Are Asbestos Floor Tiles Dangerous

Is it safe to remove asbestos flooring tiles yourself? How dangerous is it?
We have discovered asbestos tile under the carpet and want to put in hardwood floors.
You can do it, but you must be careful. The trick is to not make the asbestos airborne, so do not break up the tile. As long as it stays imbedded you are fine, however I would still take the precaution of wearing a good quality mask.
I am not a professional, so do not take this opinion as such…I was given the same advise and had seen some pamphlets to the same effect.
