I can see my pulse - is it dangerous?

I am hoping someone can answer this....

If I cross my legs I can sometimes see my heart beat on my leg - the skin just moves up and down slightly in time with by heart beat as if the blood is pumping through a vein. As soon as I uncross my legs it goes. Is this dangerous or a sign of a medical condition or is it quite normal? It is noticeable but not big in anyway - just looks odd!
