Answer:
How long can you go?
The longest recorded time without sleep is approximately 264 hours, or just over 11 consecutive days. Although it’s unclear exactly how long humans can survive without sleep, it isn’t long before the effects of sleep deprivation start to show.
After only three or four nights without sleep, you can start to hallucinate. Prolonged sleep deprivation can lead to:
cognitive impairments
irritability
delusions
paranoia
psychosis
Although dying from sleep deprivation is extremely rare, it can happen.
