A popular YouTuber with a passion for motorbikes has died in an accident that occurred while she was riding her new bike.

Amanda Andrade Maturana, known online as “Amanda da 160”, died in Londrina, Brazil on the night of Friday, November 6.

Amanda, 22, amassed 70,000 Youtube subscribers and 50,000 Instagram followers by sharing her love for two-wheel power.
