When it's toughened glass it's not exactly dangerous because it explodes into little cubes. I had a skylight explode over me when I was installing one once. My main concern was keeping my balance on top of the ladder, not the glass. Float glass won't explode as far as I know but more likely to shatter into dangerous shards.

I think you mean tempered, and it’s still sharp just much much smaller pieces which are less likely to leave deep gashes

Tempered and toughened are Interchangeable words in regard to glass
