loop to deliberately cause program to crash?

Code:

---

class GamePlayer {
    int doSomeMove() {
        // for loop put in here deliberately to cause timeout
        for (;;) {
        }

        return 5;
    }
}

---

i'm trying to test my system with timeouts and stuff, by doing malicious coding on purpose. but the above doesn't work anyway as it says
Test.java:40: unreachable statement
return 5;
^
1 error

how could i make this work to test stuff?

Make a boolean that's true then have a while loop with the boolean as its parameter.

Let it be a class member, and make sure it's neither const nor final
