2 crashes for me. One was a power line, the other an iceberg. Both broke the gimbal plate and one damaged the video cable. Repaired myself both times. I know the Mavic pretty well now.

Wooh smashing the camera off must be like having your balls ripped off!

I crash my Mavic Pro after only two trails, not a big crash just 1.5 m high but on a wall.... but the gear of the camera was dammage and the stabilisation don't work so I resend to DJI for repairing... the answer was Sorry your device was crashed and is not covered by garantie !! and your drone can not be repaired so please bye a new one !!

Once... There was a single pole in the entire vicinity, right behind me... I was bringing the mavic back to me when I thought I would buzz myself... flew right into the pole.  Chipped 2 props but was still able to land no problem.

Crashed once. I never knew what happened: I lost all contact with the mavic (which was 300m from me, nothing between us).
2 pairs of propellers broken and one arm slightly scratched

I sent the data to DJI but they couldn't tell me what happened.

One really bad (and expensive) one. We were looking at wedding venues for my oldest granddaughter, figured I'd take a few shots from the air - beautiful old mansion beside a bluff with a fantastic view. I took off and was hovering about 30 feet up, didn't even have my thumbs on the sticks - was talking to the wife and future grandson-in-law. A big gust of wind blew it sideways into a magnolia  tree, it flipped upside down and came crashing down in the concrete parking lot. It had two broken arms, the camera, gimbal and cracked the top housing.

That sounds like a really bad one!
