There is no better visual cue that it is cold out than this brass monkey. Once the temperature gets to be frigid, about 23 degrees Fahrenheit, a piece of his anatomy drops off as illustrated in the picture above. This will bring life to the adage “cold enough to freeze the b…s off a brass monkey.” To reset him all you have to do is let him thaw out a bit and reattach his boys. This may be the only time you find emasculation amusing.

Okay, this is just stupid. The phrase “cold enough to freeze the b@ll$ off a brass monkey” doesn’t need to be brought to life, cause it COMES from real life. A brass monkey is what the cannonballs were stacked on. And when it got REAL cold, the cannonballs would shrink just a bit more than the brass monkey, so they’d slip off. so the saying really should be “Cold enough to freeze the cannonballs off a brass monkey”
