Again. How shitty does it feel to go without sleep for a day? Sleep deprivation gets exponentially worse over time. Imagine three years of it.

And these families know they have this gene, and know that every time they wake up, they could stay awake until they go crazy and die.

I'll take the volcano. Thanks.

They said it took about a year for them to die.

If being filmed really makes a difference though...these have got to be up there:

He then had the unfortunate Valerian skinned and his skin stuffed with straw and preserved as a trophy in the main Persian temple. Only after Persia's defeat in their last war with Rome three and a half centuries later was his skin given a cremation and burial.

I think there's a little girl that suffers from that in my town. The authorities has been fighting forever about whose responsibility it is to keep her alive.

That wikipage is gold:

2005: Kenneth Pinyan, an Enumclaw, Seattle WA. man, died of acute peritonitis after submitting to anal intercourse with a stallion. The man had done this before, though apparently this time his partner was a little too keen, and delayed several hours to visit hospital wishing to avoid official cognisance. The case may lead to the criminalization of bestiality in Washington.

The worst one I can think of is to have a part of you pinned under a boulder or something too heavy to move and be stuck there starving to death.
