Of course their crafts can go down. Also we have some interference that has been reported to cause some of the crashes, and there are reports of our governments shooting some of them down. There is an enormous difference between the crafts that they travel distance in, what I call the deep space crafts, which are huge, and the smaller, lower tech crafts they use in our atmosphere, which are somewhat riskier, but it enables them to do their frequent activities with less detection overall, unless they want to be detected much of the time anyway. As well, it allows control over what technology they will be willing to part with in case of an event out of their control, such as the loss of a craft. In other words, we don't get their higher technology, but mainly their lower tech.
It might sound ridiculous but consider that at least on a few of those accounts they crashed intentionally..??
For reasons we would know the very least about, obviously.

They're not shot down. There ain't much that could penetrate past their propulsion fields let alone 'seek' and affect the W+ axes that the previous poster may be refering to, (4D+ dimensional) other than EM technologies. Our focused radar used to be able to shut them down, resulting in a crash, and I guess you could say we got 'lucky' on those instances, (although I cannot equate any being's death with lucky in my book). They got smart to us and now use double hulled craft, which = Not very many crashes past the 1970s. This is what I have gathered, BTW. Hope it makes sense.

Any reported crashes that have taken place are what you might call ET's way of allowing us to have something to play around with, without them having to actually show up, have dinner and drop it off. Have we ever actually shot down an ET craft or caused it to crash? Heavens NO, not in a millions years!

I beg to differ, if I remember correctly this 'laser beam' was pinpointed to a military base outside florida. Of course some will say that these specks are ice crystals. But no one has actually provided sufficient evidence to sway my mind away from the fact that this is laser beam technology on this earth. Possibly stolen from Nikola Teslas writings.

Some of the issues they have to overcome include, but are not limited to:
-Time versus the distance traveled
-Fuel or Energy to cover said distance
-Sustenance to maintain the occupants over said distance
-Craft ability to operate under multiple vacuums and atmospheres
In reference to the latter of these issues i ask this....
How could such advanced craft, with unimaginable technology crash so often here on earth? Why can they navigate huge distances thru space only to crash on this little rock?

Maybe because some get shot down?

How about we assume that we have no idea how the crafts are built, where they come from, if they are physical or any other specific besides basic shape --and even then...
It isn't as bad as assuming the species or intentions of the occupants (if there are any), but questions like this tend to get cluttered with:
"My opinion if fact"
when in fact it should be:
"This is my opinion, by no means is it fact"
Another thought on the OP:
If something can go wrong, it will go wrong...are we to assume that Mr. Murphy is applicable to earthly activity only? Or only the human species?
I guess I am still harping on the assumed 'perfection' of craft, skill and circumstance that we allow these 'visitors'.

Timothy Good makes some interesting points about the US government shooting down discs with guided missiles enabled with proximity fuses.
He also comments on the subsequent (and unprecedented) world rise
in unexplained air accidents -both military and civilian

And for the record, my opinion is that under normal circumstances using regular traditional military weaponry these things can't be seriously damaged.
It is also my opinion that they can and do access multiple planes of higher dimensions for getting around, recon, and evasion. I've seen at least one do that with my own eyes.
