(CNN) A popular social media fitness personality died after what can only be described as a freak accident involving a whipped cream canister. Rebecca Burger was a French fitness blogger and competitor with more than 150,000 Instagram followers . According to a cautionary Instagram post written by her family, a pressurized whipped cream dispenser exploded, hitting the 33-year-old in the thorax and sending her into cardiac arrest Sunday. "This is an example of the whipped cream siphon that exploded and hit Rebecca's thorax, leading to her death," her family wrote under a photo of a metal device. Women's Best, a fitness company that often partnered with the model, posted a tribute to Burger, calling her a "beautiful soul."
