For a healthy 25 year old the normal RESTING heartbeat is 50 (expecially athletes) to mid 80's on average. If you climb a flight of stairs it could go to 110 and be normal and if you run it goes even higher with no ill effects. Also if you are running a fever your heartbeat goes up.
This question has no correct answer unless we know what you are doing or if you are running a fever, etc.

Dangerously too fast? No. Generally speaking, too fast for a resting heart rate? yes. (Normal by definition is between 60 and 100) Occasionally people will have an abnormally fast heart rate intrinsically. It is more likely that there is a reason, however. Fever, too much stimulant (caffeine, cold medicine) metabolic acidosis, obesity, hyperthyroidism, and anemia are just a few things that can affect a heart rate. You should make an appointment with your family practitioner to discuss it, unless it has an obvious cause that you can change - like cutting back on the caffeine. Good luck.

Are you resting, at least for 10 minutes before you check your rate, or walking around? If you are exercising it should be higher. The normal resting rate is (at least by doctors standards) 80 to 100 BPM. If I am close to 100 BPM (beats per minute) I feel weak. I also have low blood pressure. I have discovered that medical science is wonderful but the grey areas might be too wide for some individules. Example. I feel my best when my beats per minute are 70. not 80-100.

If your heart rate is 110 at rest, after 10 minutes of resting and checked properly by you and then confirmed by some one else; then you need to look into this further.
Most common causes are:
undiagnosed mild hyperthyriodism
Medications
Arrhytmias (SVT)
and Innapropriate sinus tachycardia.
The thing to keep in mind is that although there is svery low chance with that rate, there is always a pottential for developing what is called Tachy-Cradiomyopathy.
you need to see a Cardiac Electrophysiologist for this EP doctor)

Depends what you're doing. Look up "American Heart Association" and see what an average heart rate is for your age and level of activity. You might also try WebMD.
