I managed to stay awake for 4 days in my college era, and I never recovered completely. The fourth day at the end of the semester I came home limping, crumbled down in my porch and fell unconscious until my neighbor saw me and helped me. The worst part was that other neighbors from my street saw me lying on the floor in my porch, with the door of my house wide open for like 3 hours and nobody thought it was unusual or dangerous for me. Zero shit given.
Had something similar at work, I went 4 days without sleep do to not only working overtime do to a storm heading our way but also I have sleep issues, at work I started to see the shadows move and I seemed to have told one of my managers about it but I don't remember doing that, I also somehow woke up at home but to me I just remember talking with someone and walking up at home, no one at my home brought me from work and found out later that the manager figured something was wrong with me and brought me home themselves. I was embarrassed for a few days and took a while to fully recover but after that my workplace made sure I took a few days off and breaks afterwards to make sure I was rested till I fully recovered.
Those are some CRAPPY neighbors! What a shite living situation! Everywhere I've lived in the last 20+ years, my neighbors would lay down their lives for you. That has been true my entire 65 years, actually.

The fact that they didn’t do more recovery was ridiculous. You need nearly a week to recover fully from 48 hours. The fact they’re going 5 days after 1 recovery is legitimately impossible. They will micro sleep. They will “drone” (fall asleep while moving). Exercise will not prevent this. Even Navy Seals aren’t **truly** awake for all of hell week because of this.
Some of the scenes in the movie definitely look like they're droning, the vision on the screen tunnels and the person is just functioning by rote or allowing people to guide them without acknowledging what's going on, so apparently that's good enough.
@@Iamheresometimes Nope, as someone who has lived in the same house as 4 tweakers (slang for meth users), I've seen them nod off to sleep and they don't know they're doing it.
The hallucinations and dissociation that come with sleep deprivation are the scariest imo, you just wanna get back to normal again but it's too hard to fall asleep, even when you're exhausted. I hate having sleeping problems.
I have somniphobia and Oneirophobia from PTSD I'm extremely lucky the most my hallucinating has given me was a chat with my dead dog I don't tend to leave my house when these things happen so i don't cause issues for anyone but my doctor. But now I'm medicated I can actually sleep again and not dream. I missed sleeping even if my sleep schedule is screwed right up lol
Yeah I'm honestly surprised they didn't just give it to people in active military service. Friend of mine served in Afghanistan and he was REGULARLY awake for 2 days straight and apparently it isn't all that uncommon in military service.
Longest I’ve ever stayed up was about 12 hours during some school break or smt, long story short I sat on my couch in my game room for a couple secs and woke up hours later very confused
If physical activity increases, why let them stay awake for days? Tired people will propably not do much activity and the longer they are awake the slower that stuff gets produced. Short solution for this movie would be pay people to do heavy sports for 2-3 hours with a chip and you would have gained more in a smaller time window with less money spent.
Yeah, literally paid to get fit. There would be hordes of people signing up just for a few bucks. There are so many different better ways to collect that q stuff that the whole setup is batshit insane.
For the record, the highest recorded amount of time anyone has ever stayed up was like 11-14 days, and then the guy who did was basically insane at the end, then fell asleep and was pretty much fine. As for what happens once a human goes past those 14 days? Unexplainable organ failure or death.
Sleep is a sorta repair mode for the body, and not engaging in it for long enough and the organs fail. Its alot like driving a car without changing the oil ever, even if it doesn't matter much if your a little bit over on your oil change schedule, not doing it at all will eventually destroy the engine. And being over to due milage every time will also have negative effects, people who dont have a decent sleep schedule often dont live as long as those who do, and find them selves with several side effects.
Ok so I’m hesitating writing this comment please no hatred I just want to give my experience for accuracy I used to be addicted to opiates and I thankfully was arrested and spent two weeks in jail coming off of it (I’ve been clean since thank god) during withdrawals I had severe restless leg syndrome and other symptoms and I literally stayed awake walking around the common area of the jail dorm for exactly 15 days and by the end I was hallucinating, trying to physically knock myself out against a wall, talking to myself along with other things obviously no help was given due to my situation but I finally fell asleep the morning of the 15th day slept for maybe 3 hours and was dehydrated and delirious when I woke up but in other words fine after that my withdrawals had subsided and I went back into normal sleeping patterns but it was crazy

@@craviel7360 the thing is that caffeine doesn't "remove sleep", it just delays it. After more than one day the caffeine would wear off and you would face much more drowsiness
Actually with that AED you have to stop CPR while it analyzes. The AED tells you what to do and though most times, yes you want to continue CPR, if you touch the person while it’s analyzing you’ll keep it from working probably. So for being so sleep deprived, they did really well with cpr
I’d have to agree, getting a bunch of people to do a level 1 Qratonin extract would be way better than a few to do level 2 and 3. Not to mention, couldn’t they all just keep doing level 1?

