The savagery is becoming monstrous. I had a medical condition that didn't allow me to sleep for eight days (many years ago) and it was, by far, the most traumatic thing that has ever happened to me, surpassing many broken bones, a frozen shoulder that lasted for months, severe burn to my hand, and even open-heart surgery and impacted wisdom teeth. Some still say sleep deprivation is too good for those whom the system has singled out for abuse.
