TMZ has more info on what T.I. said to the jumper he talked down off a ledge in Atlanta yesterday. T.I. says he heard about the jumper on the radio, went to the scene and asked a cop if there was anything he could do to help.
Cops told the jumper T.I. wanted to talk to him. The jumper, not believing it, was sent a cell phone recording of T.I. giving him a message. The guy came down 15 minutes later.
But what exactly did T.I. tell the guy while he was on the ledge and after he came down? This. T.I. told him this. “I want to speak to you, and that it’s not that bad. I’m willing to do whatever it is to help the situation, but I can’t do that unless you help me help you.”
Once the guy came off the ledge into the lobby, T.I. got philosophical and laid it on thick. “No matter how bad things get they get better … if you unplug the game then you don’t get extra men … when it gets bad, you feel bad, but it can get better.”
Even Conscious nodded his head after hearing this and was all like, “word.” That’s some powerful stuff right there. Real Tony Robbins sh-t.
T.I. says he plans to keep in touch with the man saying he’ll do anything to help make him better.
