Basic probability. How come when I flip a coin it is just as likely to come up heads or tails even if it has just been heads 5 times in a row?

I understand the physical properties of the coin make it so it is an independent event but if I were to run the experiment multiple times the number of times it would be heads after 5 heads would not be an even probability, it would be unlikely since 6 heads in a row is a rare event.
