41 hrs. New personal best.
Though sounds were a bit more hyper in my head.
Woke up at midnight because I swore heard something calling me.

Why were you up for 4 days?
And what does one do?

I think I did a run of 30-some hours one time. They say that eventually, if you stay awake for long enough, you start to drift in and out of light sleep without even being aware of it. And I believe it. If I go over a day without sleep I get into this really weird funk where everything starts to blur and I can't concentrate or hold a good conversation. It's kind of like that buzz you get before you become drunk, only with cold chills and in my case indigestion. Yeah, my digestive system doesn't like my sleep deprivation.

I think a more impressive record is how long have you all slept for. I think I've done 14 or 15 hours of sleep, totally awesome.

I'd guess close to around 40-42 hours once in high school...I had a final video project for class that I decided to shoot and edit pretty much all in one night. Luckily I had a friend to help out but it didn't make the next day very much fun. I nearly fell asleep at a red light driving into school...Then almost fell asleep in different classes, but I made it to bed that night.

A few over nighters in college, but nothing too crazy. I'm usually in a situation where I never really have to stay up for 24 straight hours anymore, but I suppose I would if I was having a good time.

My brother had a friend who had a cousin who stayed up on asparin for 60+ hours. He ended up in hospital and I think he never told his mother.

Longest I've done is probably from 4AM to 2AM or so, around 22 hours...
Last sunday actually was pretty long. 4AM to 12PM. We went mudflat hiking, it was awesome.
