They are not risky at all really. If the pump works when you take it out it's most likely not going to fail. Even if the pump fails the computer will shut down after the CPU reaches like 95 degrees or whatever to prevent damage being done to it.
I'm assuming you are scared of the liquid falling on the components. I'll tell you that even if they do get on the components (which is extremely unlikely to actually happen) you should yank the power from the computer as fast as possible and use compressed air to dry it up. You should then buy some 90% alcohol to rinse the motherboard on the places that the coolant fell.
Now, I have to tell you right now, that the chances of this happening, is EXTREMELY unlikely. The pump might fail, but the tubes will NEVER burst randomly without warning. Check your unit for leaks when you get it, and if there's none, you are good to go. The things I told you about above were just a precaution. These are very safe coolers, and provide excellent cooling.
