The Man From Tallahassee - S3-E13
Continuity mistake: In episode 3-13: When Jack is asking for his friends to be released, Ben says ok and Jack walks off. The camera cuts to the women, then back to Ben, and Jack is by him again having walked off a few seconds earlier.
Left Behind - S3-E15
Character mistake: Kate's car is shown being towed, because, according to the tow-truck driver, "your fan belt is shot" The car in the scene is a 1988 to 1994 Buick Regal 2dr, which came with 2 engine options, a 3.1L and a 3.8l v6, both transversal engines. So, there could not be a "fan belt" on that car, as the pair of radiator fans on it were electrical. In any case, "your drive belt is shot" would have been the correct term to use, to describe the specific belt failure on that car. (00:02:19)
Left Behind - S3-E15
Continuity mistake: When Kate is riding in the tow truck, the amber hazard lights are flashing. As we see it pull into the garage, there is one shot from ground level where these lights are not flashing. (00:02:50)
Left Behind - S3-E15
Continuity mistake: In the diner, the size and shape of the mess on the waitress changes between shots. (00:26:50)
Left Behind - S3-E15
Continuity mistake: When Kate and Juliette land in the mud, they land face first. When the camera changes to above, they're covered in mud all over, including their back. (00:30:10)
Left Behind - S3-E15
Continuity mistake: The mud on Kate's face when she lands in the mud patch changes from when she lands to when she lifts her head up. (00:30:20)
Left Behind - S3-E15
Continuity mistake: When Kate wakes Jack up, she says everyone left because of her. When she does, his arm goes from across her belly to much higher depending on the shot. (00:36:00)
Continuity mistake: Episode 3-16, "One of Us". When Juliette and Ben are talking towards the end, Ben is first seen with his hands folded (fingers interlocking) in front of him. Just after Juliette says "I'll admit to it, tell her it was the only way to gain her trust", Ben's hands are in the same position, but are not folded, his right hand is just lying on top of his left. Cut to a close-up of Ben, and his hands are once again folded.
Continuity mistake: When camping, Charlie walks over to Desmond, who is holding a photo of him and Penny. In the first shot, he is holding it by the sides of the photo, but when the shot changes to a different angle, he is now holding it at the bottom of the photo with both hands. (00:17:50)
Continuity mistake: Episode 3-17: Juliet is shown crawling out of the sub. You see a side street where she is crawling over an uneven area to a dock about four feet away from her. When the shot pulls back, the dock is nowhere near her - she was crawling on a different dock.
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.
