The stock price is always at an equilibrium between buyers and sellers, i.e. the number of each is the same.

If it was always at equilibrium, price would always be the same. A crash occurs when there are no buyers. To generate demand people offer their shares at very low prices. Then hopefully someone will buy. But if no one does, the offer their shares at even lower prices, and that's how the tumble works.
