Bumping the prop, couldn't the pilot come up with something better than that? We always treat the prop with caution and make sure not to get too close to it - for this very reason. It is something ingrained into us from day one.
...which makes you think was the plane already started when they noticed the tie downs were still attached an they didn't bother to shut down the engine.
My money is on this one!
