when you work the metal, it becomes hard and brittle. Less easy to bend, more easy to break. Reheating helps to soften the metal and make it workable again. More easily bendable, less easily breakable. Just don't over-heat or it will melt, as seen with the ends. I watch a lot of these, and it seems like I have a new question for every video.
