In my personal experience I had only one case where a all-nighter was justified: I had to submit a project proposal, the deadline was at 2 AM and I was behind schedule. Sleeping and working in the morning would had not worked, so I remained awake until submission.

My mistake was being so behind schedule that I needed to work all night. My eyes were closing against my will. Big mistake. I took care of not doing it anymore.
