This is because compared to other fluids it takes a lot more heat to change the temperature measurably. Eventually the heat will break up the hydrogen bonds and speed up the molecules to turn the water into steam. For living organisms this becomes very useful when we sweat because our sweat or "water" will absorb the heat from our bodies and effectively cool our
