Other gym members quickly rushed to her aid, attempting to revive her, but she remained unresponsive.

In the footage, a man is seen lifting her and placing her on the floor before the recording ends.

The incident took place on Monday, February 17, in Santo Estêvão, Brazil.

According to local reports, Soares had complained of a severe headache while working out and appeared to struggle with her breathing just moments before losing consciousness.

A gym instructor reportedly provided first aid while waiting for emergency services to arrive.

Soares was transported to a nearby hospital, but tragically, she was declared dead en route.
