Once on holiday (a very restful holiday where not a lot happened) I stayed awake for 2 nights ina row, and it never caught up with me.
As for sleep... One nasty new years I got alcohol poisoning, and slept for about 2 days with only one or two awakenings (n ot many pukings).
I think I was awake for about 36 hours then slept for about 18 hours after that. I was very ill in hospital at the time and didn't want to go to sleep incase I didn't wake up.
I discharged myself the next day and slept for 18 hours straight in my own bed.
longest sleep was around 14hrs i think and longest awake time is 3 days - twice!
i so wanna sleep it's not funny any more.
5 hrs a night at best it seems. i wake up before my alarm clock every morning and i stay up late at night to make myself tired. even tried avoiding caffeine based drinks.
3 days without sleep was done regularly at all the Donningtons, Ozzfest or Download festivals I've been to until I hit 30 and nowadays I need 8 hrs sleep just to stop me falling alseep when the bands are on
Longest sleep was 24hrs when I was ill with some kind of chinese flu
Coming up to a Crit last semester was 32 hours awake followed by 4 hours sleep followed by the aforementioned 40 hour marathon. Wasn't so bad seen as the rest of the year was doing it as well, moral support and all that
