In this episode, the intrepid Antiques Geeks Jonny and Alexander talk about DANGER in the world of antiques and art.  They explore the murky world of pre-health and safety objet d'art, and how viewing an auction could be hazardous to life and limb.  Well, almost.  Alexander recalls a nearly nasty case of longcase clock vs wheelchair, Jonny spends some time playing with chemicals and recounting the tail of the poisonous rabbit.  He also reveals a somewhat explosive and potentially lethal skip dive, and talking of explosives, Alexander remembers a colleague's anecdote about the contents of an ammunition box found during a probate valuation.
