    I appreciate your answers. I'd just like to know if it would be really dangerous to try not sleeping for a few days? I'm talking less than a week here.

    Its not dangerous to miss a few night sleep in the long term but I wouldn't think you'd be safe to go out if you've not slept for a week. I doubt you could drive a car safely or even cross the street.

    When I was at uni and 18 I used to go for weekdays without sleep, then sleep during the day at the weekends. Just seemed to be how my life worked. These days though I struggle with going 48 hours without sleep.

    Longest has been about 50 hours, on the way back from a holiday in Florida many years ago.
