Differs for people, your body will usually force you to sleep, but I have known people to stay awake for 5-6 days. It is VERY unhealthy do to it though.
Googling, I have seen people that can stay awake for weeks.
Personally, I pass out after 2 days.

i did not sleep for 5 days straight before. It was during my naval diving training. We had to go thru hell week and maybe got to sleep for about 5-10 mins a day. it was really hell. i guess this is uncompareble to people who do this on a regular basis.

yep, it depends. if your body couldnt take it, most probaby you can only stay awake for 2-3 days. however, some people can stay awake for weeks. i know a friend who once played computer games without break and sleep for 5 days 4 nights.

I went a 100 hours or so awhile back. Right now, I am hitting hour 50.
Back in my meth days, I went days - up to 6 once, I think.

well i have gone years on end with a little as half an hour of sleep, every once in a while, so i would say it would have to depend on the person, and why they can not sleep.
