I’m just going to post this link:

It’s at wiki.

Dude went eleven days without sleep- voluntarily.

I might have to think about breaking that one myself.

Also, I would simply note that there are a lot of things that some humans seem capable of doing that ordinary experience and/or doctors tell us is not possible.

A guy held his breath in a tank of water a few weeks ago at the Bahrain Grand Prix. It wasn’t an illusion or a David Blaine type trick. Guy could just slow his heart beat down voluntarily and hold his breath that long.

I would reckon that there are quite a few people out there who could go eleven days or more without sleep without too much difficulty and all manner of other weird things.

I went 48 Hrs with sleep.I was starting to see giant lizards in the middle of the road, which I was cool with because lizards should be run over if they are in the middle of the road anyway, right???
