I don't know if it is true but if it is, it would appear many people have died simply to claim benefits..............

Both of these assessments are far too easy.
Indeed. But there is quite a significant number of deaths it seems in those figures.

Now, either those who are rejected are exceedingly accident prone and die falling off ladders etc at a significantly igreater proportion than the general public..... OR it is a reasonable assumption to suggest that some (let's call it 50%) died of the conditions and/or its impact upon them, that they were trying to claim disability for.
