Bystanders accidentally recorded her final moments on video. Daniela can be seen standing completely naked behind the balcony railing, appearing disoriented and holding on with just her hands. Moments later, she lets go, shocking everyone present.
The fall caused critical injuries, and she was rushed to the hospital, where she sadly died shortly after being admitted.
Residents of the neighborhood reported that she had seemed very downcast and unhappy in recent days when they encountered her.
According to some Colombian media outlets, this was not her first suicide attempt. She had allegedly jumped from the 10th floor in the past and miraculously survived without lasting injuries or major trauma. Unfortunately, this time she did not.
