That way, when he goes over the cliff edge with the warg they think that he just might possibly actually be dead.
I remember when I saw the films for the first time, although I enjoyed the spectacle of the battles, there was no sense of real danger for Aragorn, as I knew he survived.

I don't think anyone, even the uninitiated, seriously believed Aragorn died at that moment.
