I know for sure that it happened to Dick Shawn. He was pretending to fake a heart attack, had a real one, fell to the stage and got a big 2 min laugh....until they saw he wasn’t moving.

Wasn’t there a famous comedian in the US that did that? Died on stage during his monologue?

When comedian Pinky Lee had a heart attack onstage in 1955, no one came to his aid because everyone thought that his contortions and pleas for help were part of his act. However, he survived and lived nearly four decades longer.
I recall the kid’s show on local TV in Southern California that he hosted beginning in 1962.

IIRC Eric Morecombe died on stage - or perhaps in the wings.
