During the stunt, the 25-year-old reportedly made a wrong manoeuvre and crashed her motorcycle.

Paramedics rushed to the scene and immediately took her to a local hospital.

She had sustained very severe injuries and could not be saved.

Shortly afterwards, the young woman passed away at the hospital.

Tassiane, a licensed and experienced rider, would have performed for the first time at the Circo Rocco on November 10.

In a statement, the circus said it was available to authorities to collaborate with the investigations but did not specify whether it would continue with the performances.

A spokesperson for Circo Rocca said: “The team is devastated by this irreparable loss and offers its deepest condolences to the young artist’s family, friends and fans.”
