Question

How many days can a person go with out sleep?

Answer 1

My current record is 63 hours.

However, I do believe that the longest any one has ever stayed awake has been eleven days.

I wouldn't recommend trying it though because it cause your body some serious problems and may even result in nerve damage.

Answer 2

depends on the person I would guess... but I can prolly go about 2 days.

Answer 3

i have heard it said that a lack of sleep can kill a person quicker than hunger, I also heard of a member of I think it was the rolling stones who did not sleep for six nights due to performing and partying.
