- bravado, courage; GUTS. In this sense, "balls" still means "testicles," but "having balls" implies bravado. Having large "balls" or many "balls" implies even more bravado. (The "having testicles" = "bravado" relationship exists in other languages, e.g. "tener cojones" in Spanish.)

- Possible etymology: The original phrase is actually hinted to in the expression "with a full head of steam". In the earliest days of steam engines, Watt style engines and their successors used a centrifugal governor to control speed. The faster the engine was to run the higher the weighted balls on the governor would rise until at full speed they were at their highest and farthest reach from the center: high or full speed was known as running "balls out".

notes
- One theory of the term's etymology follows.
On old steam engines, there was a governor device that had an arm with two steel balls on each end. This spun around, and as the engine went faster the centrifugal force spun the balls higher and higher. When the engine reached its maximum safe power, the balls would be spinning fast and high. When they reached a specific height, a spring would shut down steam and not allow the engine to blow up (over speed itself). So "balls to the wall" means: as fast as the engine possibly can go.Last edited on Jul 10 2011. Submitted by Anonymous on Jul 10 2011.
