Show HN: Zooming into this animated div crashes Safari on iOS

User armatav noticed this on another thread (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25554162).

I was curious to see what would be needed to reproduce it. The issue is caused by the "glow" animation behind the todo list on the original page.

There does not seem to be any lasting damage other than a reset to the lock screen, but try at your own peril.

If nothing happens, zoom in and out quickly repeatedly.

Yes, this will respring or shut down your iPhone.
