What is the truth about Artimus Pyle?? Did he lie in his interviews? A key detail of the Lynyrd Skynyrd Plane Crash that's been debated by Skynyrd fans everywhere: Was Drummer Artimus Pyle Shot or NOT by the farmer, Johnny Mote, when he and two others walked away from the plane crash to get help, or not? In my last video where I deep dived (no pun intended) into the Lynyrd Skynyrd Plane Crash, I mentioned that Artimus was shot. In today's episode, we dig even deeper into the local newspapers and interviews that followed immediately after the crash, to put all the pieces together and try to answer the famous question: Was Artimus Pyle Shot or Not.
