If one has the airspeed, then a turn is not dangerous at what-ever level.
Only if it's balanced. An over-ruddered skidding turn can be lethal.

This pilot did one of those to align with the runway. If he had the inside main wheel on the ground at the time, no problem (indeed, very skillfully done). If he was still in the air when he did it, he was lucky to get away with it.
