Woman Known as 'Bikini Climber' Freezes to Death After 65-Foot Fall
A Taiwanese woman, known as the “Bikini Climber”, has tragically died after freezing to death following a fall.

GiGi Wu, 36, was embarking on a 25-day hike when she stumbled 65 feet down a ravine in Central Taiwan’s Yushan Mountain, Taiwan News reported.

Due to the impact of the fall, Wu sustained injuries to her leg and was unable to move, the outlet reported.

Despite her many calls for help, emergency responders were not able to immediately reach her as weather conditions were extremely dangerous.

Nearly 28 hours later, Wu was airlifted out but was pronounced dead, officials said, according to local site Liberty News.
