Continuity mistake: Episode 3-3: When the stick falls, John isn't wearing a backpack. But when he picks it up, he is suddenly wearing one. (00:02:40)
Continuity mistake: When John loses his voice, he uses a pad to communicate with Charlie. He writes "I need you to stand guard" in one scene and later shows the same message to Charlie. In the second scene, although it is supposed to be the same message, guard is misspelled "gaurd."
Continuity mistake: After picking up Eddy the hitchhiker, John and his passenger can be seen driving through a compound. As they drive through the compound, a passenger can be seen in John's pick-up truck. The scene just before they arrive at the sweat lodge, there is no passenger. Once they arrive at the sweat lodge, a passenger exits the pick-up truck. (00:16:25)
Continuity mistake: When John wakes up, the right-hand side of his head is covered in blood, both fresh and dried. When he's looking at Ecko's stick, his head has no blood on it. Fresh or dried. (00:02:40)
Chosen answer: None of the main characters died in the plane crash. Many died on the island after the crash (Jack, Charlie, Sun, Jin, Daniel, Juliet, others), some lived on the island for an apparently long time after the crash (Hurley, Ben, Bernard, Rose) but some lived lives off the island after the crash (Sawyer, Kate, Claire, Miles, Aplert, and Lapidus). Remember that Christian tells Jack that "time has no meaning here," (in Purgatory). When everyone meets at the church, they are at the end of their lives however long that may have been and will now "move on" together. They look like they did on the island because that is the way they best remember each other.

That has to be the clearest explanation of the ending I've ever read.
