Watch as he rounds the 2nd pylon. He banks beyond knife edge (90 degrees) and hit the water before he knew what happened. He mentions in an interview from the hospital that he'll have to look at the video to figure out himself what happened.
It's interesting what follows in the second video link above. They had just gone through some training on getting out of the plane in the water.
