Featuring appearances from collaborators, cultural icons and those closest to him. This is the story of the man behind the tattoos. A tribute to those who keep going when the music almost stops."

I feel incredibly lucky to be able to document it and be able to share it with all of you,” Barker previously explained at Hulu’s Get Real House event. “This documentary started over 10 years ago and it’s been a wild, wild ride and I can’t wait to share it with the world.”

Barker has talked extensively about the long-lasting impact of the plane crash, which left him with 65% burns over his body and resulted in a 13-year-long fear of flying.
The drummer shared photos of his injuries in his autobiography Can I Say: Living Large, Cheating Death, And Drums, Drums, Drums.
Talking about his decision to include gruesome pictures of his injuries in the book, he explained: "I got those pictures [taken] because Tom, especially, was pressuring me to fly again. I tried to explain it to him, like ‘I can’t do it yet, I’m not ready’.
"So I ended up showing Tom and Mark (Hoppus), although Mark was always very supportive from day one. He even visited me in the hospital [...] Whereas, with Tom, there was constant pressure."
Travis Barker had always had a fear of flying, but following his plane crash, he had severe PTSD and refused to fly again.
It wasn't until 2021 that he boarded a plane for the first time in 13 years, after support from his now-wife Kourtney Kardashian.
Speaking to the LA Times about the accomplishment, Barker said: “I think the power of love really helped me," adding: "Kourt made it so I fly, my kids fly now. She healed us."
