Cycling a pump-action shotgun as done by the Rule of Cool. After firing, the wielder lets go of the trigger and holds the gun vertically by the forward grip in his other hand. He then jerks the gun sharply upward, letting its inertia and weight work the pump, then levels the gun and fires again. A variation involves a lever-action firearm, where the character does something similar but holds on to the lever only, letting the gun's recoil and weight cause the handle to pull itself.
As seen in this shotgun tutorial video, attempting this in real life is possible, but inefficient. It also puts a lot of unnecessary strain on the gun's moving parts, and it's unsafe, as a considerable amount of force is required to rack the slide. It's very possible to lose your grip and send a now-loaded firearm flying across the room. On the other hand, this can be justified if the user in question is handicapped.
There is an actual technique for cycling a pump action with one hand (only used if your other hand is incapacitated), but it entails placing the butt on the ground and cycling against it, which is far safer and more controlled. A similar technique can be used to cycle the slide of a pistol, using the edge of a table or something to press on the front of the slide while not blocking the barrel; like the one-handed shotgun pump, there's also a variant that's more common in Hollywood but also more likely to break something if you were to try it in real life (that is, catching the sights on the edge of a table).
Obviously, this move requires a pump-action shotgun (because pump-action rifles apparently don't exist in Hollywood), so a semi-automatic or bolt-action shotgun (yes, there is such a thing) won't work.
Related to Gun Twirling and Unorthodox Reload. Sub-Trope of Dramatic Gun Cock. See also Gangsta Style for a similar Cool, but Inefficient way to handle pistols. Contrast Lock and Load, which is going through a proper-use routine to show that character does know how to use a gun.

In Sengoku Basara 3, Saika Magoichi does the Terminator flipcock reload after a charged shot from the shotgun. It counts as a melee attack if enemies get close enough to you.

Terminator 2: Judgment Day
While the T-800 is riding his motorcycle and chasing John and the T-1000 down the canal, he spins his lever-action Winchester 1887 to reload it. Justified in-universe by the T-800 having metal "bones" in his fingers that can withstand the stress of this action. Also justified by how mind-blowingly badass he looked doing it (also by the fact he was driving a motorcycle at the time and needed one hand to keep control of the bike; when both hands are available, the T-800 cocks the gun normally). The prop shotgun that Arnold Schwarzenegger carried for the scene had an enlarged loop on the lever, and a lighter aluminum barrel, allowing him to do the trick without breaking his fingers. At one point, he mistakenly flipcocked the non-prop shotgun and almost did break his fingers.
Sarah Connor does it at the end when shooting the T-1000 in the foundry; justified in that her right arm is wounded (though she still uses it for support while firing). Doubly justified in that Linda Hamilton spent a lot of time working out in preparation for this role, and wanted to show off her newfound skill.

This shows up thrice throughout the Saints Row series.
The Playa will do this in Saints Row when he's reloading a Tombstone or an AS12 Riot while running.
In Saints Row 2, the Boss will also do this when firing the Tombstone while they have a human shield.
In Saints Row: The Third, the Boss will perform the lever-action flip-cock when firing the Grave Digger while carrying a human shield.

Happens a couple of times in Supernatural, although the boys tend to maintain proper firearms discipline. Usually averted, in that they're often just using double-barreled or lever-action shotguns and pumping is not a factor, but Sam seems to prefer a sawed-off Ithaca 37 (although it's often being used to prop up the lid of the Impala's weapons compartment) in later seasons, so it does happen from time to time.

Marathon features a double barreled Sawed-Off Shotgun with an Unorthodox Reload via Gun Twirling. This allows the Security Officer to dual wield shotguns and reload with no problems. The manual lampshades this by saying that the in-universe mechanics would be too complicated to understand.

The Resident Evil remake for the Nintendo GameCube has a battle with a giant snake after Jill finds Richard bitten by said snake. If Jill can find some serum to tend to his wound, he'll rest for a while and then charge in when Jill meets the snake. When he does, he pumps his shotgun with one hand, owing to the fact that his other arm is still seriously wounded.

North does this, then throws the gun to South, who shoots in season 9 of Red vs. Blue. It makes sense, though—he's wearing power armor that greatly enhances his strength and the gun was picked up from someone killed earlier, anyway (so he doesn't care if it ends up in bad condition).
Wash also tries this in season 8 and again it does make sense. First, he was hanging on to a moving car and had a rifle in his other hand, so he only had one hand free to attempt a reload. Second, the shotgun in question belonged to Sarge, so much like the above, he wouldn't care much if he damaged it.

Postal 2: Paradise Lost has this as a consequence of being able to go Guns Akimbo with most guns, with the standard pump shotgun getting new pumping animations where the Dude throws the gun back to grab the pump, works it with one hand, then tosses it forward again to bring it back up to fire again. The lever-action shotgun, being a Winchester 1887, also naturally gets the typical Terminator-style flip-cocking animation, whether you're using it one or two at a time.

Optimus Prime occasionally does this in the Transformers Film Series. He does it twice with his dual ion blaster pistols in Revenge of the Fallen. At the end of Dark of the Moon, he does it with Megatron’s handheld fusion cannon, which is even designed to resemble a shotgun; justified by his arm being severed a few minutes earlier.

In Call of Duty: Black Ops, the Stakeout is pumped in this manner when picked up.
In Call of Duty: Black Ops II, the Remington 870 MCS is pumped in the same way as it reuses that animation.

In True Grit, he spins his lever-action shotguns to reload them on horseback.

His introduction in Stagecoach features him firing a warning shot then spin cocking his lever-action rifle.

Near the end of the first season of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, as a result of having her other arm mangled by machine gun fire, the Major does this with a straight-pull bolt-action anti-materiel rifle (while the weapon is different, the effect is much the same) with one hand in a fashion rather similar to the "proper" way to cycle a pump-action shotgun with only one hand, though she braces the weapon against her thigh instead of against the ground and uses the recoil of the gun to lift it back up so she can cycle it again, no fewer than eight times while shooting a Mini-Mecha at point-blank range. The pilot of the Mini-Mecha is suitably terrified by the cyborg standing on his armored exoskeleton and suffocating him by caving in his frontal armor plate so far he can't breathe.

South Park episode "Woodland Critter Christmas" has Santa Claus do this before killing the titular Satanic critters. He does it again when he's about to kill Kyle (who's possessed by the Anti-Christ). Stan stops him from pulling the trigger.

DUSK's single shotgun is a lever-action model, and whether you're using it solo or two at once, you reload them after each shot by spincocking them Terminator-style.

Played straight but justified in Splinter. Dennis was infected by one of the black spines early in the movie, and he had to cut off his arm to stop it from consuming him entirely. He's only got one arm to work the pump, and he can't stop to brace it against anything.
