Sleep

An average human sleeps for 27 years throughout their life.
Can you imagine if we didn't have to sleep? What we could do with almost 30 extra years...the possibilities are endless.
And why do humans sleep, anyways? It doesn't make any evolutionary sense! Think about it: when humans are sleeping, they're not eating, drinking, socializing, or reproducing - all of which are necessary to survival from the evolutionary standpoint. So why do we have to sleep?
Why can't we just have an extra 30 years?

because then we'd all look like zombies... and no amount of makeup could cover that~

How well do we use the years that we don't sleep and do you think we would use the extra years any better?

The difference between the way we all use the 24 hours/day we have now is staggering.
