Settanni was commuting along the State Road 408 expressway in Orlando when she noticed a man sitting on the edge of an overpass. I did pass him at first, I saw him, said Settanni in a video segment produced by the Orange County Sheriffs Office. I didnt really think about stopping, but I thought as I saw him in my rearview, I probably should stop, especially since no one else did.

Ive been where he was, continued Settanni. I know what its like to stand on the ledge and think that thats your only option. Sitting with the man on the ledge, she offered up a Linkin Park lyric: Who cares if one more light goes out / Well I do.

At first, a local deputy thought they were making some kind of suicide pact. But when I walked up and she had that really calm demeanor, it looked more like she was trying to help him, said the deputy in the Sheriffs Offices video. The man was eventually taken to a mental healthcare facility.

Knowing what he went through, and knowing how it hurt him (Chester, Obviously)....its easy to make fun of Linkin Park Lyrics as edgy or try hard, but....Knowing the reality of it all makes it pretty serious. Especially that song.

He was one step closer to the edge and was about to break.

I literally dont know the lyrics to any of their songs

Pretty weird story but still heartwarming I guess
