What Happens when Your Sleep is Disturbed - [Animated Video]

in #science7 years ago

What are some negative consequences associated with poor or bad sleep? In this video I look over a few noteworthy historical examples and recollections about this.

These examples illustrate bad sleep in extreme environments, such as in the desert, at sea, or even in space. Despite the fact that you may think it's least likely for you to encounter yourself in an extreme environment to be sleep disturbed, quite often the relatively 'safe' life we live can lead us in such a situation.

Sleep loss may be acute or chronic. Either way, it elicits negative effects on health, both physically and psychologically.

Similar to other videos, I derive my inspiration from the fantastic book of Emma Barrett, titled Extreme - Why Some People Thrive at the Limits. Please watch the video for the full scoop. Enjoy!
