Earlier this afternoon police responded to a 911 call about a man who was threatening to jump off a building in downtown Atlanta. This was the same building where Ryan Cameron’s Radio Show on V103 is based.

Apparently T.I. heard about the jumper on the radio & he called Ryan Cameron to see if there was something he could do to help out with the situation.

Ryan Cameron told T.I. to come to the building, where he met with authorities & recorded a very touching video message where the cops then played for the man on the roof.

After the man saw T.I.'s video, he agreed to step off the ledge... He met T.I. in the lobby, where the two were able to talk things out.

Will this situation help T.I. stay free from jail? Listen to T.I talking about the suicidal situation here.

[UPDATE]: Sources told TMZ what T.I. said in the video message: "Nothing is that bad. Nothing in life is worth taking your life. I'm here to help you. Please come down to talk to me."
