I will add my 2c worth from the perspective of a beater, walking and occasionally standing stop -in front of the guns on pegs. I can tell you all that it is not a particularly pleasant feeling to watch the shooter on his peg flipping up the barrels to the action. Unfortunately this method of closing after reloading seems to be the norm on most shoots nowadays. A sad reflection on the competency of these shooters and their ignorance of the technical aspects of shotgun mechanics.
