Generally, being tired doesn't mean you're going to die or other people will die because of it. I'm tired right now, so I'm going to go sleep. This wont cause the death of me or others.

Yes it does if you are crossing the street and are too tired to properly react to an incoming vehicle. Or in my case I'm too tired to finish this paper right now and my teacher teacher is going to kill me. >_

All these examples prove that "Tiredness could potentially kill", not that "Tiredness does kill".

He only left the game for short rest periods and to go to the bathroom. He was taken to the hospital following his collapse and died. Korean police stated that his death was most likely caused by heart failure stemming from exhaustion (BBC, 2). In 2005, at least seven South Koreans died from deep vein thrombosis, heart failure, or exhaustion associated with marathon gaming sessions (Ihlwan, 42)."

Gaming kills. I reported on this for my media coursework two years ago, my classmates loved me......

I understand but no no no. The key here is that they died of *Exhaustion. Not gaming. Therefore, tiredness does kill! ;)
