This man wanted to jump off the Golden Gate Bridge in 2005. Now he and the officer who saved him help others in crisis

In 2005, Officer Kevin Briggs of the California Highway Patrol saved a man’s life on the Golden Gate Bridge.

That man, Kevin Berthia, was very sad, but thanks to Officer Briggs’ compassion and determination, he stepped back from the bridge.

Fast forward to 2024—10 years later, and these two reunited at the same bridge. Kevin Berthia has turned his life around: happily married with two kids and now an advocate for mental health awareness. His journey is a powerful reminder that life can change for the better, no matter how dark the moment.

It’s not just about a rescue; it’s about human connection, hope, and second chances. 💙✨

Thank you, Officer Kevin Briggs, for being a light in Kevin Berthia’s darkest hour. And thank you, Kevin, for showing us that there is always hope. 🙏
