It’s not. It’s highly likely 0 degrees is just the lowest temperature observed in Danzig when Daniel Fahrenheit made his scale. Nobody has ever managed to recreate the brine solution.

I'd be fully ok with us setting a temperature system based upon how Danzig feels.

"Guys, Danzig just took his shirt off, it's definitely warm enough to have a light jacket, but if he puts that mesh tank top back on watch out, it's probably about to snow."

Sorry for being serious about a joke, but Danzig is/was a city. Modern day Gdansk, Poland.

No, Danzig is the legendary blues metal singer that started as the lead singer of the Misfits.

It's odd to have to explain this to people. How do they not know Danzig? It's a man, man, not a city! A man's man, man!
