Sleep takes up time 1/3 of the life of man! We sleep because the brain needs to rest and be able to operate normally…
With sleep is strengthened not only the brain, but also the entire organization. The immune system works better, and the wounds heal faster.
The process of sleep is instinctive-innate as is the case with food and hunger.
Anyone who does not sleep for a long time, then soon you will present lesions in the brain and will change the behavior. You will begin to have hallucinations, psychotic episodes, you will lose weight will show of dementia and insanity and in the end you will die. (It is no coincidence that the modern “designed” torture, the worst of it is that in which the victim is forbidden to sleep and the torturers they keep me awake days and nights, until they “break”.)
A year after the start of the first World War, in 1915, the doctors were faced with a strange for the scientific data of the time, situation. The Hungarian soldier Paul Kern on the Eastern front, was in the trenches. He had survived a barrage of artillery of the soldiers of the Tsar (even Russia had not capitulate and fought with the Αντάν against the Germans and their ΑυστÏοοÏγγÏους). The Kern, was almost buried under the soil, in the trench. The Russian soldiers just finished the barrage, opened on the enemy trenches and εξολόθÏευαν those who had survived.
Kern, saw 2 boots in front of his eyes, he heard a rifle being cocked, and felt something hot to flick the front. Then he lost consciousness.
The Russian soldier who gave him the coup de grace, you don’t aim well and the bullet hit his skull, came out on the other side, but he didn’t hurt his brain.
Hours later they found him half dead colleagues. It was moved to a makeshift setup surgery campaign, where German doctors took him into surgery. They saw that while the brain had not been tampered with, in the region of the frontal lobe, there was injury and even serious.
Kern, ultimately survived, but not unscathed. He couldn’t sleep.
Something in the region had been altered, and the soldier could not sleep with anything. Neither from fatigue, nor especially sleeping pills, no drug, not even with hypnosis.
The Kern died in 1955. The doctors say that until his death, didn’t sleep even for a moment.
Think for a moment, he stayed awake for 40 years, or otherwise by 480 months, or even more creepy, didn’t sleep a wink for 175.200 days and nights.
All these years, the Kern came and went from hospital to hospital where doctors were trying to find a solution to relieve.
Nor to the hospital of Lemberg, or the professor of neurology Ernst Frey, of the university hospital Lorand, who dealt with the case of the managed to help.
In fact, in his book says that it is unable to find a cause for this anomaly. The Kern after the end of the war, he lived in Budapest and worked in the pension department of the ministry of Health until his death.
