NOTE: The code here is untested.
Use the Died event of humanoids.
workspace.Player.Humanoid.Died:connect(function()
print('Player died!')
end)
Then we just incorporate a value.
local dead = false
workspace.Player.Humanoid.Died:connect(function()
dead = true
end)
To make it work with anybody that joins the game, use PlayerAdded.
local dead = false
game.Players.PlayerAdded:conect(function(player)
repeat wait() until player.Character
player.Character.Humanoid.Died:connect(function()
dead = true
end)
end)

LocalPlayer.CharacterRemoving That's an event that fires after the LocalPlayer dies. It would help to distinguish player death from player left within your script.

It's not best to use CharacterRemoving for a script that only detects death because it runs ANY time the player's character is removed, say like when the player leaves.
