No, it is not healthy.

The average amount of sleep a person should get per night range usually from 7-9 hours. If you vary once in a while (maybe 6 hours once in a while,maybe10-12 hours once in a while), you'll be fine. But 16 is tooexcess and can mess up a person's sleep cycle.

Scientists have linked sleeping to little and sleeping too much to many health problems, including Diabetes, heart problems, depression, loss of gray matter in the brain, increased rates of death, as well as other problems. So get off that bed, ya slug!
