Let this be a reminder cause I know some of you guys like to push the limits, myself included. Pretty sure I've gotten really close to this at one point.

I wonder what the actual cause of death is in these cases. I mean sure, the 80-hour gaming session could obviously be caused by sleep deprivation, maybe lack of water, etc.

But all the others... I dunno. The human body can certainly go 40 hours without food/water or sleep. It shouldn't *kill* you. So there's obviously something else involved. I just wonder what it is.

When the first expansion came out I didn't sleep for over 3 days, I was right behind what's his name from afterlife who was the world feet level 70. Sounds like Asians need to nut-up and grow a set.

Same, all I can do is laugh at the last sentence cause Rursus said it.

I'd like to know. Only time I've been at deaths door was cause trying to play long sessions with a really high fever, which is obviously bad. Besides that I've never felt really bad after long runs, and I've had some really really long runs.
