Is it normal to worry about doing something to hurt yourself.

I don't want to kill myself in any way, but sometimes after i take the toast out of the toaster and I'm buttering it with a knife i think, what if i accidentally put the knife in the toaster and then visualize myself getting electrocuted. Another example is sitting in a car driving fast down a highway and thinking about what it would be like to jump out.
I usually just laugh about it because i would never actually do it or tell anyone about it, but its still disturbing.
