Vertical speed at touchdown

I am into flight simulators and have always wondered what would be a landing which would most definitely end as a crash, on the average airliner?

I have seen some people on a simulator with a vertical speed at touchdown of -1,000 ft/min. What would be good cutoff point to say that anything above that reading, should be considered a crash?
