I know someone who's done 32 without actually standing up.

Only ate pizza and redbull that was brought to him. Didnt need to piss.

I recon I've had 18 hour days.

stress>high blood pressure>heart attack

But yeah, i've put in a fair few heavy sessions on the computer - some for gaming, some for work. Hit the 50 hour mark with Gonzo and had to go in to do a presentation...then went to the pub afterwards.

My walk home was a scene reminiscent of any good zombie flick!

I agree that it can be completely hazardous to your health but 12 hours isnt that much really.

I don't see 12 hours as being that much either. Mind you, if I play games, they often hit about 7 or 8 hours max and that's only if I've just gotten a new game I really love. My attention span usually wanders elsewhere after a while.

Yeah there must have been other factors involved, he would have to be in very poor shape already to get a stroke at his age. I don`t see how the computing club can possibly take the flak for his death.
