MEET THE SLEEPLESS MAN OF VIETNAM (Yes, it’s true!!) This is one of the most surreal stories I’ve ever told you in my 7-year career as a YouTuber, and I can’t wait for you to watch it!

I first heard about Mr. Thai Ngoc many years ago, and I never knew it would be possible to find him because his location has never been revealed.

Mr. Ngoc claims that he hasn’t slept a wink since 1962 (the year my dad was born) – seriously! Some people think it could be PTSD from the war, while others believe that he has an extremely rare medical condition. Whatever the case is, I traveled 2 days from Arizona to a small village in South Vietnam to track him down, stay up all night with him, and see if it was actually true that he doesn’t sleep.

What I discovered is astonishing. Comment below your thoughts if you think it’s true or false, based on my experience. I’d love to hear from you!

  1. This story was such an adventure! And so much fun to shoot! But I want to know your honest thoughts after watching… Do you think he really hasn't slept since 1962? Or do you think he sleeps on occasion? Would love to hear from you in the comments here!

  2. I’m sure he just sleeps for a couple hours a day. I’m the same way I can’t sleep for over a hour or 2 but I take naps sometimes

  3. I would love to have all that extra time but I’m almost the opposite I sleep too much like at least 11 hours if I’m not doing anything that I set an alarm for.

  4. Pointing at food with your finger & then pointing at someone (especially an elderly person) with the chopstick is the ultimate insult to anyone. This American piece of sxxt is so fxxking rude.

  5. If this is true dope. But from how the video started idk.. I swear it’s proven there’s stages to not sleeping and you can die

  6. The title is false.he definitely has slept, maybe not 8 hours but 10 mins, 5 mins or both the above.

  7. Amazing story, poor guy, if I am struggling to put more than 3-4 hours of continuous sleep a day and I feel that I am drained most of the time. That $500 is not going to the hospital lol.

  8. A ha…..so he DOES sleep atleast a couple hours.I am not a doctor but,he looks very healthy and not like someone who doesnt sleep.

  9. This reminds me of the predicament faced by the tortured Christian Bale protagonist in The Machinist, which also deals with PTSD and running away from your trauma. As to the people discounting others' PTSD narratives and telling them to "get over it", I have a message for you. PTSD is not just war, it can be any severely traumatic experience or multiple in the case of cPTSD. Different people react differently to the same traumas, so what may induce PTSD in one person may lead to post-traumatic growth in another (such as my case). And you cannot just "get over it", that's like telling a cancer patient to "get over" their tumor. Mental illness is just as real as physical illness, and yes there are some people online who fake mental illness or exaggerate it for sympathy, but I'm talking about those actually diagnosed.
