Its just physics. If you know the initial trajectory angle and speed, and the terrain, and ignore air resistance, the point of impact can be easily determined on the back of a napkin. Things like air resistance can be taken into account by trial runs (dead pig?). By dousing the slide just prior to the event will lead to consistent initial conditions. Judging by the body dynamics of the nut, I'd guess he's skilled at this sort of thing (diving?) and a cool cat. It would be interesting to see what was done prior to all this - How was it fine tuned? How many now-dead divers went before him?

One thing that does seem fishy to me is that the target pool seems to be sitting on a wood support with hard, sharp corners exposed. I would think that anyone who would devise such an event would not let that happen. Or maybe it's all fake.
