assistant, and they help her over the railing.

Once safe, the woman and Bon Jovi face each other, and the Grammy-winning singer hugs her before the group walks away, according to The Tennessean.
