Props again to you for this 3rd attempt. Don't listen to all the haters and nay sayers. You'll be fine (which I'm sure you already know).

And just to bring it back up, He is doing because he can. Like many other things you do/try in your life. Just so you can say you did it, you accomplished a goal, you tried it, etc. It's a story you can tell someone, its something that people might give you respect for if its brought up. It's something to tell your grandkids (never to do?).

And sleep deprivation is far far safer than the 100s of other things he could be trying out. Shit I;ve known tweakers who smoke all day for like a week straight, That is drugs and sleep deprivation and they are not dead.

I just want to post in this thread before it's on the news because some dumb kid died of sleep deprivation.

nobody would be lecturing him if he was about to climb mount everest, which is equally pointless and a hundred times more dangerous.

Any way you could describe what it feels like not sleeping for a few days? I want to know what it feels like but I don't have the determination to actually try it.

I've always wanted to try this, though I usually pussy out and give up around 40ish hours, no coffee.

but climbing mount everest is an experience you can't acquire otherwise.

doing this shit can has the effect worse than the worst drug, while I doubt you get the positive side of doing drugs.

It may be healthier than doing drugs, but that doesn't make it a smart idea. There are many of us who can't have a good night's sleep even if we wanted it. There are many of us who'd probably kill to be able to get a full amount of sleep every night.

It kinda irks you after a while, no?
