'Wicked', like those gyarus use them for could work. It could be 'wickedly awesome' or 'wickedly bad' depending on context would be the best choice for these kinds of situation.

'Goddamn!' or it's variation, 'Holy shit!' also works.

I think "Oh shit! This is even more risky than I thought!" works well. It's not like there is a rule that says you have to translate different instances of a word the same way.

This is perfect.
