Yes, adobe Flash makes Epiphany crash. Due to the crappiness of the
plugins interface, it is not easy to tell that a crash occurred in a
plugin, so we’re basically screwed.

I can only recommend you to use swfdec instead, it is the only Flash
plugin that works fine with Epiphany.

Alternatively, if you only use it for watching Youtube videos, there are
much better alternatives:
      * use the totem youtube plugin (included in the totem-plugins
        package)
      * use the epiphany video downloader extension:
