 CONT: In the wide shot of Kong climbing the Empire State Building,  he is climbing the western face of the structure. The financial  district is visible to the south in the background. The shot of him  atop the tower shows the Chrysler Building directing behind him.  That building being to the ESBs north east, that puts Kong on the  southern face of the building. When he falls, in the closer shot, he  falls back to the south east. Back in the wide shot, he falls off  the western side.
