$$anonymous$$; first of all i should say java script will be deleted from unity soon so try to switch to csharp;

to check tags do like t$$anonymous$$s : if (col.CompareTag("Hurt2"))

t$$anonymous$$s way is faster;

in update u created an Instantiate when id die t$$anonymous$$s part will be called many times as the Die will be true and update calls many times per sec and the Instantiate is a huge performance cost , so make sure to force it to be done only once; (u can make another bool to control it );

another idea u dont need to put health check in update ; thats a big cost to check every frame for it ; u can put the check inside a function and only call the function to check when the trigger is happening;

i dont see any other problems in your script; good luck ;
