You certainly can get hurt or killed inside a TV, even one that's off and unplugged. That said, it sounds like your horizontal output chip is hosed... pretty normal sadly. ON many different brands of TVs those are also called ... tada "convergence IC"s Some models of projection TV actually have a fluid in the guns to lubricate and cool... I don't know the truth of it, as I Have never seen it, but I understand you can actually get a bacterial infestation in the oil, and the fluid must be replaced.. That one's purely 2nd hand tho.
