Miss Venezuela Ariana Viera has died due to the injuries she suffered from a car crash in Florida last month. She was 26.

The accident took place on July 13, reported Marca.com. Viera’s car collided with a truck near Orlando’s Lake Nona, the report added.

Viera’s mother Vivian Ochoa said that her daughter rammed into the truck in front of her after passing out, reported Telemundo 31.

“They revived her and she then had a heart attack. They revived her again, but she passed away when they were taking her to trauma care. My girl fell asleep, she was tired,” Ochoa said.

The report added that Viera’s father, who lives in Peru, couldn’t attend her funeral as his “humanitarian visa” was issued a day later.

Reacting to the post, a user said, “Whenever I see this type of tragedy that later the deceased has left a video where he talks about his death in the future, it almost always happens that he dies, and I wonder when one thinks and makes videos of beautiful things because they don't happen like they do. tragedy, just a curiosity with great certainty.”

Another added, “The word has as much power to give life as to give death.”

“What a bad joke this is... and now it's reality,” read a comment.
