30-40 people die in sauna annually. Most of them over men over 50, with a severe disease (like heart disease or diabetes), and drunk. Seehttp://www.stat.fi/artikkelit/2011/art_2011-05-30_008.html (in Finnish only).
And one died in the sauna world championship games (since canceled). He had taken painkillers, and just refused to quit.
