      The best and only way for a 48 ride ! Although It can be the best ride ever, or the worst nightmare you will ever experience :/. Either way those experience are the two sides of the same coin !

    In 1989 I was one of the participants in the (then) Guinness World Record Endurance Computing held at the Hobby Computer Club days (HCC dagen) in the Netherlands.

    The record was for 63.5 hours, but I had a two hour or so commute in each direction and the event started (from memory) at noon.

    I’m guessing that I was awake in total for about 70 hours. I fell asleep on the way home.

    We published a newsletter called “Elephant News” every few hours. Time keeping was managed by official time keepers and it was entered into the Guinness World Records in the 1990 book. I have a copy somewhere.

    At some point not long after, Guinness abolished all world records that only had a time component and as far as I know it still stands :)

    With 30 mins naps included, probably 72 hrs during filming a short film.

    But if youre asking for a straight awake, it is around 26-27 hours. It was also during that time. The first day of filming until I got my first nap.

      I’d be in a similar boat cramming in a project in college that I realized 72 hours before due date that I needed to do all the research. I thought my time to present was the next month, but I wrote it down wrong. I wasn’t foolish enough to not power nap a few times in there so I still had some semblance of sanity to present.

    About a week ; there were some very hard drugs involved, and I credit that experience with getting cleaned up. Started seeing “shadow people” in my very peripheral vision.

    Around 2.5-3 days. On a LAN party in 2003 or so. 2 nights without sleep. Lots of caffeine. It was fun at first but really started feeling terrible after the 2nd night.

    It was about 6 days. It was during college and I was at the peak of a manic episode fueled by alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine. I worked nights on the weekends and went from the beginning of my Sunday night shift through my Friday night shift. I went to my classes during the day, hopped from one party to the next at night until everyone else passed out, then just drove through all of the back country roads we have while everyone else was asleep. In the first couple of days I had auditory hallucinations and 3-4 days in there were shadow people. By the end of the week it was hard to tell if I was awake or dreaming. Surprisingly when I finally slept it was only for like 13 hours and I made it back in for my Saturday night shift.

    I had insomnia for many years. I slept 30-60 mins a night then crash for five or six hours once a week. It was horrible. I’d rather take these mind altering drugs than go back to that
