. Others including Finland’s Toimi Soini and the UK’s Maureen Weston and Tony Wright have since claimed to have beaten this time, but none of them were studied as closely as Gardner. Without close monitoring it is difficult to verify these claims.
The effects of sleep deprivation are well documented, with symptoms including irritability, taking longer to make decisions, and cognitive rigidity, in which individuals can only think about things in one fixed way. Other side effects include loss of motivation, higher blood pressure, paranoia, memory issues, mood changes, visual problems, hallucinations and difficulties with speech.
Gardner’s record was observed by William Dement, who noted that Gardner experienced many of these side-effects, including an impairment of his cognitive and sensory abilities. He didn’t consume any stimulant drugs to keep himself awake, but did have people around him to distract him from falling asleep.
When the experiment ended, Gardner had been awake for 264 hours and 25 minutes. He then had 14 hours of sleep before waking up to use the bathroom.We have no verified examples of anyone staying awake longer than Gardner, and we still don’t know for sure how long human beings can survive without sleep.
