  1. Was the mikve itself the cause of death? Or did he suffer a heart attack or stroke while in the mikve?
    Either way, he died b’tahara.

  2. No, he is still alive! The headline should be changed. They revived him. (As you can see the article left his name-ben- his mother’s name – a cholah not a meis.)
