The only people to have ever died in space were the three crewmembers of Soyuz 11.
No, Columbia had reentered the atmosphere already, so not in space
It may have broken up below the karman line, but space isn't a hard cutoff. The atmosphere was still far too thin to not need a pressure suit at that altitude, and both missions failed due to problems that would come into effect upon performing the re-entry maneuver.
Correct. People have died on the way to and back from space, but never in space. So in terms of human deaths, 100% have occurred on earth or in its atmosphere.
3-man crew of Soyuz 11 is considered to have died in space as another commenter mentioned
Animals and insects have been sent up, and failed to return alive.
Dangerous for your mental health as well, as it's the only place in the solar system where you can encounter Brooklyn Man
