What's the longest time you have ever stayed awake?

Taking my inspiration from the sleeping-in thread, i decided to start one about how long we have all stayed awake for.

My record is 54 hours. That involved getting up at 6AM for a flight, waiting 6 hours for the delayed flight, then flying to Paris (24 hours), getting to paris at 7am in the morning and then staying up until 10 that night to "adjust" to the new timezone.

What's the longest for YOU?

only 55 hours and some minutes.

Finals week, my autumn quarter here. It was harsh...drinking coffee, soda, and amp (and more than a few No-Doz). I think I got a 3.2 that quarter...

I might have mentioned this before on the forums, but I'll say it again anyway...

The longest I've been awake for is 62 hours. It was to finish off a project for university. After that amount of time I could really start to see and feel the effects of sleep deprivation.

My eyes were bloodshot, I felt physically weak, I could barely walk in a straight line and my concentration levels were amazingly low. I remember sitting there thinking "Jeez, I should really be working on my project just now". It took me about 30 seconds to realise I was working on my project that very moment.

Oh look! It's 7:37am. Might be sleep time soon...

Well, it's 7:42 now...
