website crashes when i load preview

Hi guys, have some difficulty here, I checked and couldn't spot any mistake/difference from the video. But somehow when i open preview the program crashes my browser...

var upper = 100;
var randomNumber = getRandomNumber(upper);
var guess;
var attempts = 0;

function getRandomNumber(upper) {
  return Math.floor( Math.random() * upper ) + 1;
}

while ( guess !== randomNumber ) {
  guess = getRandomNumber( upper );
  attempts += 1;
}

document.write("<p>The random number was " + randomNumber + "</p>");
document.write("<p>It took computer " + attempts + " attemps to get right</p>");

It seems to be working on my screen so maybe try using a different browser, or keep trying. It could be that the browser can't handle the amount of guesses that it could take?
