all my 43 years I have always been intrigued by Lynyrd Skynyrd, Ronnie Van Zant Gary Rossington and the rest of the bunch.. thanks for this video I wish y'all could have spoke a little bit longer and told us a little bit more information about the crash.. but thanks anyway... Ronnie Van Zant was the best singer songwriter that God has ever slug guts into.. it ain't fair he's gone..... God bless the original Lynyrd Skynyrd Band...

I know you guys did the best you could. We lost the great Lynyrd Skynyrd band that day. For some reason this ban haunts me every night in a great way. I love you mr. Ronnie Van Zant thank you for all the beautiful music brother. Can't wait to meet you in the next lifetime

I can tell you that on October 21 the day after the crash there wasn't a dry eye in my entire school including teachers. I was in 8th grade. Forever remembered!!!

God bless Lynyrd Skynyrd they went through a Hell on Earth that we can never imagine

The next time I travel to MS I am definitely going to visit the memorial on Easley Road.

Dang I was 9 yrs old when this happened. My cousins were all crying. Sad Day!!

The world would be a better place if they were still here.

Never get in a plane that you have to check the fuel tank with a stick, or the pilots are confirmed alcoholics, or another band rejected buying the plane because it was a junkyard special. R.I.P to all that died that day---- Your music lives on forever.

Loved this band so sad ...

I’m building a guitar from wood from the Hell House original Dock, and foundation from Hell House, and incorporating metal from the plane. Once it’s complete we will loan it out to touring musicians so those timber’s will continue to sing and vibrate. LLLS. Long Live Lynyrd Skynyrd.. if anybody knows Gary Rossington I’d love for him to sign it when complete, or donate a pick, or something I can incorporate into it. Tell him to hit me up...

Oh my gosh! I remember this day so well,, I was around 12 or so,, my Mom asked my brother and I if we knew who the lynard skynrd band was, we were yeah we know who they are and listened to their songs a lot,,she said well,I just saw on the news where their plane crashed. I am 57 now and still love their music. And can anybody tell me why some of these people on here are making such rude comments. So sad.

God bless you men that came to their rescue.

The reason so many survived was because there was no gas to start a fire

darn good video

I was a senior in high school in Cleveland Tennessee when it happened thier next show after Baton Rouge was Chattanooga Tennessee 30 miles down the road from me.

The music world has lost many tremendously talented artists to aviation crashes. The band members of Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Stevie Ray Vaughn, and Randy Rhodes are the ones that I remember the most. Just really senseless and terrible. God bless each and every of them.

Thank goodness for these guys who saved so many live I wish the other 6 would have lived I dreamed about this last night and I see this wow

Gentlemen - who did you contact to have full access to the site? Thank you!

I remember that night well. The rock station I was listening to at the time was 104 WKIR ( I think that was the call letters anyway) in Jackson, Tennessee. They came on about 9pm and said that LS had crashed in south Mississippi. Then they played LS songs.

You guys are sorta heros weather you wanna be or not. Horrific circumstances and NO help of any kind, they couldve been there for many hours

Thank you guys you do what you do u don't care who u get it done that's what counts,ditto I was amazed myself watching this intranet stuff to learn that there was so many survivors,but no fuel is the reason I'm not big on statistics but I discovery type shows and history channel cause I was not into history but its now all I watch,but fire is the reason for death in most airplane crashes,because there's so much and its more flammable then auto gas.thanks guys job well done...I had a neighbor who was battalion chief and he help save this dumb kid from a nite of drinking,so I'm forever thankful,and he was a good boss too...

Is it possible to go to the actual site of the crash?

is there move of this video?

"but don't worry i believe Leonard made it out" 😂 no, i believe Leonard was back in Jacksonville selling real estate.

"i bleev Leonard made it out" ..... _if only_

1:00👍🏼😂👍🏼

That farmer could make bank if he did it right

Who exactly gave you permission to go here?

Lol lynard made it out

cant ya smell that smell

Im not trying to make a joke out of this awful unfortunate event. Nor do I believe in anything supernatural. But did anyone notice at the end of the video, at about 2:16 on the counter, there appears to be a man. And he has long bushy hair like the band members did when they were young. And he is white as a sheet & he appears quite ghostly. Its kinda creepy. And this ghostly -type man just appears to be gawking at something. Super weird.

The pilots were part of the band

Why must u show this? U guys are just pissed bc u weren’t in the crash! Dummies. U guys are sick....I bet u didn’t even know them.

They should have given those hippies proper southern barber shop haircuts while they were in the hospital.

I wish I could have saw Ronnie lying there dead.

Had two concert tickets and a t- shirt for the upcoming show in Little Rock I won on a radio station call in contest for KAAY radio in Little Rock, home of Beaker Street back in the 60's and 70's. I was listening to the station when they broke in programming to anounce the crash and Little Rock would be the concert that never was. RIP to all in the crash and Gary Rossington and family.
