DJ AM -- Spared From Second Plane Crash

DJ AMUPDATE -- DJ AM's publicist flatly denies that he was ever booked on the Continental flight that crashed in Buffalo. His rep tells us, "DJ AM was never booked on the Continental flight that crashed last month, in fact he was performing that evening in NYC. That crash nor the one he was involved in, has prevented him from flying -- although he has tremendously scaled back his east coast residencies to focus on his recovery."

DJ AM, in an incredible sequence of events, was scheduled to fly on the doomed Continental flight that crashed in Buffalo and killed 49 people -- it would have been his second plane crash in six months.

According to a rep for a club in Chicago, AM backed out of a gig in Chicago because he doesn't want to fly anymore. The club rep says AM was booked on the Continental flight, but had a bad feeling about it and canceled and drove instead.

DJ AM now says his flying days are over. He will only book gigs if he can drive to them.

47. S--- happens. My friend bought a brand new car. It was stolen and found parked at the airport 7 months later. The car he'd bought to replace it was totaled in an accident, just 5 mins after he dropped me off at work. He was lucky to survive.These incidents occured around the same time in the month of June each year. He takes the bus now.
This guy shouldn't fly for awhile. Having been through the first crash probably saved his life this time 'cause he listened to his inner voice.

48. I think this is untrue because DJ AM was in buffalo before the crash on Feb 10th, the crash was feb 13th, and Buffalo is not a hub airport that he would stop at on th way to Chicago!!

49. This is HIGHLY unlikely people.... even for someone who travels as much as a DJ. I think the probability of 2 fatal plane crashes in 6 months for one passenger is probably somewhere in the neighborhood of 1 in 600 million. Not even lottery odds.

55. I just wanted to add this..There was 50 victims of Flight 3407 NOT 49..yes 49 people did crash in the plane..but there was also a man on the ground that was killed also...He was a husband and a father...I live 45 minutes from the crash site..And EVERY victim deserves their respects...There was even a mother-to-be on the plane..6 months pregnant..But nobody can mention that because the baby had never taken a breath..But please..update your numbers!!!
