Did Forgiveness Sink with the Titanic?

I wonder if the those who should get to dicide if forgiveness should be issued to those deemed responsible for the sinking of the Titanic sunk along with the ship? In all honesty the sinking of the Titanic was a acident. Although if I was actually there hanging on to a peice of drift wood, feeling my body grow number by the second, life escaping from my breath, in that moment I would find it hard to forgive anybody or anything. We all like to think that if placed in this situation we could look past the fact that we were dieing and forgive eachother and realize it was a acident. In all honesty though there comes a time when we realize out own self preservation, and find it hard to forgive or to die in someone elses place. I would like to think that I could forgive the many people for all the terrible mistakes that happend continuesly, but in the moment when I am in suvere agony using my last breath, I would most likley not be able to. Looking back if I was lucky enough to survive I would also like to think I could forgvie them for all my friends and or family that lost their lives that day. I hope to never have to be in a situation equivilent to this and be forced to answer an ultimate question of forgiveness.
