Looks like only the scarecrow died from it (and his cancer may not have even been caused by the asbestos)

Tinman almost died on set due to the unsafe body paint, too iirc

The whole production was a giant trainwreck. The asbestos is only a small part of it

I have heard lf the asbestos use, but did they actually die from it?
