What's the longest time you ever stayed up?

[BongMan]

I could never crack the full week mark Kenjito I applaud your abilities

[Atlantis77]

84 hours without drugs. But then again i do that on the regular, i sleep once every 3 or 4 days, its been like that for about a year now. I just dont enjoy sleepin anymore.

It's actually technical impossible to go without sleep longer than 48 hours
without the aid of chemicals (amphetamines ect).

After the second trough (time when your brain wants to sleep the most)
your brain will start imposing micro-sleeps on you.
They can be as short as a few miliseconds and you won't necessarily realize that one just took place. This can be dangerous ie driving : asleep at the wheel. It's though the micro-sleeps are the brains way of protecting itself, maby so you won't go mad.

Mind you, "staying up" is different than "going without sleep".

You don't enjoy sleeping? Well I don't enjoy having a bowel movement, but some things are just a part of life and you gotta do them so that your body is healthy and keeps on going. Get some sleep dude!

Used to have Red Dwarf and Quake marathons with my buddies every weekend. We'd be awake from Friday morning until late Sunday night, with no help what-so-ever from drugs- unless you count McCain Superfries and Jolt cola drugs. :) Ah, those were the days..

I've done about a week last summer. It was brutal. And I just recently did 3 days no sleep, minimal drugs and a lot of drinking. That was a breeze.

[wum]

Is it like the story in The Machinist?

[Grapes]

PS 36 hours or so.

PPS You people are fucking crazy

[L0ungeLizarD]

26 hours but longest i didnt take a dump for was 7 or 8 days

[tvmann]

Lots of these numbers I just don't believe. 6 days - no way!!!

Like "big fish" stories (the fish gets bigger every time the story is told).

Longest I've been up was about 48 hours, and the mini-hallucinations and micro-sleeps start to happen before that. Dangerous to be driving at that point.

[ty_guy]
