EXCLUSIVE: Travis Barker: "I'm Just Thankful to Be Alive"
Wednesday October 8, 2008
![]() Tiffany Rose/Getty Images In the new issue of Us Weekly (on newsstands now), Travis Barker opens up for the first time since his tragic September 19 Learjet crash that killed four. He and DJ AM - the only survivors of the crash - suffered second and third degree burns on their hands and lower body. "I hate planes," the ex-Blink 182 drummer, 32, tells Us exclusively. "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." He spoke to Us on Oct. 6 from the Grossman Burn Center in Los Angeles, where he is now being treated. (He said he was too afraid to fly cross-country from Georgia - where he initially recovered in a burn unit - so he arranged to travel by bus with his father and ex-wife Shanna Moakler.) How are you doing? After over 25 years as a vegetarian, you had to start eating meat again. Why? How much longer will you be in the hospital?
