I've gone about 60 hours before. Not very fun. I was taking assloads of caffiene and ephedra.

An long term episode of sleep deprevation can screw you up for life. In the end, you may find the $1000 was really not worth it. I suggest you spend the first few hours researching what negative effects this bet can have on you and then decide wether to continue to try to win it.

As far as I know there are some fairly serious health risks involved in sleep deprivation of this kind (72hrs is pretty insane).

Remember the story about the korean dude who played computer games for 50 hours straight and died of a heart attack?

This was a pretty dumb bet to take. Not only are you likely to lose, but you're risking serious health problems or even death to attempt it.

The most I did was 44 hours after a weekend of LAN games with about 70 other people from around the country (we all met at a scout hall and hooked our PCs up to several networks and went nuts). After that amount of time I was pretty out of it. 28 hours more than that seems impossible.

Good move by your friend.

In the past day I've slept a total of 4 hours. I just made a bet with my friend for 1,000$ that I can't stay awake for 72 starting at 2pm today. There's 20 100 dollar bills in a jar, my buddy is staring at me making sure I dont cheat, its gonna be a long weekend.

I'm staying away from caffiene, booze, and yellowjackets until the last leg cuz I dont want to risk the comedown.

Any advice/tactics on how to rough this one out?
