Maybe if you actually looked into the science a bit you'd stop saying such ignorant things.
Inbreeding doesn't "make you die". It reduces genetic diversity.
The two problems that can cause are reduced ability to fight infections and increased likelihood of existing genetic problems in the parents becoming dominant in the child.
The parents may not even suffer from the conditions themselves, but just carry them as recessive genes. Inbreeding doesn't create the genetic problem, just increases the chances of passing it on.
But "chance" is not "guarantee", and not all of the bad conditions you could inherit are fatal.
It's entirely possible that a child of such a union could be normally healthy. Continued generational incest, though, will pretty much ensure the bad genes become dominant at some point.
