Body Idioms

About a month ago we looked at animal idioms, now lets look at idioms that use parts of the body. For example,

"She was talking about medicine, but it all went completely over my head."

Nothing was thrown over somebody’s head! This is an expression meaning that something was too difficult for you to understand.

In the following idioms, which body part goes with which idiom. As before, please post the literal meaning of the idioms after. Enjoy!
