Fine:
But why does the terminal go crazy?

is obviously an abnormal behavior

is true that I should not type  cat /var/log/wtmp

as it is true that nobody should make a ping of death

but you should not consider only the proper use of a command, but also
violations that can do the same

true that cat /var/log/wtmp does not seem harmful

well, excuseme 
I'm no expert : (
 
But why does the terminal go crazy? : D
