No, you won't brake your neck.
You can stand with most of the weight on your hands, or with most of the weight on your head, depends on your strength and skill.
To try it for the first time, I'd recomend using a small pillow, and have a wall behind you to assist you from falling back.
Fase the wall. Put the pillow on the floor by the wall. Squat. Put your hands by the sides of the pillow, or maybe a little closer to your feet than to the wall. Put your head on the pillow but not too close to the wall (like, 6 inches away, or your head will roll to the wall later and that hurts). Straighten your knees. Keep you neck straight. Feel you spine coming into vertical balanced line with your head. (At this ponit, if your head is touching the wall - you're too close to the wall. If your back is touching the wall - you're curving your back. Keep it straight.)
Now your legs are not supporting your weight anymore.
Now use the muscles of your lower body to pull your legs up. Now you can straighten your legs. The wall will help you not to fall back.
Just make sure you're keeping your neck very straight. This should be OK.
