Multiple people fall to their death when the ship capsizes. Also, later in the film, three other people lose their grip or trip and fall.

All the passengers that didn't fall to their death and refused to follow Reverend Scott's little group to the engine room have drowned. At the end of the film the six survivors learn that the other group going towards the bow did drown, too.
