Yes. The capacitors can carry a high charge for a long time. Much longer than you’d think. Also there is a pressurized glass tube with very strong magnets which could lead to sever pinching or breaking the pressure tube.
It’s definitely not something people should do without knowing what they’re doing.
Not just the capacitors, the tube itself is a capacitor that handles multiple kilovolts, so you can easily hit the wrong side of the flyback transformer or poke the wrong part of the tube and get fried.
Not just an “Ouch, don’t do that again”, more of a heart just stops.