Scientist here: she could also just synthesize this in a lab (whether it is a protein or compound). And if she came public she would have gotten funding and been able to start a lab/company making and selling this. So instead of being arrested she could have been rich lol.
18:45 Insulating yourself from the floor only helps if the power is coming from a mains source or where one terminal is connected to earth. With the power supply completely contained within the chip this wouldn't help at all. Since the explanation is that the chip "short-circuiting" causes death I don't think it would by electric shock to the heart as it would require at least 70V of 30mA to achieve and the electricity would mostly take the shortest path from it's terminals travelling through the flesh in your neck the short distance to the other side of the battery. The reason why electric shocks are fatal is it usually involves someone touching something live, causing the current to travel down the arm, across the chest and out through the feet or other arm to "ground/earth" If I had to guess I'd say the death is caused by the overloading of a battery/capacitor within the chip, the detonation of which can be quite powerful and if injected into the neck could cause a rupture to the spinal column or an important artery. The chip could be designed that one end acts as a "blow off" so the force is directed away from the precious Qratonin.
wait...2 days? That's it? That is child's play for a gamer with a backlog. 5 days in will be tougher but I have done 4 days before. 8+ days? Nope. I like your idea of repeating level 1 again and again.
Ok let me just say THIS about THAT! I love your videos! Because of your channel i have stepped outside my comfort zone and watched things i NEVER would have even thought about watching ! Especially Asian films like this, they are SUPER AWESOME!!! The cinematography, the actors and writting is brilliant! Thank you for all your hard work and stellar videos you got a new sub for life!
I haven't seen anyone mention this yet, but... if Jane's countdown reached 0 before she was revived, but her heart successfully restarted anyway, doesn't that imply the chip wouldn't have actually killed them in the first place? If cardiac arrest counted as being "asleep" and she was "asleep" for longer than 60 seconds, then the chip should have shorted out regardless. Which either means that a) cardiac arrest DOESN'T count as "sleep" and the countdown was only triggered so Dr. Nichcha would know they needed reviving b) the chip DOES short out after over 60 seconds of "sleep" but the short circuit isn't actually fatal, Dr. Nichcha just wanted them to think it was so she didn't lose out on any qratonin production c) the chip doesn't even short circuit at all under those circumstances, she just put that in there to force the subjects to produce qratonin faster Any of those seem stupid and counterproductive, but that can describe pretty much everything Dr. Nichcha did.
There's one thing I don't understand about the latter part. The actor claimed he'd remove June's chip if Jane gets the other three to sign up for lv 3 with her. But then he didn't remove June's chip anyways? And they didn't complain?
I want to say June's was removed and she was just there for moral support. Especially since she wasn't showing any signs of hallucination or weird behavior like everyone else. But she's still wearing the Deep watch. Her being present for the final part of the movie seemed like an afterthought entirely; she's always tucked behind the main 4 and gets no additional attention outside of Jane's hallucinations.
As a Thai I can confirm, it's hot af here but somehow it got really cold around the start of April. Btw, it is currently 2am and I'm watching this.. how ironic
My main question is why not install some sort of loud, blaring, alarm to wake them up if they are sleeping or about too? I feel like that would be the easiest way to avoid certain death of a donor and a massive lawsuit and jail time.
I mean all the doctor had to do was keep it at level 1. At that level you could easily get a ton of people wanting to do it for that money as it's not hard staying awake 2 days in a row, and some would happily make it their job to keep doing it over and over.
When I was in the Navy I had times where I was awake for over 48 hours and it was enough to make me hallucinate. I can't imagine being awake any longer than that.

