Can anyone think of a good major event that happened in the past 5 years where one would expect to see a ton of tweets per second?

I'd like to find the exact time when the death of Robin Williams was announced and do a one hour firehose scan on Twitter. I'm trying to locate the roundabout exact time the news broke. If you can help find that out, I would greatly appreciate it!

A Goolge search with custom time range isn't showing many results but this is the oldest tweet

I found this one by Wil Wheaton that is an hour earlier: twitter.com/wilw/status/49
I am going to do a comprehensive scan to see how Twitter reacted to his death.
