Sadly not a challenge or a fun thread.

For various reasons i woke up at 1am this morning and as such havent been able to get back to sleep. Now i start a 12 hour shift at work come 6pm so by the time i get home tomorrow morning it will have been 30 hours since i last slept.

Is this possible or more likely will i fall asleep at my desk and what options do i have for keeping myself awake?

I stayed awake for 28 hours pretty comfortably when I went to an all night gig. struggled a bit at about 6am but some food and a couple of cups of tea kept me going.

oh course it can be done

just keep occupied. I've done it severaltimes due to work.

i used to do it about once a week, but that was under the influence of class a drugs.

30 hrs wont be too bad. :thup:

Yup, I can't sleep on coaches or at least couldn't till recently and once stayed awake three days solidly on a school trip to germany as I couldn't sleep on the way there or back

yeah, piece of p**s.

Think the world record is over 200 hours.

Yep, 30 hours is easy enough, and if you keep yourself fed there'll be no problems.
