Travis Barker reveals that he offered $1 million dollars to kill him following his plane crash in 2008.

According to The Guardian, the 38-year-old musician was one of the passengers of a Learjet that crashed while taking off from Columbia Metropolitan Airport in South Carolina. Four of the six passengers aboard died, while Barker and DJ AM a.k.a Adam Goldstein, survived but with severe burns. Goldstein died a little under a year later from a drug overdose which was revealed to be a combination of cocaine and drugs prescribed to him after the accident.

Barker recorver over a four-month period, undergoing surgery 27 times, after suffering burns across 65% of his body.

In an interview with ABC News, the Blink-182 drummer revealed that he had suffered from depression and offered his friends $1 million to take his life.

"I would call friends of mine and go, 'You know, I'll deposit a million dollars into whoever's bank account.' [Hospital staff] had to take my phone out of my room" he said.

Barker explained that he had not been on a plane since the accident, but that if his children wanted to fly, he would do so. When travelling to shows abroad, he sails on the Queen Mary II.

Barker is currently recording material with Blink-182 with their new member Matt Skiba after their very public split with the group's founding member, frontman and guitarist Tom Delonge.

"Matt's killing it," Barker told NME. "He's fun to play with and write with. We're just getting started but I think we've got like four or five songs right now that I'm really, really happy with. There's a song called 'Punk Rock Cliché' which I love the most right now. It's about friends of ours and their relationships."
