Almost 4 days. The first 60 hours were kind of accidental. My friend Matt and I were playing Final Fantasy 6 almost the entire time, and we couldn't get ourselves to stop. By the time we hit the 3rd day, we just decided to go for more and tried to stay up as long as possible. It was during the summer, and we had little else to do. By the time I hit the 4th day, I was so completely insane that I couldn't even think straight.

Actually, wait...it was almost three days...I think... honestly, I can't remember. Everything after that first 48 hours is just a blur.

I remember like it was yesterday...

Noon on a Friday till about 10 am tuesday. My best friend and I drank a LOT of Frappucino.

We suffered permanent brain damage from that, I'm sure. So, I guess 94 hours it would be...

We went to bed after we noticed how stupid we were...

I was going for a record when I was younger. I made it 40 or so hours and my mom caught me riding my bike w/ my friend around 4 am. I had to go to sleep.

Eh, back in the day (In like 8th grade during the Summer) me and my best friend at the time tried to see how long we could stay awake for. We didn't even last 40 hours before we passed out for like 15..

During Finals week, if I have a break in days before tests, I will not sleep. Lots of coffee, slerpees, etc. to stay awake, but I've stayed up a little over 2 days during those times. No more than 55 hours or so though.

60 or so. I don't remember what happened after I took a shower. I just have a faint memory of leaping into bed. Anyway, I find it kind of interesting how time starts to accelerate exponentially after around 20-24 hours of being awake. It's easy to just keep going after that time. When I stay up for an abnormally long amount of time, I start to feel irreparably dehydrated and like I'm in a different world; an unpleasant dream world.

Myth sayeth no sleep for a week *will* render you unconscious no matter the circumstances, or you would die. Anyone care to try?

Three days is about my limit. It's easy for me to stay awake as long as I have something to do. Id est, when I had gotten HPatOotP, I didn't bother sleeping or eating (unless I was told to) for three nights. I finished the book in that period, too.
