Description
Tomorrow on August 8, 1975 - 50 years of new life for Hank Williams Jr.
Half a century ago, Hank Jr. survived a terrifying 500-foot fall off Ajax Mountain in Montana. The accident left him with severe skull and facial fractures and required 17 surgeries to repair the damage.
From that pain and struggle, a new Hank was born.
He grew the beard, put on the sunglasses and cowboy hat not just to hide the scars but to show the world he was back. Stronger. Wiser. Unshaken.
No longer living in the shadow of his legendary father, Hank Jr. forged a sound and style all his own.
Fifty years later, we honor a man who did not just survive. He rose, he roared, and redefined what it means to be country.
Here is to 50 years of strength, soul, and the unstoppable spirit of Bocephus.
