Just over 50 hours awake - spent over a 2 day voyage with a few things to take care of once we got back. I probably slept several times whilst on my feet during this time - by the end I felt disconnected and drunk.

Sleep? Probably around 30 hours - a couple of days after the above!

Longest i've been awake is about 48 hours. Sleep i think was 24, fell asleep lunchtime, woke up the next day at lunch, thats thanks to a life threatening spate of food poisoning which i then got sent to hospital for :(

I've slept for 16 hours, usually I'd sleep 6-7 a night, but after travelling from san fran to adelaide (having to go san fran to LA, LA to sydney, sydney to adelaide including changeovers) I was utterly shattered as the old qantas plane was really impossible to sleep on, and simply collapsed and woke some time another day.
Not sure on being awake, i recall around age 14 getting German Measles and the skin itch was so intense I didn't sleep at all 2 nights in a row, this was 20 years ago, and late night TV barely existed, there was only ITV that late at night, and damn it was a boring existance staring at walls.

Was awake for about two days when I flew back from China last year, all the trains were delayed so I got home at 3am, and had a lecture at 9am so I didn't bother sleeping! Longest I've ever slept was also about 2 days, when I drunk most of a bottle of Calpol as a kid :D

I was awake for 72 hours on a cocktail of coffee, coke (cola) and pro-plus.
This was followed by a lost day where apparently I was at work but have no recollection, then 24 hours asleep.
