It is too late shouting clear prop just before turning the key to start.

The time to shout clear prop (and check that it is clear) is before turning on the master switch because an electrical fault could result in the starter rotating the prop as soon as the master is turned on.

Engineers do it all the time but unfortunately few if any pilots.
