Naked and Afraid star Sarah Danser has died aged 34 after being involved in a car crash.

The reality TV star appeared on the survival series in 2017 before returning the following year for the all-stars spin-off Naked and Afraid XL. Last year she starred in Fight to Survive.

Danser died after a 59-year-old male driver lost control in Kahala, Hawaii and crashed into a parked car, according to a Honolulu police statement shared with KSLA.

Danser, who had lived in Hawaii for 12 years, was a passenger in the car with the male driver and was hospitalised in critical condition on Sunday. She died of her injuries on Tuesday.

The male driver of the car that lost control and a woman in the parked car were taken to hospital with serious injuries. A man who was also in the parked car refused treatment.

Her father Dan Danser said in a tribute to the publication: ‘I actually saw how much of a difference she made in the lives of others. I think she saved my life once, diving in Indonesia.’

Friend and fellow diver Tim Mason also remembered ‘smart’ Danser. He said: ‘She went under the water. She found food, slugs and snails and stuff like that. She knew what to do to survive and she did great.’

In a tribute, her brother Jake Danser also said: ‘Magical is the way to describe her. Sarah had this positive energy about her that just really filled the environment that she was in.’
