@Mordukai: I think I had 1 or 2, and I became far less aware of my surroundings.

"In February 2006, I quit my job as a security guard (working overnight security, on average from 8pm to 6am 5-6 days a week), I also quit smoking pot at the time. I had used it to help me get to sleep at non-normal hours (i.e., getting to bed at 10 am to wake up at 6pm), but I tried to quit cold turkey, and so I went without sleep for the next 11 days. My friends told me I started behaving rather crazily by the end of it, and eventually I passed out in a chair in my backyard."

That's weird. When I quit I had a week of sleeping 12 hours a day.

Three days with chemical assistance, 36-40 hours without. It's not that unusual for me to go 24 hours without sleep.

49 hours is my longest.


They most physically enduring was last year. After 24 hours of being awake I had to walk for one hour and thirty minutes in the snow. I was not amused.

3 and a bit days, and yes by the end I was seeing mad crap. When I used to do student newspaper, we pulled some stupid hours during production. I'd do that, then go to work. I was in at work one time and I started hallucinating that my boss was poking his face through the curtain, making funny noises and poking his tongue out. Looked at him sitting at his desk, and he was nowhere near doing something that goofy. That's when I knew I was in trouble. Well, that and during the tram ride home, I realised the person sitting next to me moved because I was mumbling weird shit to myself about blue cabbages. True story.

There have been other sleep dep events, but they're usually just the whole 'shadow people in your peripheral vision' thing, or everything looking 2D.

Man, I feel like a real lightweight compared to some of you guys. I once went 44 hours with only 5 minutes sleep though.

Wow, and I thought I was the only one! If I did sleep, however I think the longest I would have stayed awake is about 2 days.

Yea, close to about 3 days.  You get some weird thing going on in your head when you're that sleep deprived like when you're driving and you suddenly realize you're at a stop sign as if you just popped up from nowhere.  Your brain seems to be shutting off almost, kind of crazy.

45 hours was the most I've gone so far that I can remember but the summer is coming up so I'm sure I'll pass that.

Staying up for a long time (More than 3 days I think) isn't cool... Hallucinations start and you have the worst acid trip ever. Not cool bro.

you know there are things called drugs, they give you these things without having to wait over 2 days with no sleep

The longest period I went without sleep was around 48 hours. I had to finish a 20 page research paper on top of a ton of other stuff. Most of that time was spent staring at a computer screen, typing and drinking more coffee than is healthy to consume. The worst part was about 3/4 of the way through, I actually had to drive home from the University library to my house. I literally felt hypervigilant and don't really remember much. Needless to say, I crashed some hours later and will never go that long without sleep.

Three days, and it wasn't the good kind of hallucinations, either.

My cap was about 36 hours, but a friend of mine more or less doesn't sleep the whole week (five days) and sleeps through the entire weekend almost every week. He lives off Rockstar. He says you get used to the hours after a while, it just becomes a different sleep schedule. He also says you can get a lot done when everyone else is asleep.

I did 33 hours before...although when I did this i was 7. Im 13 now, and cant w8 to try again.

Main reason I stayed up was because I had a sleepover, so naturally, we didnt sleep-instead we played The Warriors on the Xbox all night. Then my nephew (I was still 7) came over and we stayed up all night to watch Codename: Kids Next Door Marathon throughout the night. My dad came and made me sleep though. :(

Ah, Codename KND. The good old days.

About 3 days.  I could go on for longer if there are other people staying up and that we have games to play.
