experiment, i was asleep for 20 of them it took a lot of recovery. >> what surprised you most about the whole thing? >> there were a number of things. number one, i think that it was even possible that i could get through this 50 hours but the other thing, and this is really interesting was that i felt as if even during t the end of the experiment, as if i was capable of doing certain things. but then when we did like the sobriety test, the cogmytive test, it was very clear that i wasn't actually doing these things very well at all. i think that reflects one of the problems with acute sleep deprivation. people get behind the wheel or do something else and they run a risk of hurting themselves. >> they feel as if they're quite fine. sleep is a major issue for many viewers. what sort of advice after coming out of all there do you have for people who have to keep odd hours perhaps because of work? >> most expxperts say the trick is

experiment, i was asleep for 20 of them. it took a lot of recovery. >> what surprised you mostbout the whole thing? >> there were a number of things. number one, i thinink that iwas even possible that i could get through this 50 hours but the othething, and this is really interesting was that i felt as if even during the end of the experiment, as if i was capable of doing certain things. but then when we did like the e sobriety test, the cognitive test, it was very clear that i wasn't, i wasn't actually doing these things very well at all i think that reflects one of the problems with acute sleep deprivation. people get behind the wheel or do something else and they run a risk of hurting themselves. >> they feel as if they're quite fine. sleep is a major issue for many viewers. what sort of advice after coming out of all there do you have for people who have to keep odd hours perhaps because of work? >> most experts say the trick is
