never heard of it, but i would assume it means the same as walking on thin ice.

I think you've got a mixed metaphor there. Walking on thin ice means you're in a precarious position and it would be easy for something bad to happen. Walking under a ladder is thought to be bad luck.

I think you have your idioms mixed - it sounds like you're talking about 'walking on thin ice'? If that's the case then it means you're involved in a risky plan of action that is likely to be harmful to you and could have been avoided - it's mostly used in describing a social dynamic between two or more people.
For example, if a guy is flirting too much with girls and his girlfriend notices, he is likely to be 'walking on thin ice' with her.
