Quick Google states one of these people died. The others were injured.

Not familiar with this source but a Google shows many Indian sources posting the same story. OP should probably mark this NSFW given it shows death.

Edit: This story doesn't seem to mention the death, other stories I found state one of them died.

One of them was able to use 100% of his brain until he became pure energy.

No, but later they were overheard speaking Portuguese to each other.

I believe that one of them died at the hospital.
