Yes, indeed a person can die from this. But than again, it is highly unlikely a person will lose enough CSF to die, it usually patches off and stops draining. Now the CSF can cause pressure in the brain and it can cause death. That's the only way I know of that has to do with csf and dying
So more so, it can lead to death. But it don't necessarily cause death itself.
What else can I help you with?
What in the gray commissure of the spinal cord contains cerebrospinal fluid and is continuious with the ventricles of the brain?

Where is cerebrospinal fluid extracted from?
Cerebrospinal fluid is extracted from the subarachnoid space in the brain and spinal cord through a procedure called a lumbar puncture, also known as a spinal tap.
What cushions and protects the CNS?
The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) acts as a cushion for the central nervous system (CNS), providing a protective layer around the brain and spinal cord. In addition, the meninges, which are the protective membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord, also help to cushion and protect the CNS from injury and infection.
What are the membrane connections that prevent the leaking of fluid between cells?
tight junctions
A lumbar tap removes what kind of fluid?

Does leaking spinal fluid cause a low blood pressure?
yes
What does it mean when no fluid is drawn when a spinal tap is done?
It usually means whomever was performing the lumbar puncture or "spinal tap" missed the sub-dural space where the spinal fluid is located. It may also be that the patient was dehydrated or was leaking CSF (cerebral-spinal fluid) thus making it very difficult to obtain a sample.
How does the body lose spinal fluid?
Spinal fluid leaks can be caused by punctures or disease in the spinal cord.
What are symptoms of leaking spinal fluid?
This is assuming post-op spinal surgery, following a lumbar puncture, or severe back,head trauma... Headache when sitting up that goes away when lying down, obvious leakage of spinal fluid at the surgical/trauma site... In facial/head trauma a runny nose of clear fluid. Usually goes away after several days of bed rest.
