sleep like a log

idiom/slip laɪk ə lɔɡ/

to sleep very deeply and soundly

After hiking all day, I was so exhausted that I slept like a log and didn’t wake up once during the night.

word origin — From the 1800s — a heavy log lies still on the ground without moving, like a person in extremely deep sleep.
