I confirm the bug. Under gutsy, flash animations like youtube videos used to cause epiphany-browser to crash from time to time while unloading the animation. Now that I upgraded to hardy beta, this happens way more often, like on 50% of the animations. This is not reproducible for each animation.

However, I was able to find an animation which seems to trigger the bug repeatedly (or at least a bug with the same symptoms): it is the big animation at the top of http://www.makinghistory.upenn.edu/ .

(Directions:

> Re-load and press the "skip intro" button to witness the same effect)

Hope it helps.
