There are no documented cases of death from this cause in humans. Studies have been done with volunteers staying up for 10 days.

That is kinda like holding your breath until you die. It is physically impossible. Your exhausted body will evenutally shut you down into sleep just as you would pass out from holding your breath and you would begin to breathe.

I don't think you can "wake to death"... Your brain would shut down, forcing your mind into a sleeping state. Dunno what would happen to your body. It may stay active- like a sleepwalker's.....
I think insanity would be much more likely than death.

I don't think there is any conclusive evidence on that. There are people that claim to have been awake for years.