Finally! A death game I can actually survive in! Thank you chronic Insomnia!! *cries in severe sleep deprivation that had lasted for the past 18+ years* 😭
@@marcuspoosz2190 Those of us with chronic insomnia often try sleeping pills first lol. Name it, we’ve tried it. Sleeping pills, CBT, melatonin, meditation, the list goes on.
Ok, right off the bad, here are Jane's biggest mistakes. 1st Mistake - Going to med school. 2nd Mistake - Accepting ANY offer with a German medical company! 3rd Mistake - NOT reading the Terms and Conditions!
It seems like there were a lot of plot holes in this movie. I know it's easy to hit a limit of sleep deprivation where the brain just shuts down. While in the military, during boot camp I was so tired I actually fell asleep while marching to breakfast lol. I ended up walking into the back of the dude in front of me. It's crazy how it feels like our conscious is in control of things till all the sudden the body's dealing with something it doesn't know how to handle. Thank you for the upload!
Movie didn't have nearly enough eating. That's pretty much the first thing your body tells you to do when you're sleep deprived as the extra calories can help fuel you in the short-term. Not even something you consciously do. You just start snacking more and get hungry more. But doing it on purpose would have been helpful too. Also they were doing this for only ~$3,000, ~$15,000 and ~$30,000. Definitely not worth what they're being asked to do.
Disclaimer: I haven't actually seen the movie, so let me know if it addresses this. The bigger problem with Weimar is one that the doctor would be well aware: such a chip would never pass an ethics board, and I think Weimar as a company never even existed. Any medical procedure/study has significant ethical reviews that it has to pass before being allowed to go public, and harvesting a hitherto unknown material from humans would require significant study to prove that the human brain doesn't already have a need for it and that removing it does not cause any long term harm. In addition, any chip would have to pass 3rd party review to demonstrate that it wasn't harming participants. Modern medicine is extremely aware of the harm such trials can do, and any review board worth its salt would never allow the chip to be implanted without serious study ahead of time. Ironically, the doctor's love interest probably was aware of the problems of getting test subjects, which would lead him to have to self-experiment (which is a lot easier to pull off). I think a more reasonable explanation is that the doctor has made some shady dealings (including probably embezzling from the university) to get extra money for some tech, or she just stolen the tech from the university. From that point, she can use her position as an instructor to get any asset she needs. For example, she needs a UI that tracks chip progress? Get a student majoring in computer tech to write up a basic UI for extra credit. She needs real-looking paperwork? there are plenty of students that could be assigned to draft "example" documents and branding. There is every chance that she just has a spare lab set up in a medical complex for when she's operating as a doctor (as opposed to an instructor) that could house the "tests." The German was probably the only person the "Weimar" actually employed, and he knew that the main character trying to pull her sister meant the entire gig was up. I would suggest that he was probably paid by the installation, meaning even if the sister being pulled happened, he'd get paid for a handful of level 3s. In short, the doctor cannot "solve" her problem or get volunteers to give up their chemical by going public with any part of her deal. In addition, if the police were called, Weimar probably never really existed, and any evidence could be returned to the university/explained away as university assets. Yeah, the chip itself and smart watches are big giveaways, but good luck getting student allegations to stick without any evidence that the German existed or that the university doctor was ever involved.
To be honest, I would be willing to pass the less-than-ethical practice. What I won't let pass is that level 2 treatment even exist. Level 1 already risky enough and should be done under heavy observation rather than just letting them go outside. Set aside the moral complication, "cleaning" things up if something goes the wayside would be way harder if your test subject not monitored at all time.
I have horrible insomnia and once ended up staying awake for 8 days simply because I couldn't sleep even with the help of various sleep meds. It's no joke. You start losing your mind and begin to feel like a strung out zombie. Then the shadow people and weird voices start... But if I was a normal person who needed to stay up for days on end or die, I'd just hit the sketchy part of town to find little baggies of help
Caffeine could be a really bad idea for some people. In a majority of the population, caffeine acts as a stimulant, but in others(especially those with ADHD or autism) caffeine has different effects, such as making someone more focused but with no increase in energy or even making someone sleepy. A better, more reliable and sustained solution might be meditation or lying in bed with a very loud alarm to prevent sleep because that does mimic the effects of sleep to a lesser degree, or playing video games designed to be addictive, which keeps your attention and thus makes you ignore the signals your body gives you to sleep.
Fun fact: pericardial thumps occasionally work. I had a patient flatline and CPR was looking like a formality, so I gave him a good Donkey Kong to the chest and his heart kicked back into gear-for about 15 seconds. He was in his mid 80’s and so far gone it was understood by all the doctors and nurses in the room he wasn’t making it, hell he flatlined twice on the way to the hospital from the nursing home.
Frankly, I don't think I'd ever sign up for this. If I did I would've read those terms and conditions VERY carefully before I agreed to ANY medical guinea pig shit. Reading the terms and conditions there's little chance I'd go forward. But if I did I'd probably ask if I could repeat doing level one for the pay out, barely any risk and nice reward. After Level 1, I am calling it quits. If I couldn't repeat I'd be off the damn no sleep train with my 100,000 and my life.
3,000 not 100,000. It was stating the local money amount while he was stating the US equivalent. Still though. $3,000 for staying up 2 days is pretty good, though I don't think I could do it. I need more sleep than most other people. Even after trying specifically, I never manage more than 40 hours.
