Risk 

(See also DANGER.)

dance on the razor’s edge To tempt fate, to invite trouble, to skate on thin ice. The allusion is to the very sharp and very thin edge of a straight razor. This expression is apparently an extension of the earlier phrase on the razor’s edge ‘in a very precarious or dangerous position,’ which dates from the early 17th century. George Chapman used the expression in his famous translation of Homer’s Iliad (1611):

Now on the eager razor’s edge, for life or death we stand.

lay it on the line To risk something valuable such as one’s career, reputation, or life; to speak or answer candidly, clearly, and categorically; to say precisely what one means; to give or pay money. In this expression, line is a figurative indication of demarcation between two extremes such as success and failure, clarity and obscurity, or debit and credit. Although originally limited to financial matters such as payment of debts, in contemporary usage lay it on the line usually refers to speaking frankly or risking something of importance.

I’ll lay it on the line for you, if you like. Are you thinking or asking my girl to marry you? (E. E. Sumner, Chance Encounter, 1967)

It was clear to the President [Nixon] that his credibility was on the line with the leaders of Hanoi. (Guardian, May 9, 1970)

Variations include put it on the line and on the line.

leap in the dark See DEATH.

play with fire To trifle with or become involved in a serious or potentially dangerous matter. This expression uses fire figuratively to represent any situation or entity which can be beneficial or useful, but which always holds the potential for harm or disaster.

I should like to sound a note of warning … one who plays with fire … can only expect to get burnt. (Daily Chronicle, October 9, 1907)

In contemporary usage, play with fire is often applied to romantic entanglements or sexual encounters which, by their very nature, carry the risk of moral or emotional distress.

She led me on, she played with fire, but she wouldn’t have me. (L. P. Hartley, The Hireling, 1957)

put one’s head in the lion’s (wolf’s) mouth To court danger; to ask for trouble. In the Aesop fable which gave rise to the phrase, the mouth belonged to a wily wolf; a gullible crane inserted its head to extract a bone. At some point in the phrase’s development, the wolf evolved into a lion—perhaps through confusion with beard the lion in his den, or perhaps because the size and ferocity of a lion seem more appropriate when the phrase is applied to human foolhardiness.

ride for a fall To invite injury or misfortune by reckless conduct; to court danger, ask for trouble; to behave so imperiously as to be headed for a comeuppance. One source conjectures a derivation from horse racing, saying a jockey “rides for a fall” when he deliberately loses a race, often by riding in such a way as to be thrown. Whether or not its origin is this specific, the literal phrase seems clearly to have its roots in horsemanship. The expression is now used almost exclusively in its figurative sense; conceptually it is akin to the well-known saying from Proverbs:

Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall. (16:18)

Russian roulette A risky activity or predicament, especially one which endangers a person’s life. In the game of Russian roulette, a revolver is loaded with one bullet, the cartridge cylinder is spun, the gun is pointed at one’s own head, and the trigger is pulled. If the revolver can hold six bullets, the odds are one in six that when the trigger is pulled, the person will kill himself. This “game” took its name from roulette, another game of chance in which a small metal ball is spun onto a revolving wheel, coming to rest in one of thirty-seven or thirty-eight numbered compartments. Its “Russian” designation probably derives from its being a popular pastime among the nihilistic intelligentsia of 19th-century Russia. Although both roulette and Russian roulette are forms of gambling, the stakes in the latter are considerably higher. Russian roulette is applied figuratively in situations where one takes his life into his own hands; for example, “It’s Russian roulette out there on the freeways at rush hour.”

take the bear by the tooth Recklessly to risk danger; to provoke to attack. The phrase’s meaning is self-evident, its origin unknown.


1. Probability and severity of loss linked to hazards. 2. See degree of risk. See also hazard; risk management.

Only tonsils and parts of intestines are banned as specified risk materials (SRMs) because they pose the greatest risk of transmitting BSE to humans.
Although the potential for this disease to cross the species barrier to other animals and humans is not known, zoos and veterinary services should be aware of the possibility of SEs in such animals so they can subsequently minimize the risk for foodborne SE infections in other animal species (especially Felidae) and humans by removing specified risk materials.
cattle herd, while our interlocking safeguards, including the removal of specified risk materials and the feed ban, protect animal and human health.
