Iirc snape didnt actually appear in the memory, he simply grabbed harrys shoulder and pulled him out. Also, harry has a habit of falling any time he tries something new(portkey to world cup, floo powder to borgin burkes, possibly apparation with dumbledore) and i dont recall him falling when he uses the pensieve so that would imply to me that he is in fact standing the entire time.

Just looked up the passage in which he first gets into the pensieve cause I was curious:

The tip of his nose touched the strange substance into which he was staring. Dumbledore's office gave an almighty lurch - Harry was thrown forwards and pitched headfirst into the substance inside the basin - But his head did not hit the stone bottom. He was falling through something icy cold and black; it was like being sucked into a dark whirlpool - And suddenly, he found hinself sitting on a bench at the end of the room inside the basin, a bench raised high above the others

This is Harry’s perspective, and it’s quite possible this is what the experience feels like despite looking like in the comic to a 3rd party.
