In an unbelievable twist, a man has been dragged out of death's jaw by the president of Turkey who did a most unheard of thing.
The suicidal man is saved from death
The President of Turkey has written his name into the hearts of many after he did an unbelievable act of saving a suicidal man from jumping off a bridge.
This is the dramatic moment the Turkish president stopped on his way to Friday prayers and appeared to stop a suicidal man jumping from a bridge.
Recep Erdogan's motorcade was crossing the Bosphorus Bridge - which connects Europe to Asia - yesterday when he made a sudden stop to save a man who must have become tired of the world.

He got out along with his security detail and appeared to talk down the man who was clinging on to the outside railings. After a few moments talking to Erdogan the man, who appeared to be in his 30s, kissed the President's hand and was escorted to safety.
Local media reported police had been trying to help the man, who was suffering from depression, for several hours before the president intervened.
