Swedish skier Matilda Rapaport died after an avalanche occurred during a film shoot in Chile for the Ubisoft-published extreme sports game, Steep. Rapaport was 30 years old.
The avalanche occurred on July 14, and although Rapaport was rescued, the injuries sustained left her in a comatose state. Doctors fought to save her in the days that followed, but were unsuccessful. The skier was pro**unced dead on July 18.
