Generally asphyxiation due to the smoke and gasses. But if that's not the case, I believe cardiac arrest sets in and their heart stops.

Does the heart stop due to asphyxiation / chock or due to something else?

Probably from Shock. Shock can be extremely dangerous and relatively easy to set in.

I'm not too sure in this case. It may be the stress and fear combined with the immense pain that overworks the heart until it ends up out of sync, then it starts to falter before stopping all together. I'm no medical student, so this may be wrong.
