Jean-Pierre Christin's Thermometer

Origin
Jean-Pierre Christin proposed to reverse the Celsius thermometer scale from water boiling at 0 degrees and ice melting at 100 degrees, to water boiling at 100 degrees and ice melting at 0 degrees.

Effects
Steadily increases owners’ internal temperature to a boiling point. They will feel a slightly warming sensation underneath their skin until they experience heat flashes, loss of orientation and blackouts.
