I mean, the longest time you spent without sleeping, I'm on a crazy trend about that lately since the last days have been:

34h awoken followed by 8 hours of sleep followed by 22h awoken followed by 2h of sleep followed by 15h awoken followed by 1h sleep, and now I'm back on a 32h with no sleep, just crazy, don't remind it happened before.

A total of 103h awoken for 11h of sleep, waaah.

Over than that my 'no sleeping record' has been 51-52h a few years back, and when it happened I actually felt insane.

I don't know about actual time awake, but I've never been up much longer than midnight.  A close election could easily change that.

26 hrs, and that was mostly because of jetlag.

I work mids, so 24 isn't uncommon if I got sh**t going on, but I really try to avoid.  It's not healthy to do it.  Messes with your head and digestion something fierce.  No idea what my record is, I'm sure it's north of 35 though.

Gonna guess like forty-four-ish. If I wake up at like 8 AM on a Friday, and the pledges cross about midnight between Saturday and Sunday, so I end up awake 'til 4 AM Sunday morning, that'd be 44.

About 35 hours back when I was 5 years old. No particular reason for not sleeping that I can remember, I guess I just didn't feel like it.

When my uncle was working as a paramedic, there were times when he was awake for days on end.  I can't lay claim to that myself, though.

From 2am Moscow Time to 11 pm Pacific Daylight Time through a series of westbound flights. If I've done my math right, that's 31 hours.

Between my inability to sleep on planes and my ability to pull one-nighters, my record is 69 hours between sleeping times. But the last ~25 hours of that were utterly nonfunctional and just waiting for a chance to finally go to bed.

I work overnight, and I catnap during the daytime, and get full nights rest on weekends. I can go 35 hrs when not working or laid off.

I can't recall anything much more than 24.  I've tried before but I always fall asleep after about 24 hours.

Is that a word?  I think you're making that up.

I was awakened if an external stimulus happened (transitive) or I awoke (intransitive) if it happened all by itself.  Somebody feel free to correct me.  (Not Ernest.  You make up words all the time.  You don't count.)

Anyway, maybe from about 6ish one morning till around 8ish the next evening.  Something like 38 hours.  Feels like hell.  I don't recommend it.

At least 40 hours, probably more.

On multiple occasions I've just skipped sleep. Which is terrible for my health, but sleep is boring and sometimes my brain just goes too fast and I spend 5 hours browsing the internet or reading a book or whatever and by then it's morning and I hate sleeping when the sun's out so I just sigh and say "screw it, who needs sleep?" but it's quickly proven to me that everyone needs sleep.

32 hours. If I stay up past 8 PM tomorrow I'll beat it, but that's not happening.

Close to 40, if I recall.  Horrible.

Somewhere between 65 - 75 hours. I can't remember exactly how long. There was a 40 minute nap somewhere in there as well.

Probably 40 something when I was a stupid college freshman and tried to pull all-nighters.  A couple months ago I spent 30 something hours awake straight, 22 of which were spent moving furniture.  One of the worst experiences of my life.

When I was a junior in undergrad I had a really bad week with 3 straight days of mid-term exams and 1 large paper. I did not sleep during that 3 day period and by the time I took my exam on day 3 my brain was buzzing so loudly that I got a 25. Luckily I was allowed to retake the exam after sleep and got a 90. Sleep is important.

Yeah eventually I learned that all-nighters were just not worth it
