District 9 mistakes

During Wikus' congratulatory/home-coming party, after he throws up and falls to the floor, he falls on his right-hand side. But in the next shot, he hits the floor on his left-hand side. With benefit of the doubt, he might have rotated/spun during the fall, but withstanding the height of the table and that he didn't seem to have been rotating a moment prior to hitting the floor in the next shot, it's unlikely.
