Rock star Jon Bon Jovi and his team rescued a woman who fell from a ledge on the Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge in downtown Nashville on Tuesday, Metro Nashville Police said in a social media post.

Bon Jovi filmed a music video for his song “The People's House” on the bridge, and the bridge remained open to the public during filming. In a video posted by MNPD, a woman in a blue shirt can be seen standing over the edge of the bridge with her arms wrapped around the railing.

The video shows Bon Jovi and a production assistant walking along the bridge that spans the Cumberland River between downtown Nashville and Nissan Stadium and greeting the woman on the ledge, with the musician leaning on the railing.

The production assistant starts talking to the woman before Bon Jovi comes in.

The woman then turns to Bon Jovi and the production assistant and they help her over the railing.

Once they are safe, the woman and Bon Jovi face each other and the Grammy winner hugs her before the group walks away.
