They resemble a [[Block (Super Mario 64)|standard block]], but with the same dizzy face on each side, including sclerae in ''Super Mario 64 DS''. | |

|
| ==History==
| | A Crazed Crate is a beige box, with the same worried face on each side. If [[Mario]] grabs a Crazed Crate, the box will bounce around three times, in the direction Mario is facing, with the pumber holding on. The [[Jump|jumps]] will get progressively higher, and after the last jump, the crate will explode and a few coins will appear. |
| ===''Super Mario 64'' / ''Super Mario 64 DS''===
| |
| Two Crazed Crates appear in the courses [[Big Boo's Haunt]], [[Lethal Lava Land]], and [[Tall, Tall Mountain]], as well as one in [[Shifting Sand Land]] in ''Super Mario 64'' and ''Super Mario 64 DS''. If a player character grabs a Crazed Crate (or [[Yoshi]] eats it in the remake), he first bounces in the direction faced, followed by two increasingly higher bounces before the Crazed Crate explodes, revealing five [[coin]]s. Bouncing off of a wall is not counted as one of the three bounces.

|
| |
|
| ===''Mario Party'' series===
| | Crazed Crates appear in courses such as [[Big Boo's Haunt]] and [[Shifting Sand Land]]. |
| '''Whomp Blocks''', as they are titled in English for ''[[Mario Party]]'', are in the [[minigame]] [[Box Mountain Mayhem]], where they bounce away players who hit them.
| |
|
| |
|
| Some Crazed Crates are decorations in the ''[[Mario Party 2]]'' board [[Bowser Land]].
| | Many also appear in ''[[Mario Party 3]]'' in a mini-game where a player has to break all crates to get [[coin]]s however if he gets a Crazed Crate the player will not get a coin and may not be able to move for some seconds. They are called '''Whomp Boxes''' here. |
