The folklore wants the Mexican to be the sleepiest ones in the world, yet a OECD research of some years ago has revealed they sleep only little more than us Italians. Did you know that the Frenchmen are those who sleep most? Let us go step by step: The peoples who sleep least The most active ones are the Koreans, who sleep an average of 469 minutes per night, followed by the Japanese and the Norwegians, who snooze respectively 470 and 483 minutes. The peoples who sleep most  As stated, the Frenchmen are the greatest sleepyheads in the world, their sleep last up to 530 minutes per night (which means almost nine hours!), followed by the Americans (518 minutes) and the Spaniards (514).
