Rob Lowe: I Flew on 9/11 Terrorists’ Dry Run

While Rob Lowe was playing Sam Seaborn on the West Wing, he found himself in a real-life DC drama—albeit unwittingly. Lowe often took the same flight from DC to LA, and 11 days before the Sept. 11 attacks, he ended up flying on a "dry run" with the terrorists. "I got on the flight and it was packed, small plane. Looked around the cabin, don't remember anything in particular, nobody looked scary, nobody looked like a terrorist. It looked like an absolutely normal flight," Lowe said yesterday on the View.

He only later found out the 9/11 hijackers were on board. Eleven days later, that same flight crashed into the Pentagon, the Huffington Post reports. Click for more revelations from Rob Lowe. (More September 11 stories.)
