Can any one explain to me what is happening here? What's weird to me is that this activity works most of the time.. And in the cases that it does crash on an out of memory error like above.

When the Activity is paused it is not freeing the Bitmap used for the image you are loading, so when it is reloaded you consume more and more memory, until your app runs out of the memory Android makes available to it (and you get the out of memory exception).

In your Activity's pause method make sure you call Bitmap.recycle on the Bitmap you are creating when you load the image. You may need to play with the lifecycle methods and figure out where best to free/release the memory allocated when the image is loaded, but that should fix your out of memory error.
