I don't think it could be dangerous for you (except perhaps a ball thrown in the
eye?), but it may hurt your LEGO parts... when I dismantled my CD-launcher, one
of the 2x1 Technic brick bearing the fast axle had a much bigger hole than
originally, the plastic missing was melted on the axle! (strangely enough, the
launcher was still working well...)

That's wise. The motor would be too weak to provide some torque after speed
multiplication.

Yep, my friend's GBC module makes a nice machine gun noise when supplied with
many balls ;o)
