The page makes my browser crash.

Mine too. Firefox, but only on my work machine. My home desktop is fine. I've had weird Firefox issues whenever there's video (like that banner at the top) and if I watch the output, it looks like GLX issues (my work laptop should just be either Intel integrated ... I wonder if the driver is crashing)

Check out about:crashes, you can submit a dump to the trace servers and get a backtrace that will tell you where it's crashing, and make it easy to file a bug report.

(if you're using a distro provided build, it might be more involved, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/How_to_get_...)

Will the trace still be captured if the application goes into "Not Responding" mode under Windows and I have to kill it from Task Manager?

Can't reproduce on Windows 10 on Firefox 42, but Firefox 36 on Windows 7 crashed to the extent that it's saying it can't find my profile. It's a work machine and I blame AppV.

Time to switch browsers. Chrome v51 (dev) under OS X renders it flawlessly.

..or you could file a bug report and fix what's causing the browser crash.
