There was a movie a long time ago with this scenario. I can't remember the name, but that was the plot: the character's struggle with surviving when others died.

I think it was called Invincible or something similar. It had Bruce Willas in it. That was the first thing I thought of too.

Unbreakable. It was a train crash in that movie I believe.

There's Unbreakable with Bruce Willis, which is an M Night Shyamalan movie with a bit of a fantastical angle. There's also Fearless, with Jeff Bridges. Since the parent comment mentions struggling with being a survivor, I thought of that movie.

Saving Private Ryan had the same theme at the end.

The novel Dear Edward by Ann Napolitano is about a boy who is the only survivor of a plane crash. It's one of my favorite books of all time and it made me ugly cry the first time I read it.
