      everywhere that has a strong enough blood supply, so pretty much everywhere including your eyes, your toes, your bellybutton if you like…

      Every part of your body gets blood delivered to it, so I presume that there’s a pulse everywhere. It might only be strong enough to be able to feel it in big veins though.

      Neck, wrist and groin are the common places. And it’s arteries where you feel a pulse because they contract.
