【适用场合】
out on a limb (informal)
固执己见，即使不被别人看好，充满危险，仍要去做某事
处于一种危险、尴尬或者易受攻击的境地
If someone goes out on a limb, they do something they strongly believe in even though it is risky or extreme, and is likely to fail or be criticized by other people.

有关这个短语，我觉得有必要解释一下。
limb可以用来指人的四肢，或者是树的枝干。
如果你站在一个伸出去的枝干上，就很危险，容易摔。

eg: Are you prepared to go out on a limb (= risk doing sth. that other people are not prepared to do) and make your suspicions public?
你准备好了要冒险这么做吗，把你的怀疑公之于众？

eg: That politician went out on a limb and publicly questioned the views of his party.
那位政客铤而走险，公开质疑自己政党的观点。

eg: He does not want to go out on a limb and try something completely new.
他不想冒险去尝试一些新东西。

fess up
（口语）承认某件事是真的；承认做了某件错事
to admit that something is true or that you have done something wrong:
eg: It's time to fess up, did you spend all that money?
到了你坦白的时候了，你是不是把那笔钱都花光了？

eg: It's time for the President to fess up.
是时候让总统坦白，说出实情了。

如果是fess up to sth.
表示承认做了这件事（不太好的事）