@@volcanolord100 Yeah, $3,000 in two days is $1,500 per day, which is $62 dollars per hour. There are 104 Fridays and Saturdays in a year, multiply that by $1,500 and you get around $154,000 per year if you do this consistently. You do this and you get 3x more than the average wage (per year) by doing nothing but stay awake. If you also exercise you could probably get those 2 days down to a couple hours, considering how fast they got their level two meter filled up. That's $3,000 for around 8 hours (assuming you take breaks). You could probably do this (with the exercise) and make absolute bank out of it, although this is still assuming they let you do level one several times.
@@demetria-n right, but I was responding to the last part of the OP's post. "If I couldn't repeat, I'd get off the damn no sleep train with my 100,000 and my life."
I think you hit a good strategy on the head. Take a week or so off between levels after you complete one. If I am up for 3 days straight, then I will want 1 week to recoup. Plus, I just got $3000. I am not in immediate need of money for a while week. Other people it on the head too. If you can, go to a casino. That would be busy and it would be easy to lose track of time. I recall "hacking" my brain once in college and staying up for 3 days straight. The key was to never see the sun go up or down. It was also to never see what time it was. It is significantly easiest to not sleep when you do not have a sense of time. Even on day 3 I was not feeling any tiredness.
"She needs the money, so just play along." I mean if you go to a Court with this info and thankfully survive, just sue Miller and his company 100x more than the trial's pay LOL
I would love to see you do the 2007 movie the invasion ! I feel like you would point out so many loop holes in that movie as well as good ways to survive the story
Reminds me of when I only got 2-3 hours of sleep a night for a full *week* during college finals. By Friday, my brain felt like mush and my only goal Saturday was to sleep all day!
My personal record is 63 hours straight, i got a cold and my nose got full and the constant unpleasant breathing and a plane travel got me to 63 hours. I lost nearly all cognitive and judment abilities, i was like a human with the IQ of a wet blanket lmao
This made me so grateful for the ability to sleep bruh. Like I've honestly been taking sleep for granted. There are people that actually can't fall asleep and I really, really feel for them.
Another, not-very ethical way to stay awake that long would be taking ADHD medications like Adderall or Vyvanse since they're amphetamines that can help suppress sleep. Meth would do the same thing (since it's rather similar to ADHD meds) though whether you're willing to possibly screw up your life with a meth addiction just for those couple extra wing wangs is debatable at best. If your life depended on it though, meth is the way to go.
Yea, I instantly thought about the ADHD meds I'm prescribed being a big help in something like this lol, at least up til most likely Level 2 for me. Thinking about someone with no ADHD or attention issues taking them for this tho, would def have issues & more lasting effects overall like you said true, I didnt even think about how they're addictive for others
Phase 1: Child's play. That's an incredibly easy (and for me fairly normal/regular) feat. Phase 2: Also easy, but that 5th day is going to suck. If you get a few days of sleep ahead of time, it's very doable. I'm gonna level with you, if these kids can drink caffeine or energy drinks to complete the task, there's no reason they can't use other stimulants. Before you start phase 2, make sure you get a few days worth of sleep and then get your hands on an eight ball of meth. Its chemically almost identical to Adderall and super cheap. Plus, having a low tolerance will be a huge benefit. If someone is willing to give you $15,000 for staying awake 5 days in a row, you can worry about the miniscule consequences later. You could even just find someone selling off their ADHD script if you're worried about illicit drugs (it's a college campus, after all; everyone has it or knows someone who does and that shit is cheap and effective ) Regardless of all that, you're going to start having "waking dreams" (aka highly vivid hallucinations) around day 3-4. Your best bet would be to have someone you trust (or a couple of them so they can work in shifts) with you to talk some sense into you about whether or not you're hallucinating or seeing something real. Just about every tweaker or stimulant abuser knows what it's like to stay up for a week on a bender. Personally (and I am by no means suggesting or condoning this because I went through rehab 3 times before finally getting clean from heroin and meth just over 5 years ago) I made it 15 full days without sleep. That includes about 11 full days of the most vivid, bizarre, paranoid delusional hallucinations I've ever experienced. It took me nearly 3 months to fully recover. But the point of saying all that is that this task being presented in the film is completely doable for even the weakest among us, which I would consider myself during that time of my life.
Actually, if I remember correctly (I haven't done any prior researching just saw it from an onlyjayus video) animals can't delay sleep so it would be barely effective at all if any. Plus their smaller size (unless we're talking farm animals or something like that) means it would probably take years to get the equivalent of a human staying up for 8 days. Now this is just a theory I could very much be completely wrong so if anyone wants they could theorize as well in the replies.
If I'm being honest, I could do level 1 any time I wanted (considering that I do level 1's worth of sleep deprivation almost every single day), level 2 would probably take half a week of prep, but considering I can stay up 4 days straight after only 6 hours of sleep... I'm pretty sure I'll be fine. Level 3 is where I'd worry for my life, but I'm convinced with two weeks of good prep I could do it if only by the skin of my teeth (I go a week with no sleep at least twice a year, I know how to stay awake for obscene amounts of time). Although I'd never go beyond level 2 if I could help it, and staying at level 1 would be by far the best thing for me and the company. My sleep schedule doesn't change, they get an extremely steady supply, and I make money off of just living life normally.
*Literally taking a sip of wine* 5:12 "If you're participating in Deep, you'll probably want to avoid wine" *touches the back of my head to make sure I don't have a chip* "Oh thank god!" *continues to drink wine whiles watching*
anyways participating in legal clinical trials can get you some good money. in college oomf bought a cheap used car off of doing studies for the business school. (they usually just sit and make you talk w other participants)

