    Barker is crazy talented and the stuff that he and AM are (were) doing was going to be a huge hit around colleges campuses.

    Just a sad story all around.

    Never a huge blink fan, but I watched a few episodes of his T.V. Show, "Meet the Barkers" and he seemed like a really nice person. Hope all goes well for him.

    Full recovery expected:

    And according to federal officials, TMZ says, the crew reported hearing a tire blow and tried to abort takeoff.

    Here are some pictures. The fact anyone walked away from this is stunning to me.

    A witness said it looked like a fireball threw the two from the plane. I'm guessing that's the only reason they survived.

    What's also weird is that the burns are the only injuries. No broken bones or anything like that.
