Huh. I'm jealous. I've been running 64 bit Lenny and Squeeze for the past three years or so. When I moved to the 64 bit flash plugin, it would crash Iceweasel on a regular basis. No watching videos required -- just a flash advertisement on a page. I could restart Iceweasel and go back, maybe get a different flash advertisement from the rotation which wouldn't crash Iceweasel and read the page. I'd say 5% of pages would crash Iceweasel.
But it got to the point where I just moved the plugin out of the way, and live without flash for Iceweasel on amd64. I move it back when my daughter wants to hang out at Club Penguin, which plays nice with my browser.
