I've known 3 people who gave this a serious shot. All tried different variations, and all are very bright individuals who recorded their sleep to the hour. One has a family and a business, the other two are extremely bright engineers.
2 eventually gave up on their own, as it was too intense.
1 almost killed themselves when they blacked out driving, then gave up immediately.
- himmel 17y agoInteresting point about driving.. Since I'm a driver, I wonder how many 'polyphasic' zombies I encounter out on the road? My dad has always told me that sleep deprivation is a significant cause of car wrecks. I'm sure there's research to support this if you google around. So basically I hate these people. They should do something else with their free time, instead of endangering others with their zombie-driving.
- Psyonic 17y agoNot many, I'm sure, as it's EXTREMELY hard to maintain polyphasic sleep if your life is anything close to what people call "normal." You can barely go to a movie theater. That said, driving does seem a little reckless, at least until you're absolutely sure you're safe to do so.
