When the body's exposed to rising temperatures, it has the ability to cool itself down. 

We sweat, our blood vessels dilate, and our heart rate increases. Our body releases as much excess heat as it can. 

But when the temperature starts to inch above 100 degrees, our bodies have to work overtime, leading to heat exhaustion. We become nauseated, dizzy, and confused. And we fight like hell to cool down before it's too late. 

For some, the boiling point is more about stuff bubbling up from the bottom. It's about stuff you haven't thought about in a while. It's about stuff that's been heating up while you weren't even paying attention. 

The question is, how well can you contain things before they boil over?

The thing is, even if things don't boil over completely, they can still simmer. 

And as long as you're careful how you handle yourself, you won't get burned.
