i've probably done just about 24 hours without sleep.

during last summer though, whilst working 2 part time jobs i found myself only getting 5 hours a night for a few months, generally between 10am and 3-4pm, which any night worker will tell you aren't great sleeping hours.

Around 40 hours. I remember I definitely stayed up for more than the 36 but less than the ol' 48.

My girlfriend somehow stayed up the 48. :eek:

I don't know. Your brain gets a bit fuzzy from 21-22 onwards and you start to forget things from around 30 hours on.

What's the longest you've gone without reading a thread about this?

34 hours, never ever again. Despite that I don't think I'm able to pull an all-nighter anymore, always end up wrecked around 11 the following morning, but it's been about 3 years since I last tried.

Have done 36 hours several times. About 40 hours was the longest. I only managed them last 4 hours as was on a bus back from Dublin to Letterkenny, and I rarely sleep whilst traveling.
