after the solo, there are 3 harmonics, and I'll try to desribe how to play them :

1. Play the natural harmonic on 7th fret on G-string
2. Grab your whammy-bar like you would increase 2-semitones, and release it slowly
3. Play the natural harmonic on 5th fret on G-string BUT 
   have the whammy bar already pushed down to increase 2 semitones
4. lower whammy-bar to normal position
5. Play the ARTIFICIAL harmonic on 3th fret on G-string bended two semitones higher 
   and have the whammy-bar one more time pushed down to increase 2 semitones
6. lower whammy bar to normal position, and release bending

To get this cool sound, Alexi doubles this part, I think with artifical harmonics.
But THIS is the way as he played it live!
If you don't understand my words, here is it in tabulature

This is the position of the whammy bar
