Hello,
Gas per se will not cause one to die but it can sometimes cause anginal pain by reflex mechanism.
Many a times heart attack causes symptoms similar to gas and heart burn, associated with diaphoresis or sweating, uneasiness. So in these situations one may neglect the symptoms and consider it to be gas problem leading to complications and death. So in short, heart attack and gas problem have similar symptoms and heart attack is one which causes death, not gas problem.
