None of the Apollo missions crashed
Apollo 11 was the first manned landing on the moon, and it returned the 2 lunar and 1 orbiter astronauts to Earth safely in 1969.
Apollo 13 had some major power and equipment problems at the beginning of its mission, it never made it to the moon but did return its 3 astronauts to Earth safely (after much worrying and "special reports" on the news at the time).
There were 4 other Apollo missions, all successful.
The Russian Soyuz 1 did crash upon landing on Earth in 1967, killing one cosmonaut.
The space shuttle Challenger blew up just after launch in 1986, killing all 7 astronauts.
The space shuttle Columbia disintegrated upon re-entry in Earth's atmosphere in 2003, killing all 7 astronauts on board.

Apollo 11 did not crash, it landed on the moon.
Granted, it did have to adjust where it landed, landing with a dangerously low amount of fuel in the main body (which was not needed to take off, no worries.)
And there were 3 people:
Neil Armstrong: First person to land on the moon, mission commander.
Buzz Aldrin: Second person to land on moon, lunar module pilot.
Mike Collins: Command module pilot (did not land on moon).

In January 1967, two and a half years prior to Apollo 11, there was a fire on the launchpad as an Apollo crew was training for a future flight. All three crew members were killed.
Their names were Virgil "Gus" Grissom, Edward H. White II, and Roger B. Chafee.
Nobody was killed on any flight to the moon.

I WATCHED APOLLO 11 TAKE OFF FROM KENNEDY SPACE CENTER IN FLORIDA (NOW CANAVERAL)
DON'T LET ANYONE TELL YOU IT WAS FAKE. YOU DON'T BUILD A ROCKET WITH 160,000,000 HORSE POWER AND THEN NOT GO SOMEPLACE WITH IT.
THE THINGS WE ARE DOING WITH THE SPACE SHUTTLE TODAY ARE MORE DIFFICULT THAN GOING TO THE MOON.
