That's fine. You ask 10 people to write a scene for BOOH then you will get 10 different versions. As Meat has said in interview, everyone pictures these songs in their mind very differently.
If the context was say about an outlaw/renegade being chased by the Police then I would keep the crash in, but for Peter Pan it doesn't make sense (to me).

Well if Jim has written the scene with a crash, then the 'crash' section of the song will of course work. I can't see a crash (and someone dying) making sense at all, except if Bat is the last song and Jim decides to kill Peter off, but I wouldn't write it like that.

Never heard this before. On first impressions it sounds silly, and how do you do that on stage?

I can see 'Revved Up' as the opening number, but I would prefer 'Bat'. See my new post shortly as to how I envisage 'Revved Up'.
