I'm not so sure about that. AFAIK, Digimon can digivolve whenever they want as long as their human partner is present to supply them with power. I don't recall it saying anywhere that the human has to be in danger. In fact, endangering yourself on purpose to force an evolution has even been shown to backfire, as is the case with SkullGreymon.

Of course, I could be mistaken, as it's been a while since I've seen an episode.
