Guiness stopped doing "stay awake" records I think, and for good reason.

Staying awake more than three days is like how LSD is described in DARE and media. You start having "microsleeps" that last for a fraction of a second in the real world, but hit you with a 5-10 minute long dream.

That's why meth heads are so crazy.

It's not the meth directly, it's staying awake for days on it

Like, when a meth head is in public relatively normal and then starts screaming and acting like someone just did something they clearly didn't?

It's because they just had a micro sleep dream and can't differentiate that from reality.

Playing DDR for 144 hours had to be nuts mentally
