A Cornish man says he has broken the world record for sleep deprivation by staying awake for 11 days and nights. A webcam and CCTV cameras monitored him 24-hours a day. news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/cornwall/6689999.stm

11 days? I wouldn't be able to stay awake even for about 36 hours without having a little nap. Do you think he really did stay awake for 11 days?

He didn't look like a Human so maybe he has Characteristics of Horse or Polar Bear

In one word - No.

How easy is it these days to change a bit of CCTV and webcam footage or freeze frame it and copy it!!

I've been up for around 55 hours before but that was really hard - I slept and slept for 12 hours each night for a week after!!

You have to do that when you don't touch books for 11 months and the 12th one makes you pay for those
