KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Video shows high winds and rocky waters in the moments leading up to a boat crash near Branson, Missouri that claimed at least 17 lives.

Jennie Carr, a passenger on a different boat, was recording as two duck boats attempted to make it to shore on Table Rock Lake. Both boats appear to be rocked hard by waves.

 

Only one boat would make it to shore. The other capsized and sank, killing at least 17. 

Officials are asking anyone else with video of the incident to contact the Stone County Sheriff's Department to aid in the investigation.
