Longest time without sleep?

52 hours, 38 minutes & 12 seconds.

Last man standing charity event for Comic Relief when I was 18.

Took 2 weeks to recover, a week of that under hospital care.

There were 9 of us taking part and I 'won' by a mere 34 seconds.

Probably wasn't the best way of raising money.
 
Just a little over 2 Days, And the sleep was epic.

Right now I've been awake since 3pm Yesterday. So 26 and half hours so far today. I'm attempting to last while 9pm, so I sleep through till morning. If I go now, I'll wake up at like 2/3am which will mean my pattern will be ****
 
Just over 24 hours

Didn't sleep the night tried to watch the GP the Sunday and fell asleep sometime during it. I am pathetic when it comes to sleep, and I'm sure caffeine makes me tired, 8 hours sleep is ideal for me

Shortest sleep over a week was university tour! Oh dear god that was bad. Felt so rough, but that's another story entirely! I'm sure others who have been understand! Some weird poo happened that week!
 
About 48 hours.

I have seen doctors work 48h shifts with no more then 2 hours of sleep (not in the uk) I don't know how they do it.
 
40 hours (work all day, all night, all next day - then went out with mates). Felt fine to be honest, by far the worst I've felt was when I grabbed 1 hours sleep after working all night, big mistake.

Gone longer at lan events but you tend to get some sneaky naps in so doesn't really count.

Everyones different though, I might sail through an all nighter but getting me out of bed before 6am on a regular basis would be horrific.

Same. About ten years ago in my teens. Went out on a friday morning to get a carry out, didn't get home until the monday morning about 5am. Then I spent three days in bed sleeping and recovering.

Couldn't do it now though. 12 hours without sleep and stone cold sober, and I'm like grumpy the dwarf.
 
3 days over my birthday this year.

Slept for ages afterwards :D and didn't feel too bad. I can get by with little sleep :)
 
24 hours - most of a day, a long flight (don't sleep on flights), then another day. Did 40 hours with about two hours of sleep in the middle though. My first night shift, and I couldn't get to sleep in between the two nights for worry about not getting to sleep. The next night wasn't pleasant at all.

Shayper - you went 3 days without any shut-eye at all?!!!!
