If you're awake from 00:00 to 8:00, you're probably a vampire ;)

* 8:00 to 24:00 (or 8:00 to 0:00)

  There is no 24:00. It goes from 23:59 to 00:00

    Of course there is. Just because it doesn't appear on common clocks doesn't mean it isn't a valid time. To quote page 15 of ISO 8601:2004 (the newest version available on libgen): > hour is represented by two digits from [00] to [24]. The representation of the hour by [24] is only allowed to indicate the end of a calendar day And Page 17: > NOTE 1 Midnight will normally be represented as [00:00] or [24:00]. > NOTE 2 The end of one calendar day [24:00] coincides with [00:00] at the start of the next calendar day, e.g. [24:00] on 12 April 1985 is the same as [00:00] on 13 April 1985. If there is no association with a date or a time interval both a) and b) represent the same local time in the 24-hour timekeeping system. > NOTE 3 The choice of representation a) or b) will depend upon any association with a date, or a time interval. Representations where [hh] has the value [24] are only preferred to represent the end of a time interval in accordance with 4.4 or recurring time interval in accordance with 4.5

      Note 3 is just wrong. 00:00 is the start of the next day. Otherwise, your previous day would now be 24hours + 1second. "representations" is just allowing people to do things incorrectly and having everyone else accept them.

        It's not an extra second, a clock might go 23:59:59 - 00:00:00 - 00:00:01 or 23:59:59 - 24:00:00 - 00:00:01. Both are equivalent and have the same meaning, with the only difference that 00:00:00 belongs to the new day and 24:00:00 belongs to the old day (despite both being the exact same moment in time). Of course clocks choose the former for simplicity, but for stating the end of an interval 24:00 can be clearer and preferred. 24:00 has no duration, it's only an instant in time. The same could be said about 11:34 of course, as long as you assume 11:34 to mean 11:34:00.0000000000000000000000 and not the interval from 11:34 to just before 11:35.

    Not that it's the same thing, but have you ever seen Japanese TV schedules? They go up to 26:30 and beyond regularly. I think this stuff's pretty arbitrary, at best.