The hallucinations and dissociation that come with sleep deprivation are the scariest imo, you just wanna get back to normal again but it's too hard to fall asleep, even when you're exhausted. I hate having sleeping problems.
Can melatonin help you?
I have somniphobia and Oneirophobia from PTSD I'm extremely lucky the most my hallucinating has given me was a chat with my dead dog I don't tend to leave my house when these things happen so i don't cause issues for anyone but my doctor.

I spent just over 55 hours up strait in the military, at the end I was fully hallucinating, and it ended when I fell asleep pooping.
Yeah I'm honestly surprised they didn't just give it to people in active military service. Friend of mine served in Afghanistan and he was REGULARLY awake for 2 days straight and apparently it isn't all that uncommon in military service.

Bro we sleep in weird ass places in the military. In basic training people in my division used to fall asleep while we marched.
If physical activity increases, why let them stay awake for days? Tired people will propably not do much activity and the longer they are awake the slower that stuff gets produced.
Short solution for this movie would be pay people to do heavy sports for 2-3 hours with a chip and you would have gained more in a smaller time window with less money spent.

@@GiantProcrastiNation social media gym rats would eat that up
For the record, the highest recorded amount of time anyone has ever stayed up was like 11-14 days, and then the guy who did was basically insane at the end, then fell asleep and was pretty much fine.
As for what happens once a human goes past those 14 days? Unexplainable organ failure or death.
I don’t think it’s unexplainable, the reason is you put so much strain on your body that it couldn’t keep up
unexplainable as in the body's condition was fine, but they still passed away
Sleep is a sorta repair mode for the body, and not engaging in it for long enough and the organs fail. Its alot like driving a car without changing the oil ever, even if it doesn't matter much if your a little bit over on your oil change schedule, not doing it at all will eventually destroy the engine. And being over to due milage every time will also have negative effects, people who dont have a decent sleep schedule often dont live as long as those who do, and find them selves with several side effects.
Ok so I’m hesitating writing this comment please no hatred I just want to give my experience for accuracy I used to be addicted to opiates and I thankfully was arrested and spent two weeks in jail coming off of it (I’ve been clean since thank god) during withdrawals I had severe restless leg syndrome and other symptoms and I literally stayed awake walking around the common area of the jail dorm for exactly 15 days and by the end I was hallucinating, trying to physically knock myself out against a wall, talking to myself along with other things obviously no help was given due to my situation but I finally fell asleep the morning of the 15th day slept for maybe 3 hours and was dehydrated and delirious when I woke up but in other words fine after that my withdrawals had subsided and I went back into normal sleeping patterns but it was crazy

Actually with that AED you have to stop CPR while it analyzes. The AED tells you what to do and though most times, yes you want to continue CPR, if you touch the person while it’s analyzing you’ll keep it from working probably. So for being so sleep deprived, they did really well with cpr
I was just coming to say this lol.
Yeah they even continued compressions while getting the aed ready and the pads on. It looks like proper cpr
I’d have to agree, getting a bunch of people to do a level 1 Qratonin extract would be way better than a few to do level 2 and 3. Not to mention, couldn’t they all just keep doing level 1?

