Seriously, when you get in a plane, there's a chance it'll never make it to Jamaica or where ever the hell you're going. Planes aren't perfect, some people die in them. It's just the way it is. Now, the family of one of the victims in the Travis Barker crash is suing, too. And I say "too" because Travis Barker is doing the same thing, proving himself to be the most ungrateful person in addition to the luckiest. TMZ reports:
Chris Baker, Travis Barker's best friend and assistant, died in the private jet crash last September. His wife, Otilia Villar Baker and son Sebastian, claim in a lawsuit filed today in L.A. County Superior Court that the pilots "negligently decided to abort and/or reject the takeoff." In other words, the lawsuit claims the proper procedure should have been to take off with the ruptured tire/tires.
The suit claims Baker suffered "severe pre and post-impact injury, damage to property, pain, suffering, and emotional distress, and ultimately died due to fatal injuries sustained from said crash including but not limited to the post-impact fire." And there's this ominous line: "The death was not immediate."

I do feel awful for the family, but suing based on what the dead pilots did is just strange. Accidents happen, everyone put your opened wallets away and pretend to grieve.
