A woman has died after smashing her head into a lamp post while dangling outside a moving vehicle in the Dominican Republic.

A viral video of the incident shows the 35-year-old Russian woman - a mother of an 8-year-old son - hanging out of the passenger side window of a car while the driver recorded her on a mobile phone.

According to the Daily Mail, Natalia Borodina from Moscow took off her bikini top and stuck half her body out of the car window. She is seen letting her torso and arms hang free from the window while she laughs at the camera. Seconds later, she was hit by a lamp post as she leaned further outside the window.