Scientist here: she could also just synthesize this in a lab (whether it is a protein or compound). And if she came public she would have gotten funding and been able to start a lab/company making and selling this. So instead of being arrested she could have been rich lol.
She was already disgustingly rich considering the amount of money she was giving away to god knows how many people.
18:45 Insulating yourself from the floor only helps if the power is coming from a mains source or where one terminal is connected to earth. With the power supply completely contained within the chip this wouldn't help at all.
Since the explanation is that the chip "short-circuiting" causes death I don't think it would by electric shock to the heart as it would require at least 70V of 30mA to achieve and the electricity would mostly take the shortest path from it's terminals travelling through the flesh in your neck the short distance to the other side of the battery. The reason why electric shocks are fatal is it usually involves someone touching something live, causing the current to travel down the arm, across the chest and out through the feet or other arm to "ground/earth"
If I had to guess I'd say the death is caused by the overloading of a battery/capacitor within the chip, the detonation of which can be quite powerful and if injected into the neck could cause a rupture to the spinal column or an important artery. The chip could be designed that one end acts as a "blow off" so the force is directed away from the precious Qratonin.
It might give you a seizure by interrupting the signals in your brain.

Especially Asian films like this, they are SUPER AWESOME!!! The cinematography, the actors and writting is brilliant! Thank you for all your hard work and stellar videos you got a new sub for life!
I haven't seen anyone mention this yet, but... if Jane's countdown reached 0 before she was revived, but her heart successfully restarted anyway, doesn't that imply the chip wouldn't have actually killed them in the first place? If cardiac arrest counted as being "asleep" and she was "asleep" for longer than 60 seconds, then the chip should have shorted out regardless. Which either means that
a) cardiac arrest DOESN'T count as "sleep" and the countdown was only triggered so Dr. Nichcha would know they needed reviving
b) the chip DOES short out after over 60 seconds of "sleep" but the short circuit isn't actually fatal, Dr. Nichcha just wanted them to think it was so she didn't lose out on any qratonin production
c) the chip doesn't even short circuit at all under those circumstances, she just put that in there to force the subjects to produce qratonin faster
Any of those seem stupid and counterproductive, but that can describe pretty much everything Dr. Nichcha did.
You never take the suspicious cash its always a bad idea
I stumbled across your channel about a day ago and I've been binge watching ever since this is some S tier stuff
There's one thing I don't understand about the latter part. The actor claimed he'd remove June's chip if Jane gets the other three to sign up for lv 3 with her. But then he didn't remove June's chip anyways? And they didn't complain?
I want to say June's was removed and she was just there for moral support. Especially since she wasn't showing any signs of hallucination or weird behavior like everyone else. But she's still wearing the Deep watch. Her being present for the final part of the movie seemed like an afterthought entirely; she's always tucked behind the main 4 and gets no additional attention outside of Jane's hallucinations.

I mean all the doctor had to do was keep it at level 1. At that level you could easily get a ton of people wanting to do it for that money as it's not hard staying awake 2 days in a row, and some would happily make it their job to keep doing it over and over.
When I was in the Navy I had times where I was awake for over 48 hours and it was enough to make me hallucinate. I can't imagine being awake any longer than that.

It seems like there were a lot of plot holes in this movie. I know it's easy to hit a limit of sleep deprivation where the brain just shuts down. While in the military, during boot camp I was so tired I actually fell asleep while marching to breakfast lol. I ended up walking into the back of the dude in front of me. It's crazy how it feels like our conscious is in control of things till all the sudden the body's dealing with something it doesn't know how to handle. Thank you for the upload!
Movie didn't have nearly enough eating. That's pretty much the first thing your body tells you to do when you're sleep deprived as the extra calories can help fuel you in the short-term. Not even something you consciously do. You just start snacking more and get hungry more. But doing it on purpose would have been helpful too.
Also they were doing this for only ~$3,000, ~$15,000 and ~$30,000. Definitely not worth what they're being asked to do.
Lets go Nerd with another banger video drop!
I’d be careful with “stun guns or tasers” ! May damage or cause the chip to “short” !

