Travis Barker’s Crash Survival Story | Music News

from Music News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Travis Barker spills the raw, emotional truth behind surviving a fiery plane crash in 2008 that killed four others—including two close friends—and left him with 65% of his body burned. Through 27 surgeries and deep bouts of survivor’s guilt, he credits his PTSD therapist for guiding him toward healing by cutting out negativity and focusing on his kids. The tragedy also claimed DJ AM’s life a year later from an overdose. Now, a new documentary explores Barker’s journey, featuring candid interviews with Questlove, Taylor Hawkins, Tommy Lee, and his Blink-182 bandmates. More of his powerful conversation with Chris Connelly airs Thursday on Good Morning America. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
