We consider jump processes which has only downward jumps with size a fixed fraction of the current process. The jumps of the processes are interpreted as crashes and we assume that the jump intensity is a nondecreasing function of the current process say $\lambda(X)$ ($X=X(t)$: process). For the case of $\lambda(X)=X^{\alpha}, \alpha>0$, we show that the process $X$ should explode in finite time, say $t_e$, conditional on no crash. For the case of $\lambda(X)=(\ln X)^{\alpha}$, we show that $\alpha =1$ is the borderline of two different classes of processes. We generalize the model by adding a Brownian noise and examine the blow up properties of the sample paths.
Keywords: crash, explosion, jump diffusion
