If you're talking about the harmonics (sounds like a high pitched note) then that's pretty easy. You lighlt put your finger on the fifth fret on the 3 string for the first one and pick. Don't press down on the fret just touch your finger lightly on the string. Then pick the string like normal. Then hold the tone and lift the whammy bar. The second time he does it he hits the second string instead of the third.

Alexi uses the tremolo bar. Here´s what you gotta do:
1. hit a naturural harmonic (press slighty the string for example from the 5. fret.)
and
2. pull the tremolo bar´s "stick" up.
The best way to do this is to use a floyd rose -type bridge. You can´t do this with out a tremolo bar.

Thanx Cerberus, Suatana
I tried that once on my friends floyd rose but broke a string.
I dont have a floyd rose so I cant be doing that till i get a new guitar.

Vai has a whole section on whammy bars that you guys should check out.
