Why does Twitter.com/nsa crash my browser?

When you visit http://twitter.com/nsa. Any browser experts know how to debug, or maybe twitter has been experimenting with some awful code?

Most likely related to the OSX issue described here recently: https://github.com/HackerNews/HN/issues/19

Seems right. I reproduced the error on Chrome/Mac but it worked for me on Chrome/Windows.

Confirmed both on Chrome and Safari. Chrome's console even crashes if you try to "View Source"

It doesn't crash on Chromium, Firefox on Archlinux and Ubuntu.
