Ananova - Ukrainian hasn't slept in 20 years

File this under 'simply unbelieveable'. Even doctors have not been able to get this man to sleep. Maybe he should watch the Lifetime channel!

Imagine how many books this guy could read!! I wonder if he gets tired? This effectively adds 25-30% time to his conscious life. Assuming it is quality awake time, that is quite a bonus. Heck, I can barely go 12 hours without sleep!
