At risk of what? Getting sick on airline food?
This nosegear thing has happened a number of times in the past few years. No
one, as far as I know, has had so much as a minor injury as a result.

There are 2,500 A320s in operation
(http://www.airbus.com/en/aircraftfamilies/a320/ ) putting more
passengers at risk each day than the 172s carry in a day/week/month.
