Tony Wright of England lasted 266 hours. This is the longest time that has been measured. But he didn’t make it into the “Guinness Book of Records”: Sleep deprivation can be so dangerous that the editors have abolished the category. That’s why Randy Gardner’s official world record of 264 hours is already over 50 years old. Randy didn’t do well with his sleep deprivation. He felt bad, couldn’t look right anymore and got memory gaps. If you don’t sleep enough, you can even get hallucinations. So he sees or hears things that aren’t there. If you forcibly prevent a person from sleeping, it is even considered torture.
