The Long Sleep...
Tony mentioned that Blue Jays pitcher who likes to get 13 to 14 hours of sleep so he can be fresh for a game... We got wondering what the long sleep world record is...
In 2017 Wyatt Shaw, a little boy in Kentucky, slept for 11 days. "doctors ran various tests on him with no conclusive explanations"
He was treated with medicine that is usually prescribed to treat seizures... Wyatt made a full recovery... and still has the world record for longest sleep (11 days)!
What about not sleeping at all? Well, the Guinness Book doesn't track that record anymore because it's super dangerous to attempt. This may come as a surprise, but it was a bunch of bonehead radio DJs who first started the "Stay Awake World Record Attempt" craze.
