Miss Venezuela beauty queen, Ariana Viera, 26, dies in horror crash after ‘predicting her own funeral months before’
A BEAUTY queen has died in a horror car crash after appearing to predict her own funeral just months before.
Ariana Viera, 26, is feared to have fallen asleep at the wheel while driving through Orlando, Florida, on July 13.
Her mum Vivian Ochoa claimed she rammed into the vehicle in front of her after passing out.
Vivian said paramedics rushed to the scene and revived her daughter twice, but she died on the way to the hospital.
In a tragic twist, Ariana had posted a video on her Instagram page in May with the caption: “Filming myself for my future funeral because it's always me in the videos, no one else does it.”
Vivian told local media: “They revived her and she then had a heart attack.

“They revived her again, but she passed away when they were taking her to trauma care.”
She added: “My girl fell asleep, she was tired.”
The model - who held the Miss Venezuela title - was due to represent Venezuela at the Miss Latin America and Miss World pageants this year.
She had been preparing to make her debut in a fashion show in New York City.
Ariana had a budding modelling career and also ran her own company called Full House Cleaning.
Local media said the victim’s father, who lives in Peru, tried to organise a visa in time for his daughter’s funeral on July 16 but was allegedly issued the document one day too late.
Heartbroken fans of Ariana have taken to social media to share tributes.
One wrote: "Always shine bright. I love you."
Another said: "Rest in peace baby girl.
"It's a shame to see someone so full of life leave in such a way."
A third commented: "So young and too much life ahead."
