Born in Saudi Arabia, al-Ghamdi left his home to fight in Chechnya after dropping out of college, but was reported to have diverted to Afghanistan to train in an [[Al-Qaeda]] camp. It was reported he was chosen by [[Osama bin Laden]] to participate in terrorist attacks in the United States and arrived in the U.S. in June 2001. During his stay in the U.S., he quietly settled in Florida, planning out how the attacks would commence and training on flight simulators.

On September 11, 2001, it was reported he boarded United 93 and assisted in the hijacking of the plane, which was crashed into a field in the control of hijacker-pilot [[Ziad Jarrah]] in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, after the passengers attempted to take control of the plane in an uprising.
