What would happen if a man's testicles were crushed? would he be able to father a child?

Possibly - 3 ways: If scrotal trauma results in injury to the vas deferens or epididymis, scar tissue can obstruct sperm transport. If bilateral, then no swimmers get to the ejaculate. If the blood supply is injured, the testicle can atrophy (shrivel), resulting in loss of sperm and testosterone. Finally, testis injury can result in production of anti-sperm antibodies which can interfere with fertility.

Testicle trauma: Severe testicular trauma is a very painful situation causing probable cessation of sperm formation. A sperm count can tell subsequent fertility.

Yes if only one crus: If only one testis is crushed than the other testis can compensate and one will be able to father a child.
