There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Mark, im sorry to tell you, but these images are highly doubtful,that marlin has taken these images...
these images is on the official Blue angels website

http://www.blueangels.navy.mil/

so it are not Marlins pictures...

I know this is a little off topic and may sound messed up, but has a blue angles plane ever crashed during a display?  I know that 2 years ago a thunderbird crashed and Ive seen a few videos and pictures of display flights where a plane has crashed (like those two migs that hit each other in a loop)

Maybe not during a display but I think during a practice, the four F-4's crashed while doing a line abreast loop. That may have been the T-Birds though.

That was the T-birds, and it was actually a diamond formation.
I don't think any Blue jet has crashed during an airshow.  They certainly have during practices and stuff.  Once last year and the one before that was in about 99 or something and killed both pilots.

The Blue's have an excellent safety record, much better than that of the T-birds.  They had a few rough years.  
The day is always better when you're flying upside down.

How does their accident rate compare to the Red Arrows?
