Did you notice the error:
...
RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded
You can't recurse forever!
>>> import sys
>>> sys.getrecursionlimit()

You can set it a little higher (sys.setrecursionlimit) if you want to
make this particular example work, but you'll see many disclaimers on
doing this.
