Well, there is some question in my mind if the plugin or browser was at fault (it really could be either from the video), but he certainly clicked a link to watch the browser die.

The close button didn't have any of his fingers near it, and when he clicked the link right over the video itself, the browser died pretty much instantly.

Those who despise flash don't believe it crashes every 15 minutes. But it does crash from time to time, and Adobe seems impotent to drive the crashing bugs out of Flash, which is my personal complaint. Crashing bugs out of all bugs are top priority in my company. Why? Because it can cause the user to lose data, which is a Very Bad Thing(tm).

And my biggest complaint about the Android platform is that while Google leaves it open, which is nice, they've also left OEMs to clean up any rough edges, which isn't. The platform needs leadership to really thrive, or Apple and Microsoft will wind up eating their lunch in the long-run.
