The longest you've slept, the longest you've been awake.

[Robert Ewing]

I stayed awake for around 3 days and 6 hours once, I was surprisingly fine after I slept, but the following week was torture. Get your sleep you horrible children.

Longest I slept was 27 hours. I'd had a month of properly intense jobs and workouts, only had 1 hour sleep each night, and that's adding on the time it took me to actually fall asleep.

When I woke up I shat bricks because I had hundreds of calls on my phone asking where I was.

I sense a lot of exaggeration in this thread.

T: not counting being sick since that is cheating, I would say 11-13 hours of sleeping after a hellish week.
My awake record is around 40 hours.

 

[michiehoward]

78 hours. From first contraction all the way til the wheeled me into the surgery recovery room.
I pass out for 45 mins before they finally brought me my son. Then I was up for another 20 hrs.

Longest slept 17 hours. After 48 hours of partying...ahhh 99' a good year.

 

[Tiger Sora]

About 60 hours is the longest I've ever been up. And I doubt I'll ever do it again.

Longest I ever slept was for more than 24 hours... maybe close to 30. I had the flu that was hell bent on killing me. And I just sleeeeeept. I had to go to the hospital before that to make sure I wasn't gona die from it. Forget what they gave me.

I think the longest I was asleep was from 11 PM to 1 PM the next day, so 14 hours. The longest I have been awake for? Probably about 24 hours.

Longest sleep- 12/ 13 hours I think. My brother friend had a sleep over in our home and he pretty much convince us to sleep in more even at 11pm.

Loneget being awake- 32 hours I think. I panick during the night before my driving pratical test so I was wide awake throughout the night and next day. Yeah I was still awake during the test and fail (I hesistanted too much) and it was only after the test I started to feel tried.

I once stayed awake for over 72 hours when I first got skyrim, sad I know. I ended up sleeping for 26!! hours, when I woke up I thought it had only been 2 hours and I got really confused.

:O)

 

[danirax]

about 90 awake after that about 70 asleep...yea I know its a lot to sleep, some of my friends thought I died....

 

[Denamic]

~4 days awake.
It was a great LAN party.
And I was in a coma for 3 days once, so yeah.

 

[floobie]

Probably about 14-15 hours of sleep when I was sick at some point.

Longest awake was about 40-42 hours. Nothing amazing probably, but I certainly felt like crap. That was the only all-nighter I ever had to do for any school in my entire life. I'm pretty proud that I managed to get a degree with only one all nighter.

22 slept 3 days awake then slept on the floor

 

[Feylynn]

I think the longest I must have stayed awake is 50 hours or so... Not a fine science this one... You don't keep track of time to well when you're that tired.
After 30 hours you really start to lose mental function, recalling things is near impossible and logical thought process is such a daunting mountain you just kind of stand there at the base of it wondering how to get up.

I think I enjoy my sleep to much now to even bother trying for more, the good numbers are easiest when you're 16, full of sugar, and easily enthralled by something new. Just gets harder from then on.

Longest asleep... Maybe 20 hours uninterrupted, likely longer if you count waking up and not caring enough to get out of bed and drifting back to sleep. Maybe an embarrassing amount more... Like twice that.

It was after surgery, you never appreciate how much of your body uses your abdominal muscles until you have holes in them. Really convincing argument for the stay in bed and do nothing school of action. Though I imagine there has been competing occasions for no good reason at all.

 

[lacktheknack]

about 2 days awake but by then I'm already climbing into bed because I'm constantly yawning which I wanna get rid of -.-

I am physically incapable of pulling an all-nighter. I passed out after twenty hours.

I'm also a bit of an insomniac. I've managed to sleep for eleven hours, when I had a milder flu.

An Insomniac who is incapable of not sleeping? WOOT!?!?!

Oxymorons FTW!

I said "a bit". I can't stay up for twenty-four hours, but I can't fall asleep until I've been up for eighteen. ;_;

Unless I take meds. Which I hate doing.

 

[MetaKnight19]

2 and a half days awake, 2 days asleep (if being unconscious in hospital counts)

 

[Alexias_Sandar]

Longest awake? 7 days, 8 hours. Longest asleep? 48 hours, to the minute, immediately after that when I sat down waiting for dinner...and woke up smelling it finishing...and thought I'd just dozed off. Turned out I'd been asleep for 48 hours and nothing would wake me up. I didn't find out I'd missed the time until the meal was almost done and I commented about something I'd been going to do the next day, and found out...well, sorry, it's a little too late for that.

 

[Oirish_Martin]

65 awake, probably about 21 asleep.

The 65 awake I managed no problem when I was about 19. A few years further on and staying up for 24 is enough to absolutely floor me.

 

[Funky Flump]

Bout 24 for both, back to back.

 

[n00beffect]

36 hours of sleep. Best bloody time in my life! I was very ill one summer, and when I went asleep in the late evening I woke up in the morning, two days after.

Woo. Sounds a lot like me. I drank hot chocolate made from unpasteurized milk straight from the cow down the road in a foreign country (brilliant idea, that), and after getting violently sick, I slept for the next 36 hours and don't remember any of the rest of it fortunately.

The longest I've been awake was about 72 hours. In the same weekend, I went to the prom, the party afterward, and then a lanparty the following day that continued until the afternoon after that, with no breaks in between. I was a bit tired by the end, but as long as I kept doing something and didn't give myself a chance to get bored, I was still surprisingly alert and fairly functional. As soon as I lay down at home, though, I passed out within a minute for the next 21 hours or so.

Man, how do you guys do that...? I've gotta try this sometime, get a couple of vacant days, lots of cash, and just hop from party to party, see how long I can last

 

[Jharry5]

Wow... some of the times here are massive.
The longest I've been awake was around the 38 hour mark. I started feeling really unwell and drousy. When I slept, I slept for 18 hours straight, which also happens to be the longest I've slept in one go.

 

[Knusper]

longest awake was about 3 days, although I'm not entirely sure if I didn't sleep earlier, because the last bit went by in a haze. The longest I've been asleep for is probably about 11 hours, because I wake up and get bored.
