Oh come on, don't touch someone's valve unless they specifically ask you to. The valve turn is from the perspective of the valve, as @Storker said, much experience with a screwdriver? I'll pass on you as a buddy.I think it's actually pretty easy for someone to turn the valve the wrong way before a dive.
If you're standing on the left side of someone just before they jump in, and you reach across the tank and turn the valve counterclockwise (from your position), you are closing the valve.
