Live Together, Die Alone, Part 2 - S2-E24
Continuity mistake: The woman from Desmond's photo is totally different the second time we see it, but Desmond and the background are exactly the same as before.

Revealing mistake: After Sawyer has been shot with the syringe thing (I'm not sure if Kate had been shot yet) Jack fires his gun five or six times into the jungle. The last few times he fires it there is no flash or any indication that the gun has been fired.

Continuity mistake: Right at the start of the final episode in season two, Sayid is walking with Jack and he is holding a torch in his right hand. The camera angle changes and the torch has jumped into his left hand.

Continuity mistake: In '?' when Locke put his map of the stations in the chute, it was not folded. However, when Sawyer finds it in this episode, it is folded.

Continuity mistake: When Ecko throws the belt at the wall, the position changes to when Charlie grabs it. (00:05:40)
Live Together, Die Alone, Part 2 - S2-E24
Continuity mistake: Penny's letter to Desmond changes as he reads it. The text stays the same, but the handwriting and position of the words on the page change between the two shots where you can see the letter from the front. Also, for the audience the letter is read aloud with Penny's voice. Interesting is the fact that there is one sentence omitted: "Sorry to be so dramatic, but these are dramatic times, are they not?" (You can read this sentence in both "versions" of the letter though).

Continuity mistake: As they are walking through the jungle, Sawyer goes to pick up a doll. He reaches down and nearly touches the doll. But in the next shot Kate grabs his arm, to stop him, before he even bends over. (00:18:00)
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.
