OlderTravis Barker, DJ AM Injured in Fatal Plane Crash
Former Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker and Adam Goldstein, aka DJ AM, were injured in a plane crash that killed four people (3 males, 1 female) and critically injured two, NBC News reports.
Both Travis and DJ AM were in critical condition as of Saturday morning and transported to a burn center in Augusta, Georgia.
The FAA said the plane carrying six people was departing from South Carolina’s Columbia Metropolitan Airport headed to Van Nuys, Calif., when an air traffic controller reported seeing sparks. The plane went off the runway and crashed on a nearby road.
Travis performed Friday night at an event with Perry Farrel, Gavin DeGraw, and DJ AM. Earlier this month, Travis and DJ AM were the house band at the MTV Video Music Awards.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Travis, DJ AM, their friends and family.
UPDATE: The deceased are Sarah Lemmon (pilot), James Bland (co-pilot), Chris Baker (Travis’ assistant) and Charles Still (Travis’ bodyguard). Our deepest condolences and sympathies to all of their families and friends.

I hope they pull through.

OMG.
aww, that is soo sad. i literally got shivers reading this.
i love travis and i really hope he is okay. my prayers go out to their families and everyone else who died in that crash. rip

dlisted has way better updates on this story. i guess AM’s face has been burned and is being worked on and Travis was burned from the waist down. I doubt either of these two are going to die. It’s two bad the people who lost their lives did. As someone said, they shouldn’t have been all about flying private and playing big pimpin’.. those smaller planes/jets crash more often is right. Plus it’s very wasteful in a time when people should be more considerate towards the environment.
i live about an hour away its all over the news here.
They was the pilot co-pilot Barkers assistant and security guard Travis and adam on board. The jet went off the runway fell onto a highway was in flames witnesses say the only movement they saw was tarvis and adam running around trying to extinguish themselves. The witnesses attempted to get to the plane but the flames pushed them back Travis and Adam are in Agusta GA the closest burn unit.
My prayers go out to Trav and Adam. I hope they pull through this, God Bless them and their families.
This is wretched, horrible news. I cannot begin to imagine how excruciatingly painful it would be to almost die from jet fuel flames, and the mental and emotional pain of seeing others die this way, and then having to live with a forever deeply scarred body and face. DJ AM got his FACE burned! I hope these guys will survive and heal, there’s a 50/50 chance that critically injured 3rd degree burn victims make it after such a terrible accident. It’s going to be a hard next few weeks for these two men, and even with the strongest morphines on the planet, they won’t be able to escape all the pain.
My heart goes out to them both, and to the families of those who died. So, so sad!! What a shocking bit of morning celebrity news.
god i just saw this on cnn :(
god i just saw this on cnn :(
Do were think the will survive or not?
omg idk what to do
Do were think the will survive or not?
omg idk what to do
its very shocking that someone would post a negative comment on people expressing their sympathy for injured/dead people…to anyone who is sooo concerned about the plight of those in third world countries why dont you go and help them? or is it easier to pass judgement on us?
“the road to life is rocky and you may stumble too, while you point your finger someone else is judging you”
my heart goes out to all of those involved in this tragedy……