coincidence?
Disclaimer: I haven't actually seen the movie, so let me know if it addresses this.
The bigger problem with Weimar is one that the doctor would be well aware: such a chip would never pass an ethics board, and I think Weimar as a company never even existed. Any medical procedure/study has significant ethical reviews that it has to pass before being allowed to go public, and harvesting a hitherto unknown material from humans would require significant study to prove that the human brain doesn't already have a need for it and that removing it does not cause any long term harm. In addition, any chip would have to pass 3rd party review to demonstrate that it wasn't harming participants. Modern medicine is extremely aware of the harm such trials can do, and any review board worth its salt would never allow the chip to be implanted without serious study ahead of time. Ironically, the doctor's love interest probably was aware of the problems of getting test subjects, which would lead him to have to self-experiment (which is a lot easier to pull off).
I think a more reasonable explanation is that the doctor has made some shady dealings (including probably embezzling from the university) to get extra money for some tech, or she just stolen the tech from the university. From that point, she can use her position as an instructor to get any asset she needs. For example, she needs a UI that tracks chip progress? Get a student majoring in computer tech to write up a basic UI for extra credit. She needs real-looking paperwork? there are plenty of students that could be assigned to draft "example" documents and branding. There is every chance that she just has a spare lab set up in a medical complex for when she's operating as a doctor (as opposed to an instructor) that could house the "tests." The German was probably the only person the "Weimar" actually employed, and he knew that the main character trying to pull her sister meant the entire gig was up. I would suggest that he was probably paid by the installation, meaning even if the sister being pulled happened, he'd get paid for a handful of level 3s.
In short, the doctor cannot "solve" her problem or get volunteers to give up their chemical by going public with any part of her deal. In addition, if the police were called, Weimar probably never really existed, and any evidence could be returned to the university/explained away as university assets. Yeah, the chip itself and smart watches are big giveaways, but good luck getting student allegations to stick without any evidence that the German existed or that the university doctor was ever involved.
Holy shit how long did it take you to write that
@@kingdomofheavenisatyehand Few minutes...
@@tsnap4 that would take me atleast 5 hours to type that lol..
To be honest, I would be willing to pass the less-than-ethical practice. What I won't let pass is that level 2 treatment even exist. Level 1 already risky enough and should be done under heavy observation rather than just letting them go outside. Set aside the moral complication, "cleaning" things up if something goes the wayside would be way harder if your test subject not monitored at all time.
I have horrible insomnia and once ended up staying awake for 8 days simply because I couldn't sleep even with the help of various sleep meds. It's no joke. You start losing your mind and begin to feel like a strung out zombie. Then the shadow people and weird voices start... But if I was a normal person who needed to stay up for days on end or die, I'd just hit the sketchy part of town to find little baggies of help
Caffeine could be a really bad idea for some people. In a majority of the population, caffeine acts as a stimulant, but in others(especially those with ADHD or autism) caffeine has different effects, such as making someone more focused but with no increase in energy or even making someone sleepy. A better, more reliable and sustained solution might be meditation or lying in bed with a very loud alarm to prevent sleep because that does mimic the effects of sleep to a lesser degree, or playing video games designed to be addictive, which keeps your attention and thus makes you ignore the signals your body gives you to sleep.
Oh no, coffee makes me sleepy...haha I'm in danger 🤪
Fun fact: pericardial thumps occasionally work. I had a patient flatline and CPR was looking like a formality, so I gave him a good Donkey Kong to the chest and his heart kicked back into gear-for about 15 seconds. He was in his mid 80’s and so far gone it was understood by all the doctors and nurses in the room he wasn’t making it, hell he flatlined twice on the way to the hospital from the nursing home.
Awww, I hated working in the ER its too much for me, makes me sad...plus it stinks lol thats why I chose to do a PhD instead
Frankly, I don't think I'd ever sign up for this. If I did I would've read those terms and conditions VERY carefully before I agreed to ANY medical guinea pig shit. Reading the terms and conditions there's little chance I'd go forward. But if I did I'd probably ask if I could repeat doing level one for the pay out, barely any risk and nice reward. After Level 1, I am calling it quits. If I couldn't repeat I'd be off the damn no sleep train with my 100,000 and my life.
Ik lol 100K in just 2 days sounds good enough to me
3,000 not 100,000. It was stating the local money amount while he was stating the US equivalent. Still though. $3,000 for staying up 2 days is pretty good, though I don't think I could do it. I need more sleep than most other people. Even after trying specifically, I never manage more than 40 hours.
Lol, half the world didn't ask during the last massive medical experiment... just got themselves a jab...
@@volcanolord100 Yeah, $3,000 in two days is $1,500 per day, which is $62 dollars per hour. There are 104 Fridays and Saturdays in a year, multiply that by $1,500 and you get around $154,000 per year if you do this consistently. You do this and you get 3x more than the average wage (per year) by doing nothing but stay awake. If you also exercise you could probably get those 2 days down to a couple hours, considering how fast they got their level two meter filled up. That's $3,000 for around 8 hours (assuming you take breaks). You could probably do this (with the exercise) and make absolute bank out of it, although this is still assuming they let you do level one several times.

