Pro skydiver plunges to her death after two parachutes fail

A professional skydiver fell to her death in Brazil after encountering problems with two of her parachutes.

Carolina Muñoz, 40, died after crashing onto a street Boituva, a city in the southeastern state of São Paulo, on Saturday afternoon.

Muñoz, a native of Santiago, Chile, was rushed to an area hospital, where she died from her injuries.

Terrifying video of the moments leading up to the crash show her spinning and then appearing to stabilize as she descends toward the ground.

Muñoz, who worked a physiotherapist and chiropractor, had been living in Brazil for more than five years, according to Brazilian news outlet G1.

She had been skydiving since 2013 and registered with the Brazilian Parachuting Confederation.

'At this difficult time, our thoughts are with our beloved athlete, her family and the entire parachuting community,' the Brazilian Parachuting Confederation said in a statement.

'We reiterate our commitment to the safety and integrity of everyone involved in our sporting activity.' 

Muñoz is scheduled to be cremated Wednesday and her ashes were going to be delivered to her family in Chile.

Family and friends were left stunned by her tragic passing and flooded her social media accounts with tributes.

'Thank you for allowing me to live by your side the greatest adventures that life can offer me! ' one friend wrote.

'We will all miss you very much, until one day our friend, may you rest in peace!' the person added. 

'Fly high, beautiful friend!' another wrote. Thank you for being in my life, for your support, your time, your kindness, the laughter, and those late-night study sessions. I adore you forever!'

Muñoz’s friend, Carols Schrappe, told Chilean television network TVN that she was looking into stepping away from the sport.

‘She wanted to quit skydiving, because she had lost some close friends in the past. And she was transitioning her career to freediving,’ Schrappe said.

‘She wanted to slowly quit it, not completely, because she really enjoyed it and had experience. She knew the risks, she was very eager, but unfortunately there was no time.’
