Enemy not respawning if they die by falling from map, why?

Weird thing is this used to work, I think. But I have a basic respawn script that is supposed to call a function in a script that does the real respawn but for some reason it is never called (likely due to script being destroyed before it has time to run?)

local robo = script.Parent.Name
local humanoid = script.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
local ourFunctions = require(game:GetService("ServerScriptService"):FindFirstChild("SavingFunctions"))
local DeathSound = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Head"):FindFirstChild("Died")

humanoid.Died:connect(function()
    print(robo, "DIED!")
    ourFunctions.RespawnEnemyEvent(robo) -- this does the respawning

    DeathSound:Play()

    -- unequip tool
    humanoid:UnequipTools()

    if script.Parent:FindFirstChild("FollowAI")then
        script.Parent:FindFirstChild("FollowAI").Disabled = true
    end

    if script.Parent:FindFirstChild("DamageScript") then
        script.Parent:FindFirstChild("DamageScript").Disabled = true
    end
end)

The print statement is not even running. The respawn works fine when the enemy is killed by the player or another NPC but doesn't when they fall from the map. Does anyone know a work around?
