This is not traveling. It's not a double dribble. It's not anything. It's just a fumble.

You cannot travel unless you are holding the ball. The one exception is a player who tosses the ball into the air, runs, and catches it. And, of course, i'm referring to a pass, not a try.

Another myth dispelled.
