In an interview with
Us Weekly, Travis Barker (shown above just hours before the accident) opened up about surviving the Sept. 19 plane crash that killed four, including one of his good friends. Following his release from a Georgia hospital last week, Barker is being treated at a Los Angeles burn center.
"I hate planes," Barker told
Us Weekly. "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."
"I am doing the best I can possibly be," he said. "I’m so anxious to get out of here. I’ve just been in surgery after surgery. I have third-degree burns basically from my feet up to my waist and both hands. One of my hands has second-degree burns and one has third-degree burns."
"I’m trying to have a quick recovery and play the drums again and be able to hold my kids again."

Travis Barker barker is now speaking out about the horrible plane crash that he was involved in. As we all know, he was burned severely.
When asked about the crash itself he said:
I hate planes. 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.
When asked about his injuries, he said:
I am doing the best I can possibly be. I'm so anxious to get out of here. …I've just been in surgery after surgery. I have third degree burns basically from my feet up to my waist and both hands. One of my hands was second degree burns and one was third degree burns. I'm trying to have a quick recovery and play the drums again and be able to hold my kids again. [Barker has two children, Landon, 5, and Alabama, 2, with Shanna Moakler.] I'm going nuts not being able to see them and spend time with them!
When asked about his recovery process, he said:
I need protein from food rather than just protein supplements. I changed my diet. I would do anything I possibly could if they said like, 'There's a possibility you might heal faster if you do eat meat or just change your eating habits.' So I did. I don't regret it at all, I feel so much better.
Im glad he is doing better and I hope he gets over his fear of planes. I love Travis, he seems like a really nice guys.

Travis Barker and Adam "DJ AM" Goldstein were both in a horrible plane crash last night. Both guys are in very critical condition with extensive burns. Travis was burned from the waist down and is expected to survive. DJ AM's face was severely burned and he is currently being tended to. In this plane crash, there were four fatalities(two passengers and two crew members.)
The National Transportation Safety Board said the following:
Right now it's not clear what happened, but the plane was taking off from a private airport in South Carolina when all of a sudden it burst into flames.
These two guys are in my prayers. I know this has to be hard on their families.

The Game has a new album coming out on August 26. The cd is called L.A.X, it’s his third album. There have already been three singles from this album(Game’s Plan featuring Keyshia Cole, Dope Boys featuring Travis Barker, and My Life featuring Lil Wayne.) I won’t be buying this cd, I don’t really care for The Game, I remember what he said about gay people(we won’t revisit that.)
