RE: what happens when
I think that they can shatter just the same as if you are underspinned. Someone that knows a lot more about bows than I do posted that a while back if I'm not wrong. I really am not sure what goes on that causes it to break. I'm guessing its because the arrows can't flex if they are too stiff so they just break? Ah I'm done making a fool out of myself someone will give you a good answer sooner or later

RE: what happens when
Shooting an over spined arrow is not dangerous at all. Many people do it on a regular basis with no problems.
The issue with overspined arrows is that they magnify form flaws and equipment setup problems. Out of a properly set up bow, they will fly just fine, however they will have a tendancy to wander if you don't do your part.
As a general rule, you should really try to get your arrows spined properly. This will give you the most forgiving arrow setup for your bow. If you can't get them spined perfectly, then you are better off being overspined than under.
