Subject: I want to break the record for the longest time without sleeping.

You should know that three days into the Navy Seals "Hell Week" they make them sleep for a few hours. This is so they don't get hurt. It's not as easy or as without risk as it might sound.

One does not choose a destiny, his destiny is bestowed, shaped and formed, from the soul.

I stayed up for 30+ hours. It was suprisngly easy. But 11 days? You'll die. Or be hospitalized for a long time

Have you wondered why no one has broken this record since the 60's? Good grief you seem clueless.

Stop trying to put him down, purely because he isn't all knowing. You are mean and arrogant, and should simply waste away, never to be recollected by any part of humanity.

There's that bloke that can hold his breath for 9 minutes. Sure, he did it. You can't.

You'll either pass out, or die.


yea well that is different isn't it. This would quickly become a mental challenge. If I could not lose my mind then I would be fine
This would not be a mental challenge. It would be an extreme physical one.

why? the kid did it and he was fine. I have gone a little over 48 hours and I was perfectly fine. Sure when I stopped moving I passed out, but as long as I kept doing stuff I would make it
Doing stuff for over a week straight? Ha, that's funny.

Extremely dangerous, you can develop psychosis, have seizures, and actually go crazy.

Don't do it.

I'm in good physical shape, on my football team. Not over weight. Obviously I would sleep if I had to, but I know I can break this record

This isn't a case of classical Disney "If you will it, it can be true!". This is reality, you'd die, or get really -blam!- up and pass out.

But this kid didn't die! and the medical advances we have made since then are so much better. If this kid had died I wouldn't be doing this. The doctor even said he was perfectly fine (apart from the hallucinations).

why could this kid do it if it was so dangerous?

In 2009 I had a gran mull seizure I was free from them for 3 years and in November of last year. 2012, I had 16 in a row in one day cause I couldn't sleep. I woke up in hospital bed with a fractured lowered spine and in a catheter, they don't go somewhere pleasant. You want that OP?
Ouch


And this was a few months after I had my surgery. I was healing just fine and then bam I got hit. Sucks to go backwards.

He just could. There's a man who doesn't produce lactic acid, he can run forever. You, would die. It's the same thing.

Just because the kid did it, doesn't mean you can.

But, by all mean, go ahead with the suicide.

Actually some effects of lacking the REM cycle in deep sleep or severe sleep deprivation: Stroke, Heart Attacks, Heart Failure, Hallucinations, Mental Illness, Psychiatric Problems, loss of basic and higher cognitive functions, loss of basic and higher mobility functions, high blood pressure, seizures, possible organ failure and death. Those who set the previous records were all carefully monitored in experiments by experts.

For things like hallucinations and mental instability you may never ever recover from.

Some of what I listed is from the more extreme cases where disorders lead to long-term sleep deprivation, but keep in mind it is not just a "get up and go" record.

THAT is an overstatement to say the least. My brother is in the US Marine Corps and in a half-staffed security forces field. He was pulling a triple (maybe quadruple) shift and was up for somewhere around 106+ hours when he just dropped at the wheel of the armored vehicle he was driving on patrol. I guess he leaned on the gas but he hit a tree hard enough for his head to crack the windshield, his chest to snap the seat belt and break off the steering wheel, crumple the front end, buckle in an armored door on his leg, and crack his "bulletproof" helmet and vest. It almost killed him. If he wasn't wearing his protective equipment he would have been killed no questions. For a while afterwards and even in the hospital he was going in and out of consciousness due to "Microsleeps," which force you into a sleep no matter what activity you are doing.

Needless to say it is not something to do unmonitored and in most attempts for the record you are actually allowed to sleep, just not fall into REM sleep which is the most important part of your sleep. Bad things happen if you are deprived of your REM sleep long enough.

really, is that all you can come up with. He just could? Maybe I "just could". No one should be able to jump from space, hit the sound barrier and live yet someone did. No one should be able to climb Mt. Everest without extra oxygen yet people still do it.

The first person HAS done it, that's why there's a record. Jesus tits, friendo. Try the record for most earthworms shoved up yer arse.

They shouldn't have records in the book that people have to put themselves at risk of psychosis to get.
