Travis Barker has flown on an airplane for the first time since surviving a deadly 2008 crash.
, Barker said surviving the accident and the long recovery that followed inspired him to get clean.
"People are always like, ‘Did you go to rehab?'" said Barker, who had developed such a high opioid tolerance that he'd sometimes wake up during surgery."And I [say], 'No, I was in a plane crash.' That was my rehab. Lose three of your friends and almost die? That was my wake-up call. If I wasn’t in a crash, I would have probably never quit."
"There’s a million things that could happen to me," the drummer added."I could die riding my skateboard. I could get in a car accident. I could get shot. Anything could happen. I could have a brain aneurysm and die. So why should I still be afraid of airplanes?" Of flying again, he told the magazine,"I have to ... I want to make the choice to try and overcome it."
