The cockpit voice recorder captured the sound of passengers attempting to break through the door. Like the three other planes hijacked on September 11, Flight 93 was overtaken by al-Qaeda intent on crashing it into the White House or the U.S. Capitol. For approximately 20 minutes, passengers and crew relayed information about their hijacking...and received word of the grim news on the ground. Flight attendant Sandra Bradshaw boiled water, to throw on the hijackers. Todd Beamer, could be heard saying to the others while on a call with a telephone operator. "Let's roll."
