How much damage could I accidentally do with pointers?

Solved by Ciccioo,
zero risk
your program will just crash, or not work properly
same for assembler
this is because your program doesn't really "see" the memory, but it uses a "virtual memory", it's like every executable has its own sandbox
there are ways to access memory outside of the sandbox, but you need more privileges and anyway it's not done via pointers, it's done via dedicated functions
