Finally made it after literally dozens of tries.
What helped me:
Finding the bucket first and mark it on the map (use skimmer).
Set graphics to lowest quality, except for render distance, otherwise it is too hard to see the bucket.
Zoom out maximum
Aim for the gaps in the ledges, use that single needle next to the bucket for orientation, turn toward the big pillar and aim carefully. Still luck involved.
What I learned:
Close misses are deadly, because you crack your head on the rim of the bucket, if you land in the boiling water, you survive rof a short while and use the skimmer or the "jump out" prompt to survive.
If you use the position rewinder, it will get automatically triggered if you hit (no score).
I consider myself a bit clumsy and I generally have a hard time with jumping puzzles and the like. It took me way more tries than it will maybe take the average player, but my impression ist, this is more a test of patience than of dexterity.
