They are two different types of video encoding.

NTSC has a lower resolution at a higher frames per second, while PAL is a higher resolution, but a lower frames per second.
These two come out the be the same amount of information though.

There is also some minor differences in the way the colours info is structured, so you may not see the colours correctly if you run pal video over ntsc or vice versa.
