However, the expedition went horribly wrong, and Ms Jiménez had an accident - the exact details of which are not yet known.

Rescue teams acted swiftly, but there was nothing they could do to save her.

A helicopter was called to the scene where they found Ms Jiménez but tragically, she was pronounced dead at the scene. Ms Jiménez’s body was then transported to Legal Medicine in Huesca for a post-mortem.

Pablo Motos, the host of the show, emotionally spoke out and said, “Marta has left us, the adrenaline woman, she lost her life doing what she loved most.”

One of her most memorable moments, which still is a highlight for many of the viewers, was in October last year when Ms Jiménez jumped from a crane at more than 197ft (60m) high.

This hair-raising stunt was mentioned in Mr Moto’s tribute post on Instagram, which read:

“Marta is gone. The adrenaline lady. She lost her life doing what she loved most. We are devastated. But our feeling of powerlessness and our sadness will not prevent us from remembering her when she screamed for joy for having achieved something impossible. I share with you, through tears, one of those moments.”
