I have a question regarding the fact that I've heard that sperms get slow or 
die if they get too hot, hence the need for them to be hanging in a "bag" 
outside the body. Now to the question, how on earth do they (the sperms) then 
survive in countries that are hotter then human temperature(37 c.)?
