Top of the fence is just that the "top". The area facing the sky, not that part facing the field.

The front of the fence/wall facing the field is considered to be part of live ball territory which is why an OF can stand on top of a collapsed fence and still catch a fly ball for an out.

IMO, the ball landed in fair territory and then left the field of play. GRD.
