I touched a 777 engine before :D I'm proud lol yeh it's spinning the wrong way because the air flow is doing that...The engine is VERY moveable, you can push it with your pinky.
-
its spinning the wrong way because there is more than likely a wind blowing into the back of the engine forcing the the fan disk round!

No Dave Kovacs. The fanblades are in a dovetail, and the sound you are hearing is the blades moving outward....
-
It has a method called "free turbine" The fan has its own turbine stage, which is the last one, so it is attached only to it by their shaft.
-
Is there a clutch between the fan and the gearbox driving it or is the turbine shaft also spinning when the fan is windmilling when turned off ?

Why does it sound like something is radiling in the engine?

The fan blades are loose cause of the high speed of rotation and expansion. When the engine is spinning slowly (by wind or hands) the blades sounds like this "radiling" noise.

It could be catastrophical, but there is people to watch when engine starts.
