Chris Baker's Final Photo

Posted Sep 22nd 2008 7:25PM by TMZ Staff

TMZ has obtained a photo of Chris Baker just moments before he boarded the Learjet that crashed on takeoff.

Baker sent the cell phone photo at 11:22 ET, 31 minutes before the plane crashed. Baker e-mailed the photo to a friend with the text, "Go hard on the block."

Baker, Travis Barker's assistant, was one of the four people who died in the crash. The video of the jet was shot by Baker before he boarded.

5. TMZ, enough already, let these families grieve without knowing every single thing these people did in the last minutes. It helps no one. Have respect for the victims
