Use a needle or dressmaking pin to get the end out and then pull with tweezers. Sometimes you can push them back out with your thumbnail if they are hard enough but if not then you will need to coax it out with the needle.

What happens when you leave a deep splinter in your foot?

Well, it depends. Sometimes splinters can get infected and mess up your foot. But usually nothing happens. You can get a splinter that's under your skin out by soaking it with warm/hot water. If the area where the splinter was is red, tender, and/or hurts really badly, it is probably infected and you should call a doctor to get it out.
