According to The Sun, the London-based rapper was nearby recording a music video when he noticed paramedics and police cars attending to a 27-year-old guy.
The man was apparently a fan of Dappy and the rapper requested that the cops allow him to assist him.
“Dappy was filming his new music video around Tower Bridge, but saw loads of police cars and ambulances dotted around,” a source told the publication. “The bridge got closed off, and police asked him to leave the area.”
“As he was walking away, Dappy heard this young guy shouting his name and waving frantically as he was perched precariously in an arch directly over the Thames.
“They spent about ten minutes talking, and Dappy was amazing. He told him life was beautiful, and that things would get better basically.
“As a result, the guy let medics climb up and help get him off.”
Dappy’s partner Imani Campbell confirmed the reports on Instagram, saying, “‘I truly believe the universe sent us to that bridge so Daps could save this young man’s life.”
“As soon as he recognised Daps his whole demeanour changed, we saw hope appear in his eyes.
“Daps told him his life is precious and that he loves him… he talked him off the bridge… the man and his family reached out and he is alive and well.”
Taking to his Instagram Story, Dappy said to his followers, “Like I said, as long as I can help even just two people a week, I’m happy.”
We love to hear stories that turn out this well. Dappy’s efforts went to save a life and today there is another family happily rejoicing for the life spared.
