A young woman unexpectedly dropped and died while working out at a gym in Ecuador.
As reported by the New York Post, a woman who was identified as 28-year-old Betsy Dayana Jaramillo Ramírez is believed to have suffered a heart attack at Zona Muscular gym in Ecuador on November 29.
Surveillance footage captured Ramírez doing squats and weightlifting - presumably in front of a fitness teacher - when she suddenly stopped and fell on the ground.
Due to the sudden drop, people around the woman rushed to help until paramedics arrived. They sat her in the recovery position and continuously checked her pulse.
Ramírez was then rushed to Santa Teresita Hospital but arrived with no signs of life. Tragically, the doctors pronounced her dead upon arrival.
The cause of her death is yet to be confirmed by medics and investigators, however, it is thought that the young woman may have suffered a heart attack.
As stated by the outlet, Ramírez's family members have commented on her unexpected death and have revealed that she regularly went to the gym where she collapsed.
The devastating news follows another recent tragedy after a woman died instantly when she dropped a 400-lb weight at a gym in Mexico.
According to News.com.au, the incident took place at a Gym Fitness Sport gym on February 21, and the unnamed woman is believed to have been between aged 35 and 40 years old.
The gym-goer was reportedly exercising with her daughter when the tragic incident occurred. The haunting accident was captured on the gym's surveillance camera and shows other people immediately rushing to help her.
In the moments before her death, the security cam revealed a man modifying the weights on the barbell before the woman positions herself to lift it.
But it all goes tragically wrong after the bar immediately slammed the back of her neck and pinned her down. The man and the young girl then tried to lift it off her but their attempts were in vain.
Two other people can be seen rushing over to help raise the heavy device, with the woman then drooping lifelessly on the floor.
The outlet reported that the deceased woman's daughter has been left traumatized by the terrifying incident and is believed to be receiving psychological support.
Furthermore, the owner of the gym - who has also not been named - was briefly arrested in order to confirm the woman's identity.
