It is a beige box, similar in appearance to a [[Block (Super Mario 64)|standard block]], with the same dizzy face on each side of it.


==History==
A Crazed Crate is a beige box, similar in appearance to a standard [[Block (Super Mario 64)|Block]], with the same worried face on each side of it. If [[Mario]] grabs a Crazed Crate, the box bounces around three times in the direction Mario is facing, with the plumber holding on. The [[jump]]s get progressively higher. After the last jump, the crate explodes and five [[Coin]]s appear. Crazed Crates can also bounce off of walls, which will not count as one of the three bounces. Crazed Crates appear in [[Big Boo's Haunt]], [[Lethal Lava Land]], [[Shifting Sand Land]], and [[Tall, Tall Mountain]]. In all levels listed, only one appears, except for Shifting Sand Land, where there are two. In ''Super Mario 64 DS'', they appear to have sclerae.

In ''Super Mario 64'' and ''Super Mario 64 DS'', Crazed Crates appear in [[Big Boo's Haunt]], in [[Lethal Lava Land]], in [[Shifting Sand Land]], and on [[Tall, Tall Mountain]]. In all [[level]]s listed, only one appears, except for Shifting Sand Land, where there are two. In ''Super Mario 64 DS'', they appear to have sclerae. If [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], or [[Wario]] grabs a Crazed Crate (or if [[Yoshi]] eats one), the box bounces around three times in the direction the player character is facing, with him holding on. The [[jump]]s get progressively higher. After the last jump, the crate explodes and five [[coin]]s appear. Crazed Crates can also bounce off walls, which do not count as one of the three bounces.
Many Crazed Crates (named '''Whomp Blocks''' in English) also appear in a ''[[Mario Party]]'' [[minigame]] called [[Box Mountain Mayhem]] where the player has to break all of the Blocks to get Coins; however, if they hit a Crazed Crate, the player does not get a Coin and is moved away from the blocks.


===''Mario Party'' series===
Some Crazed Crates appear as decoration on the ''[[Mario Party 2]]'' board, [[Bowser Land]].