I think you hit a good strategy on the head. Take a week or so off between levels after you complete one.
If I am up for 3 days straight, then I will want 1 week to recoup. Plus, I just got $3000. I am not in immediate need of money for a while week.
Other people it on the head too. If you can, go to a casino. That would be busy and it would be easy to lose track of time.
I recall "hacking" my brain once in college and staying up for 3 days straight. The key was to never see the sun go up or down. It was also to never see what time it was. It is significantly easiest to not sleep when you do not have a sense of time. Even on day 3 I was not feeling any tiredness.
Adding: Avoid staring at technology for long periods of time. It can have effects on the eyes to tire them out.
Or at least that's my experience.

Thanks Nerd Explains
Another, not-very ethical way to stay awake that long would be taking ADHD medications like Adderall or Vyvanse since they're amphetamines that can help suppress sleep. Meth would do the same thing (since it's rather similar to ADHD meds) though whether you're willing to possibly screw up your life with a meth addiction just for those couple extra wing wangs is debatable at best. If your life depended on it though, meth is the way to go.
Yea, I instantly thought about the ADHD meds I'm prescribed being a big help in something like this lol, at least up til most likely Level 2 for me. Thinking about someone with no ADHD or attention issues taking them for this tho, would def have issues & more lasting effects overall like you said true, I didnt even think about how they're addictive for others
"getting a ton of ice" was honestly the best advice in this one.
Phase 1: Child's play. That's an incredibly easy (and for me fairly normal/regular) feat.
Phase 2: Also easy, but that 5th day is going to suck. If you get a few days of sleep ahead of time, it's very doable.
I'm gonna level with you, if these kids can drink caffeine or energy drinks to complete the task, there's no reason they can't use other stimulants. Before you start phase 2, make sure you get a few days worth of sleep and then get your hands on an eight ball of meth. Its chemically almost identical to Adderall and super cheap. Plus, having a low tolerance will be a huge benefit. If someone is willing to give you $15,000 for staying awake 5 days in a row, you can worry about the miniscule consequences later. You could even just find someone selling off their ADHD script if you're worried about illicit drugs (it's a college campus, after all; everyone has it or knows someone who does and that shit is cheap and effective )
Regardless of all that, you're going to start having "waking dreams" (aka highly vivid hallucinations) around day 3-4. Your best bet would be to have someone you trust (or a couple of them so they can work in shifts) with you to talk some sense into you about whether or not you're hallucinating or seeing something real. Just about every tweaker or stimulant abuser knows what it's like to stay up for a week on a bender. Personally (and I am by no means suggesting or condoning this because I went through rehab 3 times before finally getting clean from heroin and meth just over 5 years ago) I made it 15 full days without sleep. That includes about 11 full days of the most vivid, bizarre, paranoid delusional hallucinations I've ever experienced. It took me nearly 3 months to fully recover. But the point of saying all that is that this task being presented in the film is completely doable for even the weakest among us, which I would consider myself during that time of my life.
15 DANG DAYS?! BROTHER YOU WOULD BE DEAD 😭
Me who’s watching this in the middle of the night because I can’t sleep
Actually, if I remember correctly (I haven't done any prior researching just saw it from an onlyjayus video) animals can't delay sleep so it would be barely effective at all if any. Plus their smaller size (unless we're talking farm animals or something like that) means it would probably take years to get the equivalent of a human staying up for 8 days. Now this is just a theory I could very much be completely wrong so if anyone wants they could theorize as well in the replies.
Thanks for the videos so often
If I'm being honest, I could do level 1 any time I wanted (considering that I do level 1's worth of sleep deprivation almost every single day), level 2 would probably take half a week of prep, but considering I can stay up 4 days straight after only 6 hours of sleep... I'm pretty sure I'll be fine. Level 3 is where I'd worry for my life, but I'm convinced with two weeks of good prep I could do it if only by the skin of my teeth (I go a week with no sleep at least twice a year, I know how to stay awake for obscene amounts of time). Although I'd never go beyond level 2 if I could help it, and staying at level 1 would be by far the best thing for me and the company. My sleep schedule doesn't change, they get an extremely steady supply, and I make money off of just living life normally.
Longest I’ve gone without sleep is about 5 days. I could prob get through stage 2 if my life was on the line hahaha
Longest I’ve done was almost a week and I legit thought I was going to die. Maybe that was a bad idea…
How the hell.
