What's the longest time you've been without sleep

[amcdonald]

All thanks to a steady diet of amphetamines, time-killing/mind-numbing activities, and dedication, and a lack of a sense of self-preservation.

Is anyone else as self destructive as I am?

 

[ChooChooChooseMe]

2 days 1 night.

 

[MaverickBP]

[EngenZerO]

[Kadarin]

I don't think anyone else here is that self-destructive. The longest I've gone is something like 35 hours.

 

[cjgallen]

23 hours or so.

 

[meltdown75]

[Siddhartha]

35 hours for a 24 hour plant run at work.

48 hours when I was in school.

 

[tweakmm]

24 hour party people.

what was the occasion? i mean... why did you want to stay awake for a week?

 

[EpsiIon]

Less than two days, I think. Never had a reason not to sleep, although I have had two three-hour nights of sleep in a row. Roughly 6 hours of sleep in 72 hours may be weak to some of you, but it was hard for me.

I've gone a week

Shens!

 

[gar3555]

I went like 2 1/2 days, slept for 2 hrs and went again for a 24 straight...this was for our software engineering project last semester...it sucked...but it was worth it when our robot worked perfectly when controlled locally or using GPS

i dont think your body and bind will be able to function properly without sleep in that long period of time.

 

[amol]

39 hours

I hate last minute projects :thumbsdown:

 

[Regs]

36 hours.

48 if you don't count the 2 hour nap.

 

[dighn]

Record is 264 hours.

 

[Promethply]

Spent about 50 hours driving from NYC to Seattle.

 

[TheLonelyPhoenix]

30-35 hours, after I discovered StarCraft. That was several years ago. Even on last-minute crunch project days, I can only go for 30 before I crash and need at least a couple hours of sleep.
