That would not make sense as when he crashed, 0 chunks were loaded in, it might have something to do with incompatability or other mods causing problems when detecting unknown entities that will cause issues with graphics. This crash is nearly identical to this one and the problem was render distance. In 1.8 maximum render distance was increased from 16 to 32. If you join a world with a value pre-1.8 world with a value higher than 16, it registers as an invalid value and crashes.

Strangely enough, I myself have always been able to join 1.7.10 worlds with 16+ render distance. I wonder what I am doing different that makes it work for me.
