Champion yachtswoman Florence Arthaud, Olympic gold medal swimmer Camille Muffat, and Olympic boxer Alexis Vastine - all of them were killed in the helicopter crash that killed ten people, including two Argentinean pilots.

The helicopters crashed as a result of a midair collision. The reasons for the collision are being investigated. No details have been exposed about the weather conditions during the moment of the crash. Reportedly, the weather conditions were flight favorable.
