Probably you end up running a different version of ping which just keeps on looping forever. Perhaps your PATH is different in Bash than in the regular Bourne shell. Try specifying an explicit pathname like /bin/ping or whatever works for you.
Some versions of ping accept an argument -c 1 which says to send only one packet and then quit (or any number after -c of course); if not specified, they will loop forever.
If your shell doesn't understand $(...) you can use `...` instead (those are grave accents -- ASCII 96 -- not regular straight apostrophes).
