Travis Barker is “thankful to be alive” after the plane crash in Columbia, South Carolina, last month that left him and DJ AM severely burned and killed four others. The former Blink-182 drummer opens up about the accident in the new issue of US Weekly, reports The Associated Press.
“I hate planes,” Barker said in an interview with the magazine. “My biggest fear ever is to be involved in a plane crash, so when that happened … well, I’m just thankful to be alive! I’m just grateful to be here at all.”
Barker was released from a Georgia burn center last week and is now getting treatment at a Los Angeles-area hospital. Just days before, DJ AM had been released from the hospital and is now home recovering. The crash killed Barker’s assistant, Chris Baker, and his bodyguard, Charles Still, as well as the plane’s two crew members.
