I can't imagine being awake that long and having to do things that have actual consequences. At least if I drop into a microsleep while playing a videogame or get paranoid and shoot at a friendly no one gets hurt.
Definitely seen the black dog on the road driving and that was only after a 24hr stint awake and behind the wheel for 11hours under some less than ideal conditions. I said no to my boss a lot more after that, luckily they understood.
It’s funny, my most distinct memory of the time is being on the exposed turret and reaching for my energy drink can, only to find it frozen solid to the metal of the turret. It was about that time I started really realizing how long I’d been up for.
