How Batman even manages his Sleep?  

Micro sleep in comics: i am rested and sharper of mind. Micro sleep irl: complete cognative breakdown

“Batman isn’t superhuman” In all seriousness, for the standards of our world, he is.

Microsleep expectations: Become Batman Microsleep reality: Become Joker

you can’t be THAT jacked without sleep 😂

People that wanted to be Batman irl: 💀

“Fractions of a second.” So blinking…..

For being a human with no superpowers Batman is OP as hell.

This how they expect college students to be

Doctor said i had narcolepsy but it turns out I'm just like Batman

You know how youre always the most motivated and have the best ideas right before bed? That's Batman 24/7.

Batman just dozing off during HR meetings in the Justice League 😂

Forget money, this is batman's true superpower

If only he lived in a world of magic and super technology advancement to help him sleep better, oh wait

I’m happy u mentioned that it’s extremely dangerous in real life twice cuz some of these morons will really think they’re Batman and do micronaps

And that is why on Batman Beyond he had a Heart Decease, that makes him Cardiac Arrest without his medication

Now I know how to explain my sleeping habits to my psychologist.

In animated movies he sleeps good 8hrs. Works good 8 hrs. Fights good 8 hrs.

Makes sense. That's why he is always grumpy😂

joker: "hahahaha... look who fell into my bird trap, the... bat... uhm... hey, batsy!" battman: snoooore joker: "...!"

"Hold on guys I gotta recharge my ring " "Ok , I'll soak up some sun to top off myself" " Just took a micro nap, Im good"

It sounds to me like he's just incredibly tired and falling asleep😂

Batman's extreme sleeping habits are explained as a technique called "plot armour."

As a night shift only security, I must learn from batman

what Batman and all the other superheroes have is very thick plot armor

Imagine how op Batman would be if he actually let himself rest for 8 hours

They really stacked all the abilities they can onto one human.

I like it more when they make him sleep for few hours and when it's an especially busy week he actually goes days with very little sleep and it affects him. Makes him more human.

Me who hardly sleeps anymore: I could need a micro nap

I liked that in the Nolan movies he just slept in the day and played it up like he was partying at night

Batman doesn't dodge in a fight, he just momentarily falls asleep and collapses out of the path of the attack.

At this point I was never normal since high school because micro sleep is all what I had

Basically Bruce become Ant Man. Literally. Ants are notorious for taking 1-5 second unconscious naps to continue work.

Imagine thinking your the goon that knocked out Batman, and he just gets up and yawns😂

“Batman doesn’t have any super powers” Literally doesn’t sleep

The plot armor continues.......he's Batman

"In real life is dangerous " Batman:I am Batman🗿

And that’s why he’s always grumpy.

he basically takes power naps through out the day

So Batman could auto pilot his Batmobile and just have a nap during a chase? Bro be waking up like “I don’t know where I am, but I am Batman”

Microsleep in comics: Superhuman Brain Power Microsleep irl: *MIND CRUSH*

Imagine batmans dangling you out of a window and halfway through questions he just passes out and drops you

Batman is the jack of all trades of advanced skills but at a master level

The Batmobile: Take a breather, Batman. I got you.

I like to think at a Justice League meeting is the only time he gets a good few hours of rest

At my last job, I went one month with two days off, working doubles at least once a week. Microsleep is fucking terrifying when you blink while driving and lose a mile of freeway

I love the fact that, between batman and superman, the one that has had the most scrutiny and explanation charted on his abilities is the one WITHOUT any powerss only because he is so tantalizingly close to being actually attainable. Peep that I said "close", lol.

So basically Batman is a functional narcoleptic

There's a surprisingly large number of comic panels featuring Batman sleeping

Micronaps are amazing. I can be tired as hell, manage to fall asleep for less than five minutes and feel completely energized.

Fun fact: humans are biphasic(not sure if it’s the right word too lazy to google) sleepers. We are intended to sleep 4 hours into the night then awaken, perform some “duties” then sleep the rest. This is our natural sleeping habits.

Bruce: "Ah, finally some rest after fighting crime" *alarm sounds*

Micro sleep is the safest part of Batman's routine.

Every service member knows this all to well

That's called being tired

Sometimes I wish they’d tone down how crazy op Batman is

Gone are the days where we see Batman actually struggling with a cold or sleep deprivation or injuries from fighting criminals every night.

Micro sleep in real life is only supposed to be used in emergency situations. Things like someone who has been in and out of combat almost constantly for 3 days and otherwise would be passed out from exhaustion. Also I will point out that often in the military there’s not much training for sleeping anywhere, it’s more that your body is always tired so it is possible to fall asleep at anytime if you want to. I also used to get amazing sleep on aircraft, since I used to fix them if I had downtime like waiting for sealant to cure I’d put some of the seats down in the cabin and take a nap.

I remember micro napping when I had two jobs back then and would work back to back shifts. The song Nervous Breakdown by Black Flag perfectly described how I felt during that time. The one day I got a day off was Christmas and sleep was my gift that day

In other words, Batman is hilariously super human.

