Coupled pendulum simulation spinning out of control

With certain settings, the coupled pendulum simulation spins out of control instead of oscilating.
Settings:
Mass #1 0.2
Mass #2 10
Initial angle #1 -90
Initial angle #2 0
Pendulum length 0.2
Separation length 0.6
Spring rest length 0.6
Spring constant 5
g 9.8

Pendulum #1 spins around instead of oscillating

I will look into it. From what I saw when I created this, for high spring constant values it starts giving weird results. I did not delve into whether this was a divergence of the numerical solution or if the spring constant that high just gave crazy results.

Edit: Sorry, I closed this by mistake.
