[@nickparadies350]

He talks about it in his book it’s a fucking wild story. Dude was tough as nails to be able to make it through.

[@Toosii2times]

@Shutbyotch AM’s story is interesting (not everybody can say they survived a plane crash) but nowhere near Travis’ experience. AM spent like a week in the hospital whereas Travis was in the burn ward for 6 long ass fuckin weeks (with pain killers having minimal effect) and he was offering his friends a million dollars to come kill him Plus Travis had the irrational fear of flying and the premonition that he would for sure die in a plane crash, plus his daughter BEGGED him not to go on that flight, plus he asked his best friend to go and thus feels immense survivors guilt over his death. Pity AM had to relapse and the fact that it was documented on a reality show about helping people get clean is beyond cruelly ironic, but Travis lived an actual nightmare.

[@dougbrown7413]

My son was lit on fire when was in junior high. Burnt from chest down to his knees. Travis’ description made me think of how my son (28 now) describes the whole experience and the recovery. He has graphs off his back too. The day all that happened will be etched in my mind forever. He doesn’t like to talk about it. There’s such a victim mentality in the world today, he doesn’t want to contribute to it, but when I hear someone else who’s been through it, there’s so many similarities. It brings back a lot of feelings for me, just as a parent.

I like the way your son thinks though, although it’s good to talk about things that may have caused some trauma to a friend or family etc. it’s just good to have someone you can open up to instead of hold it all in, but that being said we do live in a different world now, everyone is a victim and it’s really so ridiculous now a days, half the people who are a “victim of something” are really so full of themselves and many have no grasp on reality now a days. None of them care to realize that we ALL go through shit they really want to sit back and complain about things that have or haven’t happened all day long.. Your son and I are the same age btw.

I have had third degree burns and they only hurt for a hot minute because the pain immediately stopped as soon as the nerves burned away. And that's when the real danger starts because I didn't think I was burned that bad because I wasn't in pain, so I didn't go the hospital right away. BIG MISTAKE as infection immediately set in, and then when the nerves started growing back the pain was excruciating. The worst memory of my life now is being burned and the long healing process afterwards that takes literally YEARS.

In my mind this is still how “young people” talk but in reality it is now how middle aged people talk. 🤯

[@shittymcrvids3119]

well, how do young people talk in comparison? this seems pretty standard to me.

[@MattMcConaha]

@@shittymcrvids3119 young people don't talk

[@richardpanini971]

Truest shit ever

[@thof8287]

That's because life is short. You realize there aren't many years between young and middle aged.

[@princevegeta9763]

@@shittymcrvids3119 we don't talk like that at all I can tell you that much Ahahaha.

This man is truly blessed & strong af! His story is incredible

[@Kari2025]

He’s such a chill, non-Hollywood dude, what the fuck is he doing with a Kardashian?

[@MrNMrsSparkleMaricle]

Being in pain takes on a whole new meaning after listening to this... literally I felt my whole body cringe

[@yzwme586]

I can't even imagine what he's been through. I am surprised he lived through that but I'm glad he's OK. Hearing about the scrapping made my body feel extremely queasy

[@RocMerc]

This dude is still amazing and hes almost 50. Rock on man

[@Kat-wj8ts]

Travis is just so sweet he is so humble and thats why I like him so much as a performer and he doesnt get all that fake stuff done to his face and body. Through all he has been through he is greatful for what he has and all that pain he endured. He is so genuine looking it makes him look even more handsome. He doesnt have an snobby air about him either and seems to be just a nice person down to earth. Its such a miracle he is here to tell his story and he seems to be happy with what he was born with and not getting all that fake stuff on himself to fit in like other people. He is just a beautiful soul.✌✌🙏❤

[@benharris144]

He kinda looks like that Ninja dude if he had a rough childhood.

Ben Harris except Travis Barker is actually cool lol

Ben Harris yup, I can totally c it

[@frankvento9356]

I actually think he has one of the best head pieces

[@chepachem8351]

Such a crazy incident to go through and he talks about it so calmly

[@yourthebest7942]

Can’t imagine the trauma this poor man has running through his head on a daily basis. He seems like he is in a good place though. God Bless.

[@samporter7018]

I've gotten my first tattoos already and I can confirm the falling asleep part it feels very therapeutic

[@aubreytheking4974]

You are a hero Travis! You literally have experienced so much! I feel how deep your heart is!

[@evanchaika3533]

His voice is so soothing

[@craigcourtney4209]

As a blink 182 fan, and his drumming style is a show in itself , His body art is impressive , his tattoo artists are impressive also , glad that everything that has happened in his life he has come through it all , I feel he has risen above just being a band member of blink , because of his look and playing style

[@jimjamthebananaman1]

I don’t think he’s ever been known as the blink drummer though. Obviously after his departure from the aquabats and he joined blink he wasn’t long playing drums in the transplants, boxcar racer and then all his other collab stuff with rappers etc. He has the most impressive CV out of him, Tom Delonge and Mark Hoppus which is ironic considering blink is what made travis famous

[@dingdongpoopoo7605]

He's so surprisingly soft-spoken

[@twerkingtwinkies2335]

First drummer i idolized as a kid. Love his style. I ran my finger through my glass torch flame one time and that hurt for months. Hearing Travis' story is daunting 😧😧😵😵🤯🤯

[@dustinr26]

Dudes been through some serious stuff. Love he had a Dag Nasty tattoo as his first. Great band back in the day

[@nikomacias3008]

Ian Johnson hahaha 😂 lololol

[@rumham7631]

dude thank God someone was there to tell him to stop drop and roll.. may have saved his life
