Hans_Gruber Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 There is a new programme that started last night on Channel 4 ok UK television called shattered. It involves I think 8 people and they have to stay awake for 8 nights and 7 days and the winner takes away ?100,000 but for every 10 seconds someone closes their eyes ?1000 is deducted from the total, they do tests and stuff and people get eliminated etc. To cut a long story short I was just wondering what the maximum time that anyone from Neowin has spent awake, I have only managed about 48 hours on holiday last year with my friends. Whats your maximum time?:sleep:p::sleep:p::sleep:p::sleep:p: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetman Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 sounds like a pretty cool show, anytime i stay up for around 24 hours i think of the pete & pete episode where he tried to stay up for a long period of time. that was a good show. theme song is cool still have it and found some episodes on kazaa (got alot of those old nick shows there man they need to reair them one day) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdsalih Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 Around 4 days... roughly 90 odd hours... was watching movies/playing games and stuff during the holidays... was out like a light after... slept for around 20-24 hours if i recall correctly. Do 2-3 day all nighters fairly often too. I dunno what it is.. think the max. time you can stay awake gradually increases as the more often you do all nighters and for longer durations.. the better you get at it. In no way do I recommend trying to stay awake this long though.. has tonnes of side effects. MdSalih Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicane-UK Veteran Posted January 5, 2004 Veteran Share Posted January 5, 2004 No more than a day at the absolute most. Never quite seen the point of not sleeping.. the body doesn't make you sleep for the hell of it. You need sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
