I worked on ships for a while and we used to work 4 on - 8 off. So getting anymore than 6 to 6 1/2 straight was impossible. I'm not a morning person and have a hard time getting up if it's still dark outside. Also one has to have a reason to get up.
When in Bangkok I live above a bar. I can confirm that if one goes to bed inebriated at 2 - 2.30am almost everyday it's difficult to surface much before 10.00am. There was a bar owner in Phuket once who started putting the shutters on the bar at 5.00pm. When asked why, he didn't realize it was not 5.00am
