Moments before the tragedy Amanda was standing inside the flashy motor and filming herself on her phone as her fans watched on.
Amanda and her three friends inside the motor were coming home from a night out in the city of João Pessoa, northern Brazil.
She was taking videos to post on her social media at the time of the accident.
Footage from inside the car shows the 24-year-old with her head out of the sunroof waving her phone in the air.
The clips then switches to CCTV surveillance of Amanda sitting on top of the moving vehicle before she dramatically slips off the side as the car brakes hard.
The influencer can be seen crashing down onto the busy road as the clip stops.
Amanda was then hit by another car as it turned into the road as she laid on the ground.
She was pronounced dead due to the traumatic injuries shortly after.
The tragic events happened in the Bancários neighbourhood in the city of João Pessoa, near Recife.
Surveillance footage shows the women were travelling shortly after midnight on Monday, November 18.
The victim’s friends who could be seen inside the vehicle were taken to the local police station to give their statements on what happened.
The Civil Police are continuing to investigate Amanda’s death to try and piece together the exact circumstances leading up to the tragedy.
Investigator Getúlio Machado is leading the case and has already requested CCTV from the venue of the party up to the road where the body was found.
The people with Amanda at the time of the accident have also been asked to testify again to align up their stories.
They hope to find out more information in the coming days.
It comes just weeks after a pair of influencers drowned as they refused to wear life jackets when the party boat they were on sank.
Aline Tamara Moreira de Amorim, 37, and Beatriz Tavares da Silva Faria, 27, died as they reportedly thought the life-saving gear would ruin their “selfies.”
Tragedy struck after an overcrowded boat was sunk by a wave on a stretch of coast known as the Devil’s Throat off the coast of Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Police revealed two women refused to wear life jackets on September 29.
