We visualized 3 incredible real stories that broke on Twitter first, how they unfold in real time and scooped traditional media.

Death of Osama bin Laden, May 2, 2011: After hearing the rare sound of helicopters, Abbottabad IT consultant Sohaib Athar unknowingly live-tweeted the U.S. Navy SEAL raid that resulted in Osama bin Laden's death, hours before the news hit the wires. Once the news broke, Athar tweeted, “Uh oh, now I'm the guy who live-blogged the Osama raid without knowing it.” (Sound waves illustrate the dramatic timeline).

Birth of the Royal Baby, July 22, 2013: Freelance photographer Jesal Parshotam had been waiting outside St Mary's Hospital in London for nine hours when he noticed cars carrying the royal couple arriving at the back of the hospital.
