What's the Longest You've Gone Without Sleep?

So, what's the longest you've gone? I'm about to hit the 40 hour mark right now, but I've maxed out at 4 days in the past; I don't remember anything from that day either. 😏 😧
Remember Me as you go by
As you are now so once was I
As I am now so shall you be,
Prepare yourself to follow me
3 days I believe.

I go a full day about once a week
Give me a hug! <3
2 days and it was with many activities.

SIGNATURE IS A FAVOR, I AM NOT AFFILIATED
48 hours. In the military you will sometimes have days where your schedule will be fully booked even during the hours you should be in bed. Days like this don't happen often.

Yeah, I can't even imagine.

Military? What branch are you in?
48 hours.

Had a gaming tournament set up with friends and were playing games for 24 hours straight.

Great banter
36 hours. I was watching a lot of anime and playing a lot of WoW.
3 days non stop. Never do that shit again. I was young tho, It was a lan party when I were 16. #8 years ago.
4 days, that's not healthy. 2 days MAX for me, but that's once every blue moon.
Personally, about 50 hours. This is not particularly difficult though and I rarely have any need to go this long without sleep, the instance on this occasion was awkwardly timed flights and connections, and excitement which caused sleep to be impossible.

I do, however, know a gentleman by the name of Tony Wright who (by rights) should hold the current world record. He got to sleep on May 25th 2007 after 266 hours awake, after his successful attempt to stay awake for 11 days and pass the record (264h) set by Randy Gardner in 1964. The Attempt was made completely in The Studio Bar, in Penzance, Cornwall, UK, (which at the time was just down the road from me) and was broadcast and recorded live on webcam. He had an open invite 24 hours a day for visitors to come and chat with him in the venue, which remained open continuously for the whole attempt.

I believe, however, that the record was denied him by the Guinness Book of World Records, despite the full recording on camera, due to health concerns. Apparently, it was reckless and unbelievably dangerous (somehow) and GBWR refused to grant him the record.
I'm currently at 57 hours and 30 minutes, will be some more hours today before going to bed.
I think the longest one was 4 days, and give or take some hours.

It's not healthy so I don't recommend it 😏
3 days. It was horrible, you begin to see shit and forget really quicky
Only something like 30 hours. Worked two 8 hour shifts at work too during that.
4 days on an airsoft milsim military simulation in california. Honestly was the best time of my life, this ex navy seal had this energy boosting bar i've never seen in my life and can't find it any store, it kept me running for a good 2 days or so probably drugged af.
