Yes, during the Boscastle flood of 1963, several people were trapped in the village as the river levels rose rapidly due to heavy rainfall. Emergency services were deployed to rescue individuals stranded in their homes and vehicles. Fortunately, there were no fatalities reported, but the event highlighted the dangers of flash flooding and led to increased awareness and improvements in flood management.
It certainly was. Around 10 times as many people were rescued as was originally hoped for.
712 people were saved on Carpathia and 1,496 people died on Titanic.
There were about 335,000 British troops, and about 50,000 French troops rescued at Dunkirk. Do you want that in alphabetical order, or by rank and unit? Thousands died in the fighting that ended with the withdrawal at Dunkirk.

Unbelievably no one died in the 2004 floods!
No, as far as I am aware, you cannot.
34 people died http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boscastle_flood_of_2004
Around 150 people were rescued during the Boscastle flood of 2004, including those airlifted to safety by helicopters. Fortunately, there were no fatalities despite the scale of the flooding.
Well, they thought it was absolutely fantastic. The best thing since sliced bread
they put sand bags in front of their door to stop the water coming in or the helicopter would come and take them
Luckily nobody died in the Boscastle flood 1963 and several people were injured!
