I've had two over 48 hours

I'll try work how long they were

One was my school trip to Paris

I got up about 7 that morning, we went to school then left at 1 in morning. Never slept a wink on the bus, arrived in paris at about 4 in afternoon, we had a party in hotel that night. I was so tired I couldn't get to sleep if you catch my drift, I think I eventually passed out after Disneyland at about 5pm that day.

I do believe thats about 58 hours... although I may have dosed off on the way to Disneyland that day. I was't actually that tired until I stopped moving then slept that whole night, it was great. And enjoyed Disneyland the next day.

--------

Second one was Summer 2001

Once again up at around 7 on the Friday for school. We helped with school show that day, then helped at the show at night. There was a party after the school show which lasted the whole night. Went home but it was about 6 so never went to sleep. Then we went into Glasgow on Saturday and off to another party that night which again I never got any sleep but eventually came home and went to bed at about 10 am.

I think that's 51 hours... once again as above I never felt that tired, after you hit a certain hour things seem to lose focus and you lose track of time but when you close your eyes you go BOOM into a deep sleep.

------

My mate claimed he was awake for over three days as he became addicted to caffeine pills and was scared of the hotel he was staying in.

So what's yours?

Hmmmm, well my mate had a sleep over thing at his house when I was about 11 and we stayed up all night then I think I went to bed about 10pm the next evening. So 6.30am on Friday until 10pm Saturday night. That is about 39 hours 30 mins roughly, obviously the times arent exactly right :)

Ooh, when I went to York on a school trip, probably.

The night before we were going back up - I had been up at 7am, and we decided to do an all-nighter - not many of us managed it, but I did, and we were all shattered when we were leaving York the next morning at 9am - I didn't sleep on the bus the whole way back either, and until I got back home, I didn't really start to feel tired. Once I got home though, at about 2pm, I started to feel a little dizzy, but decided to stay up for another couple of hours, and ended up staying up until 9pm that night.

About 36 hours - I just couldn't go much longer.

That's what I had last night. I had to get up early for work today but didn't get to sleep until like 4:45am, leaving me with like 2hours sleep before work.

I'm off to Paris with college in Febuary, also to Disneyland. I'll probably end up in a simular situation.

About 44-45 hours. Wasn't overly special, just felt really tired near the end.