Them: Why don't you fall asleep. Batman: I'm always asleep

Our closest are students studying medical fields and david goggins

Microsleep can be helpful, not to replace 8-10 hours of sleep but to raise processes during the day, fall asleep in a chair with a key or something small and metal in your hand, place a plate under the hand to catch it, and when you fall asleep you'll release it and the item hitting the plate will wake you up. I can't really explain it but if you're tired in the middle of the day or have brain fog it can really help.

Imagine playing games, microsleeping on the loading screen or queue then waking up when the match is starting

Sam is such a good guest

The military practices this all the time, which is why no one gets mad at “hurry up and wait.”

I like to think as you're talking to him he's just asleep

Bro learned how to sleep faster

Man, Kramer would have been so excited to be Batman's friend

He's batman. He sleeps during the day like all bats. Mircosleep...

Alfred: Master Bruce, are you alright? Damian: He passed out, Pennyworth. I took control of the Batmobile and am driving father back now.

Laying in bed at 2am getting ready to try it until you mentioned that it’s dangerous. Goodnight.

I actually used to have big problems with the break in consciousness from sleeping, especially when it came to trying to get off of drugs because i would feel like i woke up as somebody else and completely lose all the drive and focus I had before sleeping, not to mention I found that the longer i sleep the more tired i am when I wake up. Since i got off the drugs, i can't sleep for more than a couple hours at a time without having a dream/nightmare and waking up, or having to get up to pee, but I have found it has substantially helped me avoid that feeling of waking up as basically a completely different person, with a different stream of consciousness, and helps me stay focused in staying away from drugs. I do have to take naps during the day, however, but overall i sleep a lot less than i used to. I should note, however, that i was diagnosed with narcolepsy at 16, and that i can fall asleep and go into REM sleep extremely quickly, so I don't know if this would work for a normal person the same way. I used to sleep 10-16 hours a day, usually in a row with a break to pee, but now i sleep a total of probably 6-8 hours a day, with one to two naps each an hour or two hours long during the day and a set of 2 naps at night for 2-3 hours each with a pee break in between. It used to be impossible for me to get up too, having to set 10 alarms or rely on someone else to wake me, but having a sleep schedule where i sleep when i feel sleepy instead of fighting it for hours on end has allowed me to sleep significantly less, and be more alert when i am awake.

My friend could do this in her teens it was her talent she could take a microsleeps it would last a few minutes and be refreshed ready to study and do whatever she needed to do. For her it was a conscious decision. She called them nano naps. I don't know if this plays a part but she has photographic memory as well she wasn't a genius but she did take AP classes she was smarter than most. Still is. I'm very proud of her if you can't tell.

Imagine explaining something to Batman while he just falls asleep for 10 seconds mid-conversation.

Batman isn't brooding on the gargoyles he's sleeping

Impressive how many times you said "don't sue me, bro" without saying it.

Maturity is when you realise that BATMAN is a common father who working hard

Its time to make Batman Human again

No wonder he saw the potential Duke Thomas, Not only did he saw his capabilities as a superhero, he saw a way for him to have a more natural sleep schedule.

That last panel if he had a punisher shirt on would be scary

I have also mastered the technique of micro sleep, but only when I’m in class…..

Kinda touching the level of trust that Alfred and him has that he can just let all his guard down, be completely vulnerable and fall asleep when Alfred is around. Probably the only person that sees Batman with all his flaws as a human.

I heard that people on the military briefly acquire this ability during training exercises, most often when pulling security

I used this method way before batman, all throughout high school classes and university lectures

This has got to be his super ability

Man, I miss that cape style shown in the first panel. The BatSpawn cape, I called it. I love modern, armored Bats but that cape style was something else.

batman really copied my high school sleep schedule

So the old man falls asleep at the computer, got it.

That's called narcolepsy...

“Fractions of a second”….BLINKING!

Batmans nervous system is shot confirmed ✅

Crazy how Batman is considered weak physically in his world but if he was real he’d be considered a super human or the strongest human alive by a long shot

That old school cape though…it’s like a cloak and look how jacked they made him…comics these days are missing that for the most part

There's actually some real life science behind this.SOF train themselves to sleep and take mini naps so they skip most of the sleep stages right to the good stuff so they feel well rested on minimal sleep

The art in the thumbnail looks sick asf!

Batman: Micro sleep 🖤 | My version: Over sleep 🥲

That first panel of him passed out in his curtain of a cape is fantastic

falling unconscious unaware of his brief slumber - in other words he is so sleepy he falls asleep unintentionally 🤣

Micro sleepin before the second alarm

He is literally friends with an alien that has access to highly advanced extraterrestrial technology and yet he uses controlled sleep deprivation to get more ooomph throughout the day? Boy, the writers of the Batman comics have really gotten dumb over the years lol. Superman could literally synthesize a drug or piece of technology that keeps Batman from having to do this. Superman has super intellect as well. If he can help Batman design the Hellbat suit he can help Batman get some sleep!
