Yes, you can die from insomnia... but you'll have to try harder. lol
I went for 6 weeks getting only 2 hours a night, followed immediately by 2 full weeks getting only ~15 minutes a night~. I have (honestly) some permanent brain damage from it, but even then I was a good way from life-threatening symptoms.
Theoretically, you need to have ZERO sleep for 7 days to risk death. That 15 minutes a day was just enough to keep my head above water. ;-)
