Crazed Crate

A Crazed Crate, or Crazy Crate, is a block found in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS. It is a beige box, similar in appearance to a standard block, with the same worried face on each side of it. If Mario, Yoshi, Luigi, or Wario grabs a Crazed Crate, the box bounces around three times in the direction the player character is facing, with him holding on. The jumps get progressively higher. After the last jump, the crate explodes and five coins appear. Crazed Crates can also bounce off walls, which do not count as one of the three bounces. Crazed Crates appear in Big Boo's Haunt, in Lethal Lava Land, in Shifting Sand Land, and on 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.

Many Crazed Crates (named Whomp Blocks in English) also appear in a Mario Party minigame called Box Mountain Mayhem, where the players have to break all of the blocks to get coins; however, if one hits a Crazed Crate, that player does not get a coin and is moved away from the blocks.

Some Crazed Crates appear as decorations in the Mario Party 2 board Bowser Land.
