TRAVIS BARKER - BARKER STILL GUILTY OVER BODYGUARD'S DEATH

BARKER STILL GUILTY OVER BODYGUARD'S DEATH

Rocker TRAVIS BARKER is wracked with guilt over the death of his friend and bodyguard CHARLES 'CHE' STILL - because the "huge teddy bear" should never have been on the plane which crashed and ended his life.
The Blink-182 star and DJ bandmate Adam Goldstein were flying back to Los Angeles from South Carolina after a gig in September (09) and Barker offered his pal a vacant seat on his private jet, which was booked for his ex-wife and on/off partner Shanna Moakler.
Moakler pulled out of the trip at the last minute, stating she felt bad about leaving the couple's kids behind - and Still agreed to take her place onboard the Learjet, which failed to clear the runway at take-off and burst into flames.
Barker and Goldstein escaped the blaze but their two friends onboard and both pilots were killed - and the drummer fears he'll never be able to forgive himself for offering Still a seat on the ill-fated journey.
He tells Rolling Stone magazine, "We all thought it was kind of a treat - we were on a private plane. Obviously, I wouldn't want it to be my baby's mama (onboard), but I don't want it to be one of my best friends either. That always f**ks me up."
