The video tutorial demonstrates the effects of heat on balloons filled with different substances. A gas-filled balloon pops when exposed to a flame due to the rubber burning and gas escaping. In contrast, a water-filled balloon does not pop because the water absorbs the heat, keeping the rubber cool. The tutorial further explains that water can only reach a maximum temperature of 100 degrees Celsius before turning into vapor, illustrating the concept of heat transfer and boiling point.
