    Up to a week sometimes a few years ago, I probably got a few minutes half sleep some days though. A few days isn't a problem anymore, don't get too tired.

    Around 45 hours.
    Woke up at 7am one Monday morning, went to college, got home and spent all night finishing a major assignment. Handed in the assignment on Tuesday, and went out drinking to celebrate. Didn't get home until about 4 am on Wednesday morning.

    On a weekend in Paris. Finished work on Thursday evening and got on a plane to Paris that night. Ended up hitting the town and ended up in a casino. Left the casino at 5 o clock Sunday evening, flew out at 9 that night. Got back home at 3 o clock that night.
    My weekend in Paris consisted of me seeing 3 pubs a nightclub and a casino. Should have just stayed at home....

    Sat. 15th May 2008, woke up at 9am. Went out, partied all night, went home to host an afterparty. We stayed up all night having fun...party went into the following night, stayed awake (yes, it was a dedicated group) again all night, eventually passed out around noon on Monday, so...about 52 hours.

    Was I sober at all?

    Not in the slightest.

    I stayed awake 4 days straight on the august bank holiday weekend 07 major session that somehow started in back garden (dublin) and ended up in galway:eek: I would never do it again

    I started to hallucinate and kept swatting imaginary flies then the anger took hold and I snapped at everyone. I remember my friend tried to light a cigarette with a dodgy lighter and I pulled the smoke from her and mashed it up in my hands :o

    Sleep deprivation and alcohol do not mix well with me :o

    Getting a few flights last week I didn't sleep for 2 days. The head went a couple of times in London airport but once I got back to Dublin I was wide awake. Felt like I could stay away forever so had to take a couple of tablets. I think once you get over that hill of tiredness you'll stay awake for days and days.

    Drinking though... there's no chance I could stay awake for more than a day.
