Last September he survived a tragic South Carolina plane crash that killed four people and seriously injured his friend Travis Barker.

A shocking photo of mega star Madonna has surfaced showing what appears to be a badly dehydrated and unconditioned body.
In the pictures her arms are skinny and her biceps appear as strange masses.
"When muscles look that way, it's often the result of very restrictive eating and dehydration," said a doctor and sports nutrition expert.
The singer was photographed in London last Sunday night after having dinner with boyfriend Jesus Luz.
Fans were shocked when they saw her bulging biceps and forearms on display in her short-sleeved top. Madonna has told reporters that she works out for two hours a day, six days a week.
The 50 year-old superstar is currently traveling with her "Sticky & Sweet world tour" that kicked of in Whales and sports a staff and entourage of over 250 people. _
Pop star Michael Jackson has died. He was 50 years old.
The singer was found unresponsive at his home in California Thursday afternoon. He was rushed to the UCLA medical center but could not be revived. A Los Angeles Fire Department source told reporters that Jackson was in full cardiac arrest when rescue units arrived on scene.
Aides told a doctor that Jackson collapsed after receiving a shot of the drug Demerol. His breathing grew weaker and weaker and suffered a heart attack. Police have opened an investigation into the arrest but stress they do not suspect criminal activity.
His mother, sister Janet Jackson, and other family members rushed to the hospital. This sad news comes the same day we learn that actress Farrah Fawcett has passed away. Michael was best known for his signature moon walk, thriller video and album, the smash hit song Billy Jean, massive plastic surgery, and his encounters with law enforcement for suspected child molestation at his now famous Neverland Ranch.
Jackson was planning to appear in a sold-out series of concerts in London next month that would have run until March. Promoters of the concerts had recently said that the singer had passed a physical examination to remove any concerns about his health.
Michael is survived by his three younger children, Prince Michael Jackson, Paris Michael Katherine Jackson, and Prince Michael Jackson II. _
Summer is here and school is out. That means the beginning of the summer movie blitz - starting with Apatow's "Year One."
Starring Jack Black and Michael Cera you can imagine the type of humor in store. Directed by "Ghost Buster's" Harold Ramis, this film explores what happens when two cavemen are kicked out of their tribe.
In year 1, Zed (Jack Black) and his caveman friend, Oh (Michael Cera), are two bungling cavemen just trying to survive. Zed is a bad hunter with no skills, and Oh is a plant gatherer. Zed is thrown out of his village after he eats the forbidden fruit, and Oh decides to travel with Zed on his heroic journey to the end of the earth.
They find a much different world outside of their prehistoric village. They find themselves wandering in Bible country meeting Cain, Able, Abraham, and other Bible people along the way, and are sold into slavery ending up in Sodom.
There is a definite "Monty Python" look and feel to the film, and the jokes seem to come at breakneck speed at times. Most are funny. Some take a minute to sink in. And others are downright sacrilegious.
You can imagine what happens when they encounter Adam and Eve (Harold Ramis and Rhoda Griffis), Cain and Abel (David Cross and Paul Rudd), and Abraham (Hank Azaria).
In an interview with MTV, Cera described it as a comedy set in Biblical times with Black's character, Zed, looking for some kind of meaning for his life.
Overall, Black and Cera pull it off, and seem to have a summer smash hit on their hands - and probably a cult following.
The movie is rated PG-13 for crude and sexual content throughout, brief strong language and comic violence. This is a last minute change as the original rating had been "R".
