I remember in middle school being shown a video of a probe crash landing on a gas giant that was previously thought of as not having a surface. Does anyone else recall the same video? I'm trying to find out what planet that was because I find it entirely just amazing that someone wasted all that time sending a probe to this planet, found out it has a surface, then watching as their probe fell to the ground and broke.

You're probably thinking of Titan, which is a moon of Saturn

But the probe on Titan didn't crash land.
OP is probably thinking of Venus.

You remember incorrectly. It was Venus and nobody thought Venus was a gas giant. The probe didn't fell and broke, it stopped working because of the extreme conditions on the surface. And I don't think there is even a video, all I've seen were pictures. Unless what you saw was fictional or some kind of simulation in which case I can't help you.

Venus is not gas giant.
