Plane-crash survivor Travis Barker was discharged from the Joseph M. Still Burn Center in Georgia today well ahead of the two-week mark given by Jermaine Dupri on Friday. DJ AM, who also escaped the crash with Travis, was released Friday. People reports:
“Travis is in good condition and was discharged this morning,” Burn Center spokesperson Beth Frits told PEOPLE Monday. “He has left Augusta.”
Travis was last seen paddling down Interstate 95 in a canoe. Have you ever seen one of those burst into flames? I rest my case.

In related news, this weekend I got an emergency phone call and left a sausage on the grill until it got completely charred. Nobody wanted to eat it. Welcome to your new life, Travis.

#1, unfortunately, you will be forever stuck in your life.
Ted from LA | September 29, 2008 at 1:53 pm
oh man…he made it :(
That sucks for the history of music. Everything he touches sucks.
Vince Lombardi | September 29, 2008 at 1:56 pm
On the upside, we will be spared the view of him drumming shirtless from here on out.
Cindy | September 29, 2008 at 1:56 pm
#1 – you’re wrong. Just check out #3, trying to earn his turn sucking the Barker charrocock. As I’m sure he’s heard many times already, “girls, this is how you do it.”
mamadough | September 29, 2008 at 1:56 pm
travis be nimble!
travis be quick!
oh shit, travis fell on the candle stick!
HorribleJudgment | September 29, 2008 at 2:03 pm
Good for him, I’m glad he’s doing better. :)
If he’s going to use a canoe from now on, however, he should know that there’s a risk of drowning. But if he’s going to insist upon paddling it around busy interstates, he should know that there’s a risk of being…you know…smashed into with a car.
Welldone | September 29, 2008 at 2:03 pm
Where is the celebration BBQ being held?
Sam | September 29, 2008 at 2:06 pm
He announced he’s starting a new band with Charo as the lead singer.

“Don’t worry, Travis, in a few months you’ll be back burning up the skins again!!! … Oh, hey, sorry man. My bad.”
Medications | September 29, 2008 at 2:13 pm
#5, he was burned from the waist-down only, so I doubt it. If anything he’ll drum shirtless even more to show off his good half
Erica | September 29, 2008 at 2:16 pm
I like my steaks rawwww…I use charrrrcoal….I hold and BBQ and realllyyy roast ‘em up goooodddd. Would you like to come Travis?
Also, when did I become dead inside?
Erik | September 29, 2008 at 2:18 pm
While in the hospital he shitted 5 bags of charcoal briquettes so they’re hooked up for BBQs for quite a while.
Reporter | September 29, 2008 at 2:20 pm
Like most of his fans, and fans of Blink-182, Travis spent a portion of his life as an total flamer.
Richard McBeef | September 29, 2008 at 2:22 pm
@13
When did you become dead inside? – Not sure
When did you become not funny? – about a quarter past two today.
jesus | September 29, 2008 at 2:25 pm
i get the impression he isn’t very popular
FRIST!!! | September 29, 2008 at 2:36 pm
Wow, none of you are funny today. I can’t even stand this douche, or the other one for that matter, but that shit’s just wrong. I hope you all get drunk at a kegger and fall into the bonfire, and then you will know what it’s like to be a woman and get nothing but spam emails telling me I have erectile dysfunction and my penis is too small.
I’m telling you…IT’S HUGE!!
Sandy | September 29, 2008 at 2:45 pm
Their next album will be covers of Smokey Robinson songs.
Jim | September 29, 2008 at 2:47 pm
No, I think they’re doing a combo album with the Black Eyed Penis.
James | September 29, 2008 at 2:52 pm
Nice, make fun of a guy that almost died, witnessed 4 of his friends die and is now scarred both physically and emotionally for the rest of his life. And wait love him or hate him, he’s accomplished more then any of you will in your entire lives. Grow up you hacks.
Erica | September 29, 2008 at 3:06 pm
@16 come to my BBQ! You and Travis can bond over some Black Eyed Penis songs. The charrrr-coal is really lighting up good.
Richard McBeef | September 29, 2008 at 3:14 pm
@22 – let me clarify for you.
sick twisted humor – good
bad humor – bad
Black eyed penis? For fuck’s sake. L A M E
Erica | September 29, 2008 at 3:37 pm
@23 awww now you’re making fun of #20 too! It was his joke first and everyone thought he was hilarious. Just cuz it’s mine you don’t like it? What’s you’re vendetta, lol. Is your penis burned? lol.
havoc | September 29, 2008 at 3:40 pm
I don’t give a shit one way or the other. But I don’t wish on any man for his dick to turn into a pork rind….
gah….

Beer Baron | September 29, 2008 at 4:33 pm
Didn’t you hear? 3rd degree skin burns are the new tattoos. Everyone will be clamoring to get one!
Beer Baron | September 29, 2008 at 4:35 pm
Didn’t you hear? 3rd degree skin burns are the Fall Season’s hottest accessory! Everyone will be clamoring to get one! He’s already ahead of the hip curve.
Beer Baron | September 29, 2008 at 4:37 pm
I just love almost repeating myself on a joke that wasn’t as funny written as it was out loud….I wish I was a burn victim…
douche | September 29, 2008 at 4:51 pm
He let his friends burn alive. What a charred douche.
Shit For Brains | September 29, 2008 at 5:33 pm
Using a lear jet for only 5 people is a massive waste of gas. Next time fly commercial plz.
tool | September 29, 2008 at 5:49 pm
what a shitty drummer. glad he’s ok so he can continue to make awful music.
Erica | September 29, 2008 at 5:57 pm
@28 if the jokes not funny, don’t tell it. And you don’t want to be like Travis. Nowadays he has to open up for Charo.
swhing | September 29, 2008 at 6:47 pm
I hope he gets into a car crash and the car blows up.
lidsay | September 29, 2008 at 8:37 pm
I’m so happy for him. Young people don’t deserve to die, no matter if they’re talented or not. They’ve got their life ahead of them. Anyways, all the hot cougars on === Agelessdate.com === are crazy about him!!! the place where hot cougars and sexy young men;and handsome old folks with sensual chicks meet and mingle! You may wanna check it out!LOL
gerard Vandenberg | September 29, 2008 at 11:29 pm
So this wasn’t SERIOUS, folks.
WHAT CELEBS DO FOR ATTENTION IS AMAAAAZING!!
Grunion | September 30, 2008 at 1:31 pm
Right now God is going “Just got out of the hospital? Fuck me. I knew I should have handled that one myself”
The Beer Baron | September 30, 2008 at 3:13 pm
@32-You misheard, he’s not opening up for Charo, he’s now a full scale Churro.
azzman | September 30, 2008 at 3:19 pm
haters. im glad he is home. speedy recovery dude. keep your skills tight..
this man can rock some serious rudiments.
I_call_bullshit | September 30, 2008 at 7:42 pm
Wow, going from “third degree burns” in a “doctor induced coma” to out in less than two weeks……I smell someone’s publicist working overtime. Working in an acute care hospital, most burn victims in “doctor induced comas” do not leave the hospitals for months on end, they usually end up with infections like pneumonia and sepsis, and anyone with a skin graft will not be leaving “in less than two weeks”. Godspeed to Travis and DJ AM, but what disgust for true burn victims and their families.
JrsyGrl | October 2, 2008 at 6:49 am
I’m with #39. I mean, I feel for both him and DJ AM for getting hurt, but I find it hard to believe that they both had 3rd degree burns and DJ AM was released within a few days and Barker was released in less than 2 weeks.
