Karol Rosalin, 26, said she became sick and lost all feeling in her buttocks after posing for pictures in the snow wearing just a bikini.
The Brazilian model, who has been dubbed the “Perfect Fitness Woman” by Playboy, was posing for snaps to post on social media before she suddenly fell ill.
She was shooting in Bariloche, in Patagonia, Argentina – where temperatures were reportedly as low as -5C.
Footage showed the beauty influencer posing in the icy mountains wearing nearly nothing before her terrifying ordeal.
She later explained to her nearly 2 million followers that the idea came from a trend she wanted to join.
Karol said the frosty wind made it feel even colder than the recorded temperature.
She also compared the sensation to being inside a fridge.
The online star then began to feel unwell and sought medical help before being hospitalised.
She told fans how she was left terrified after losing all feeling in her buttocks.
The shocking ordeal unfolded on August 25.
After receiving medical attention, she said on social media that she had recovered.
She said on Instagram: “My beautiful ones, I’m already fine. Thanks for the love!
“We do crazy things on the internet, right? Lol but it’s all right!”
Bariloche is a popular tourist destination in southern Argentina, known for its natural beauty and mountain landscapes.
Karol was named the woman with the most “Perfect Body” by Playboy Australia based on an AI analysis.
It comes after a Brit influencer was hospitalised after being found unconscious in her apartment in South Korea.
Ashley Surcombe, 29, was found by cops in Seoul severely dehydrated.
Her family have since revealed that she was diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS).
Ashley – originally from Evesham, Worcestershire – had lived in Seoul for five years.
The alarm was raised by the content creator’s parents, Nigel and Karen, after their daughter stopped replying to them.
Cops broke into the home where Ashley lived alone and found the Brit unconscious on the bathroom floor in March – before she was rushed to hospital.
