We do have a clue, stuff like quantum theory are the most successful theories that have ever been made, nothing has gone against them yet. So we have a clue. We don't know for sure of course, but you don't know for sure if you'll wake up, if gravity will work tomorrow, or if the strong force will all of a sudden stop and the universe stop existing.
I posted about this in a thread a while back about why pure science research is still VERY necessary.
With this we're not approaching anywhere near the conditions that already exist in our universe now, let alone more extreme conditions that existed earlier in time.
Look at it a different way, if it does go wrong and destroy the earth or universe, it'll happen fast enough that you'll probably never know.

What?? No one says it's almost impossible to win the lottery, the exact odds of winning are known. If one in 16 million win, and 16 million play, chances are one will win.
