I assume you mean rev the RPM too high?

Taking the RPM too high will usually cause damage to the rod and/or main bearings from lack of oil flow. If you do it too many times or too high RPM the rod bearings will spin causing the knock associated with bearing damage. Once you hear the knock the engine doesn't have long to live.
