It is usually slang in English speaking countries for 'bravery'.
The word, cojones, means 'testicles' in Spanish, and does NOT have the the same meaning in Spanish as it does in the countries the word is used in.
Do NOT believe the other posts, it is NOT just used in those countries it is used in EVERY Spanish speaking country, too...

Cojones (Spanish pronunciation: koˈxones) is a vulgar Spanish word for testicles, denoting courage; it corresponds to balls in United States English and bollocks in British English (an uncommon synonym for courage).
In the fourth episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit a sexually-assaulted woman said she grabbed her attacker’s cojones, because he was strangling her. Afterwards, detectives Stabler and Benson re-enact the rape, and Det. Benson says cojones, like the rape victim.

hey vato i got some big cojones.
Spanish word for the testes, gonads, balls.
Also used in Cuba as an expletive for just about anything, similar to how the British use the word "bullocks".
However, Cubans will almost always drop the 'S' at the end of the word, therefore it will sound similar to "cojone", and if they use the word at the end of a sentence, they will put extreme emphasis on the word. (See second example below)
"Ay cojones, se me olvido pagar el bill de la electricidad."
"Estoy harto de esta pinga. Ya no quiero ni mujer ni COJONE."
