Yeah, the 24 hour mark is a tough point but if you make it to 36 hours your body goes into autopilot. My longest stretch was up on a thursday at 6:00 AM (I had a huge paper to finish for Friday) worked straight through till 10:00 AM Friday, printed it off, handed it in - went to classes for the day. Went out for dinner with my GF (my wife now) then worked Campus Security until 6:00 AM. By the time I was finished my shift I was on auto-pilot and played video games untill 8:00.
50 - hours straight.
It was scary how after hour 36 my body got in the groove and just kept going and I felt great for my whole security shift.

my buddy knew a guy in new york who took like 40 of them trucker caffine pills, he sat in his apartment and played his drums for something like 42 hours..... non stop

i know a guy who was up for 3-4 days after taking a "non prescription medication" he chewed the same piece of hubba bubba for 56 hours....

my best is something like 9 shifts of work in 3 days... that was on like an hour or so of broken sleep here and there.... i find that around 20 hours i start to feel like things are touching me, and i see things outta the corner of my eye that arent there....

meh just pot lol

Me I have to keep occupied if I sit down watch tv or do something remotely 'calm' i'll pass out lol

I tried an all nighter last semester and it was a VERY bad idea lol I made it the 24 hours and went to class n all but the one class I needed to be awake for we were waching a movie on the Rodney King case and then doing an assignment right after that we had like 5minutes to do. i passed out aftr the first 10minutes of the movie literally (in front row lol) the teacher woke me up once I woke up didnt knw where I was rested my head on my hand looked at the tv, he went sat down again and I put my head back down and was out in a split second lol my friend beside me woke me up when the movie was over and teacher told us to write some things down but I misunderstood that I did write that but thats not what we were supposed t obe doing cause about 5 minutes later he was like ok everyone hand your sheets in and my so called friend pulled the sheet I was supposed to be doing away and handed it in when Ihad maybe 5 blanks filled out of the like 30! lol ANd I was like huh what wait!!! lol SO never again will I pull an all nighter when it comez to school lol.

School and overnighters go hand-in-hand.
The course I was in at RRC last year was like that everyday, there were a couple of beds (futons) in class for those weak of sleep to crash for an hour or two between labs, heck we were given key to the classes and labs so we didn't have to wake security up. A couple of us did the M-F thing without sleep (the only time in 10 months we were up to date with our work) it certainly gets harder to do as you get older I don't know how long it is between 7am Monday to 1:30am Saturday, too many hours.
Drugs will certainly keep this time up, couldn't stop halucinating for 3 days once, ah high school.
