Hi Tom,

This is the one I would nominate as correct:

[Tom]

Thanks, Alan a lot!

Please see below!

The danger is all around you.

The shows here that the speaker and the listener both know which danger is being talked about,OK?

When we say:

Is he out of danger?, we ( both the speaker and listener) also know which danger, don't we? Then why not: Out of the danger?

Yours

Hi Tom

"Out of danger" is a very standard collocation.

If you want to be a rebel and/or want to sound eccentric, then just try using the word the in this particular phrase. Native speakers will definitely notice your "originality".
