Erdogan 'talks man out of suicide'

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan used his celebrated rhetorical skills to save a life on Friday, preventing a man from jumping off Istanbul's Bosphorus Bridge.   The man had climbed over a railing on the bridge linking Europe with Asia and was threatening to kill himself. Erdogan's motorcade was crossing the bridge at the time. Television pictures showed Erdogan's staff asking the sobbing man to talk to the president. After a few moments, he was escorted to safety. The man was suffering depression due to family problems, reports said.
