DJ AM (Adam Goldstein) was in a fatal plane crash last night and "was completely terrified and traumatized" from the experience. The medical staff said that he was lucky to be alive.

He was able to call his mom from the ambulance and tell her what happened. Oh my god, could you imagine getting that phone call, how terrifying.

"DJ AM suffered severe burns to his face. He is currently in a doctor-induced coma so he can "undergo skin grafts in an attempt to repair some of the extensive burn damage."

DJ AM's former fiancee, "Nicole Richie, 'is in shock, she wishes only the best for Adam and hopes he recovers from this, she's horribly upset about the people who died.'"

Joel Madden, Nicole's current partner and father of Harlow, is friends with Travis Barker, who was injured in the plane crash as well, feels terrible and hopes they recover.

Updated: Travis Barker and DJ AM in Plane Crash

Travis Barker and DJ AM were the only two survivors from a plane crash in Columbia, South Carolina. They are in critical condition.

Barker and Adam "DJ AM" Goldstein were leaving Columbia after playing a large outdoor concert Saturday night. According to CNN, "the Learjet 60 crashed on takeoff at the Columbia Metropolitan Airport at 11:53 p.m." It was headed to Van Nuys, California.

From CNN:

"They overran the end of runway 11. They impacted the antenna array and a number of lights at the end of the runway. They went through the perimeter fence and across the roadway here," said NTSB spokeswoman Debbie Hersman, briefing reporters on Saturday. "There was a significant post-crash fire."

William Owens told WIS-TV he was driving down Highway 302 when he said he saw a fireball go across the road.

"I didn't know what I had seen -- it was maybe 800 feet in front of me, but as I approached it closer though, I made out a fire. By then I was able to see the tail of the jet and I recognized it as a jet," Owens said.

Owens told the station he tried to get to the wreckage.

"It's in flames and the fuel is running across the road and I had to cross the fuel to get to the two guys that seemed to have been dumped on the highway," Owens said.

Owens told WIS-TV the two men were running around and pulling off clothing to put out the flames. He said he asked them if anyone else was on board the plane and they said four people were with them.

"We turned to the jet to try and see if there was anything we could do, but immediately, there was nothing anyone could do," Owens said.

The four other people on the plane were pilot Sarah Lemmon, 31, co-pilot James Bland, 52, Chris Baker, 29, and Charles Still, 25, all from California.

Travis Barker has been the subject of various rumors over the past couple of years regarding his alleged death. He and Goldstein are listed in critical condition with severe burns.

Travis Barker has two children.

Travis Barker Dead: The Hoax

Whit Honea — Fri, 16 Nov 2007 15:25:00 GMT

The word is everywhere, Travis Barker of the Transplants, +44, Blink 182 and "Meet the Barkers" fame was apparently found dead in his garage. Yet the internet holds no official statements or acknowledgments- either way.

While I feel that this is most likely a hoax, where are the statements from Barker? I understand that a celebrity can't go around and comment on every rumor that starts about them, but one that has this much fever should be acknowledged. It's like Paul McCartney all over again*. He shouldn't just ignore it and stay out of view. Who is he- Castro**?

In fact, while most sites tend to agree that this is not true, only one actually states it, that being the Travis Barker Wikipedia page. Sure, that's more official than... well, nothing. Anyone can add to a wiki.

So where is Barker? Is he going to let his fans know that he is okay or just let it escalate to the heights of unforgettable urban legend. If the latter is true there must be a CD or DVD tie-in coming. The press is fantastic.

UPDATED: It's not true!!

*Paul McCartney was rumored dead back in the day. The Beatles had some fun with it.

**Castro, the leader of Cuba has been rumored dead recently. Official statements came from Cuba that he was well, but they did not provide any proof that the ailing dictator still lived.

***Sorry, I bought a ton of these *'s because of the Bonds thing. I'm going to be rich!
