Hank Williams Jr spent most of the early days of his career living in the shadow of his legendary father. He felt a tremendous amount of pressure to imitate his father's signature sound, but he wanted to pave out his own path and not have to be constantly compared to his dad. It took quite a bit of struggle and even an almost fatal accident to set him on the road that would eventually allow him to express his own boldly unique musical vision. By fusing traditional country elements with southern rock and just a dash of blues, Williams Jr. successfully crafted his own original sound that eventually resulted in him receiving recognition for a staggering 10 number-one singles, 30 gold records, and 6 platinum ones. But even though he finally found his voice, he almost lost it in 1975, when he slipped and fell while hiking and tumbled 500 feet to the ground, sustaining serious head injuries in the process. He had to have numerous surgeries, and it took him two years to recover, but eventually, he reemerged and went on to release dozens of albums – many of which rose to the top of the charts. Join Facts Verse as we take a look back on this horrific incident and how it nearly put an end to Hank Williams Jr.'s career.
